  4. I scored about a 30. I have no idea how good that is. At then end it had a screen for comparing your score to others, but all that had was the high and low scores for people my age. That's not useful.It's a neat test, though. When I first looked at it I thought it was like a hardcore version of an eye exam.

  5. Damn. I scored a 15. Since each of my eyes sees colors differently (there's a slight hue divergence; one eye sees things more sharply, skewed to the blue, the other sees things more warmly, skewed to the red), I was trying to double-eye it; looking with one eye only, then the other. Had I not been going for speed, I think I would have realized that a triple-eye look would have been better: Just one eye, then both, then just the other.

  13. I got 153. Since I was told the highest score for my age/gender group was 1520, I'm guessing that's not very good.

  17. Nice work to all of you who got zeroes. I got a 7. Better than I expected.Very interesting link, Glenn.

  18. I got 127. And I'm color blind. ): But that's bullshit; I'm coloring comics and I dare anyone try and stop me. =P

    1. You wouldn't be the first color-blind comic artist to color comics. Howard Chaykin might be the all-time champ in that regard.

  19. My color vision is 0 (perfect)! That makes me happy because I am a colorist! If anyone needs a colorist plz contact me. I am looking for work! Based on your information, below is how your score compares to those of others with similar demographic information. * Your score: 0 * Gender: Male * Age range: 20-29 * Best score for your gender and age range: -4 * Highest score for your gender and age range: 15200 ( Perfect )99 ( High )

  21. I got a 20. I suspect that, under better conditions (including using a monitor that's not ten years old and bought second-hand for $50), i might have done better.But maybe not. I'm bookmarking it for whan i *do* manage to get a better monitor.
