This is a legit test, not one of those ones where you're looking at the color pattern and focusing really hard and a scary monster jumps out and screams :lol:

By row 2 I was starting to see squares everywhere, kind of like the Tetris Effect (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetris_effect). Colors were changing as I would focus on them, like that one optical illusion. I had to pause and come back.

When I finished, my score was an 11! 0 is perfect. I think 1,000+ is the worst.

Note that your monitor may have some effect on your results.

Edit - sorry this may be the wrong forum.

That was frustrating! I also scored 11, but being 54, I guess it's pretty good.

Well, now I see why I never made it as an automotive painter....

11 is pretty good actually.

being a perfect 0 on that test would only mean you can disseminate from a wider array of colours the minute difference between them.

so, if you are not a hunter of green insects in the forest, it's likely that 11 will be plenty enough colour differentiation acuity.

I didn't do work a dang. I scored 85. But, you still can't whip me.
