Saw this on the Book of Faces courtesy of Curtis. How well can you differentiate shades of color?

Color perception test

It scores like golf. The lower the better.

In reply to Duke:

I got a Zero. PERFECT! (32, male, no corrective lenses)

While taking the test, I found myself moving my head around to make sure that the angle of my LCD screen wasn't affecting my color.

That's a lot of swapping to do.

Nice, I got a 20. I sort of rushed the last two a bit though.

I got a zero also. 48 years old, male, lifelong glasses wearer. I think Curtis posted a 10. My other friend got a 128.

I got a 6. Very surprising to me. I struggle with reds and oranges rather badly in real life.

I got a 4. I'm actually surprised at that since I have trouble telling dark colors apart in practice--- mostly dark blues, blacks and browns

I got a 10. I think I could have done better, but the farthest right "square" for each color range was on a diffrent row than the rest making it a PITA to do the last few colors

33 years old and I got a 3.

Unfortunately, I am now cross-eyed after after completing the test. Whew.

I got a 3. Not bad for a 50 year old male with glasses, though I was hoping to do better due to doing graphic design for a living. The three were in the middle of the blue/turquoise range, and could be monitor calibration.
