Test your hue sensitivity

[Blaise]

Here's a color test to see how sensitive you are to hues. (http://www.xrite.com/custom_page.aspx?PageID=77)

The lower the score, the better. I actually got a zero, which means I "have perfect color vision" - so I guess that's good.:)

If you have less than perfect color vision, it will show you which colors you may have problems with.

[Hai]

Heh, kinda fun. I got a 4 :P

Hey Blaise, already been posted in art discussion here:

No worries, its a good test so people in the lounge who don't frequent art discussion can check it out.

[sparetire]

I got a 56, does that mean i'll never reach my hopes and dreams of being a successful artist?

[Straight Edge Ryan]

got an 8

D'oh! Sorry, I did a search before posting but used different keywords. Oh well.

[Parsakoira]

Yay perfect score!

[Saturns Gate]

Yeah I know man, did a search myself but had to find it again. no worries. :)

[Slash]

20 at first attempt, then 12 when i looked over the edge of my icky dirty glasses..

[Quote]

I got a four. I am content.

How many people having trouble with the green-blue region?

[Demo]

18 but i rushed through it

[ChaoticKnight]

I got a 16. It was all in the blue/purple region... might be my monitor as well. Laptops ftl.

[oalexis]

i got a 10, apparently i suck at detecting green blue differences

[alesoun]

I got zero; a perfect score........ but I see bands at the top and bottom of the squares. Is that normal?

Actually, I'm improving; my first try was 29, the second was 12, and I got A+ this (third) time.

[wassermelone]

I did this a while back, got a 0.

Everyone realizes anything about 90 or so is way above average right?

[Dan!]

thought i would do bad-i got a four ..that's cool.

[Jabo]

Hm, I got 60. But better than the poor guy scoring 1520 :D

[apple hooks]

Wow, 4, better than I thought I'd get.

[nate01776]

heres the real question.. whats the HIGHEST you can score??

[JL.Alfaro]

i got a 23, but then I threw up...so I think it doesnt count

edit: I think its got a lot more to do with monitor calibration than actual eye-to-hue coordination

[Senira]

I got a 14. The blue/purple was what killed me.

[Sundance]

0...major shock for me.

[Blaise]

Yeah, I've wondered just how much monitor calibration plays a part in the score. Although if I got a zero simply because my calibration is good, then that's good news too.:)

[Cthogua]

I got a 14, great, something else to fuel my inferiority issues :P

It seems that all my mistakes were in a really narrow band of blue-green, weird..cause that's really one of my favorite colors.

[Jacob Kobryn]

I got a 15.
It was the bottom two that messed me up. I got the first two perfectly.

[bumskee]

oh i got 0 too.. damn.. no excuse for being shitty then. crap..

[Jacob Kobryn]

You ate a lot of beans? You're sick with a sore stomach? There are tons of excuses man... it has nothing to do with color.

[Lukias]

That 3rd row.. blue green was mother hard. A bunch of those squares appeared identical.

I got 4

[kidult]

Its more about monitor calibration than anything else - on my crt a perfect score on my old man's crappy lcd 28!?

[ArtZealot]

This is just pointless spam, but for some odd reason i read this post, but just in bits and pieces and i thought kidult said he got a critical hit when he was playing the colors game. I probably need to stop playing so much team fortress 2.

[poise]

That was cool.
felt like color and design all over again without the tedious mixing of gouache.
The computers vibration on the screen made my eyes a bit tired though, maybe that's why I don't paint digitally. :/
I thought I sucked at color, but got a 0, Weee!!
Now If only I could draw a perfect circle I would be the bestest artist EVA!!!!

Min: yeah maybe you should work on that. ;P

Love you...xoxo

[Pavel Sokov]

27 :(
that was very difficult

[Eva K]

Uhm .. 41. Heh. Well could've done worse :)

(something also tells me that I need to calibrate my monitor :| )

[Clint Kisor]

I got a three. :]

[kingshaj]

i got a zero! but i had figured out how to cheat half way through tried not too..but the "cheat" was distracting and had to skew my results .... not really a cheat but a trick.


but i think it did identify my problem spots ..(took me way way longer in the violets and blue -greens )

[kingshaj]

this wasn't the /cheat/trick....but:
shouldn't all equal when viewed in grey scale? equal value? they aren't
its been too long since art school..sigh

[Peter Coene]

On my laptop monitor I got a 20 and on my desktop I got a 3

I'm guessing either I was more attentive or else this is an indicator as to the quality of my monitors.

[tobbA]

16. I'm quite content considering my monitor is really bleach color wise... :)

[Clochette]

"You have perfect color vision!"
Youhouu!
Shit, I see little squares everywhere now! xD

It's funny! But it is limited by the monitor... We are not equal because we don't have the same screens.
Mine is good apparently! :D

[DigitallyDumbfounded]

I score around 40 on my macbook and 20 on my external tft monitor. Repeatedly.
I got so insecure about my color vision AND my monitor calibration that I wildly calibrated around. :x
I think what really has an impact on the results is gamma though. I mean, my macbook has a different gamma and even if I put it to 2.2 it still looks different from the tft??
Ack! I'll do a search on calibration. At least I then know that it's really my colorvision that sucks. I mean, needs improvement. :meow:
Funny that the blue/green discrimination is so troublesome. I mean supposingly most cones are activated when perceiving green, so I thought that would make it easier. Really interesting. I wonder what non-artsy people averagely score. (I at least hope it's related to training!)

[Black Sun]

0, perfect.

[nicolas]

felt like color and design all over again without the tedious mixing of gouache.


god, I hated that class, which is why i didnt do this :oneye:

[sheetghost]

I got a 4, I had problems with the yellow/green.

[BANNED_For_POOPY_PANTS]

I got an 8.. and a headache..

[kab]

I got 0, woohoo

I study graphic design and have noticed that some of my classmates can´t see differences in hues that I can. Nice ability to have. :)

[spyshagg]

Zero.
Didn't expect a zero :wtf:

Fairly quick too. about 3 minutes.

my cheap TFT must be pretty good

[kab]

I don´t really know, the first line took about as much time for me as the three others combined.

[spyshagg]

just tried again to make sure. Zero. About 4 minutes

cool

[D@niel]

Scored 4:(

[Diphallia]

I got 7 :)

[D.Labruyere]

this wasn't the /cheat/trick....but:
shouldn't all equal when viewed in grey scale? equal value? they aren't
its been too long since art school..sigh

In theory if I remember correctly; yes, though I don't know if there is a difference between 'warm' and 'cool' colors when putten in grayscale. But on the computer this isn't the case anyway. Just place two different hue's with the same saturation and value beside eachother in photoshop, and put it on grayscale. They'll won't be equal either. Why and how this comes I don't know.

I got zero btw :)

[James.C]

11, my eyes, my eyes!!

[Grief]

first try
that may have been the hardest thing i have ever done in my life

[Minkie]

I got a 12, all of my mistakes where in the blue-purple area. And I know my monitor is messed up, it makes everything have a purple sheen over it. I just don't know how to calibrate a monitor.

[Jessica]

I got a 3. I messed up on green.

[Mrianna]

I got a 7. Weee.

Then again I don't know how to calibrate this monitor so I never have. hah.

[DigitallyDumbfounded]

Woohoo. 10, after gamma correction on my macbook. :D
Was way easier now. Also, I found it to be less straining for my eyes if I kept switching the bar wich I was working on. But blue and green it still is.

[Gerulaitis]

First try on my old crt - 0.
2nd try on my even older, barely working secondary crt - 1.
3rd try on myfather's new lcd - 22. Errors being all over the place.

The sad fact that crts of any model are no longer available in the entire country I live in ticks me off... slightly... not so slightly...

[shamandalie]

Yay, a 12 on my lappie lol. Was fun. :P

[biglu]

nineteen

[Arhan]

got 4, weak point being the yellows. :(

[Mossi]

Woah...

I got 0..

big surprise there.


And, btw, i´m on my MacBook, so: hooray yet again for Apple.

[davi]

i got 994 cause it looked like too much work and i just wanted the answers

[Dirty C]

22 - though my monitor saturation is pretty low, I must admit that's about what I figured. I've always had some difficulty at low saturation. I'm willing to bet Whit would get a -20 if it were possible.

[Steph Laberis]

Got a 0. *phew*

If I didn't I would need to either change careers or get a new monitor ;)

[Dile_]

I hate this fucking test :P i keep getting between 0 and 30 everytime i do it.. I need to take breaks to 'refresh' my eyes, otherwise I feel dizzy looking at those..

[Costau D]

I'm R/G blind, and I got a 68 first go. Should I give up on art?...

[Diphallia]

Ok, scored perfect at home.

And I calibrated this monitor by HAND!
(the school screens are calibrated by hardware)

ah, scored 8 at the other monior (didn't take as long time though)

[t y l e r]

Yay perfect score!

Ditto.

That was actually pretty tough.
