Take this fun and simple on-line color IQ test and learn how you see color. (http://www.xritephoto.com/ph_toolframe.aspx?action=coloriq)

Good test. I didn't do too well, I have cataracts in both eyes (left one very bad) and the squares kept "floating" on me. I got a 39.

While I was taking the test I was wondering how your opinion of the color affected your score. I'm not a big fan of pink or red so it didn't surprise me that the dusky pinks were the 3 colors I missed.

I'm also wondering if the people who prefer saturated colors in their pictures would do better than people who do not favor that "look" as much. I guess this would be the opposite to people who have a lot of taste buds not liking strongly flavored foods....

Very thought provoking!!

This was really interesting. Thanks for posting.

I rolled my chair away from the monitor a few feet and I could see some changes from my first choices that needed to be made before I hit submit. I did this test before and I think the last time I had a 7 so maybe a little more distance from the monitor makes a difference in seeing some of the shades ... it did for me anyway.

Your Score = 4
Gender = Male
Age Range = 30-39

I am currently doing this on my monitor at work and I have noticed in the past that the way things look on this computer are VASTLY different than on my laptop. I may have to try this at home tonight and see if I get a different score. :3dglasses

Yup, work also, on a laptop with a really crappy monitor connected. The colors on this monitor are horrible and I can't seem to correct it. It nor the laptop has any controls to fix the calibration. I've done this before with much higher scores at home. My score on the work computer.....

Your Score = 8
Gender = Male
Age Range = 30-39

I dunno man, 4 is pretty good I think. I got a 39, but also my optometrist just told me not to drive until after I get the new lenses, so...

Hey, you're right! I thought the higher number was better.
