Post by benol »

I'm red-green colorblind and I HATE it! It renders many things completely useless for me. I can't use infrared goggles, I can't join the millitary (but that's a good thing). I can't fly an airplane, and many other things. also, a less important thing, but is the BitTorrent logo red or green? I can't tell.

It's kind of a subdued, grayish green.

I can see color, but without glasses everything more than about a foot in front of me is a blur.

Be thankful you can't join the military, you'll wind up overseas and will probably come back looking like Lieutenant Dan. :P

That reminds me I do a great Forest Gump impersonation.

I'm red-green color blind like you. It really disappointed me that I can't fly a plane except on Flight Simulator X.

Are you still allowed to drive with the red-green colorblind factor?

I believe they can stil see the light. So if they remember top is red. Bottom is green they should be fine. (colors of my country, don´t know how it is in the usa)

yes. that's why traffic lights have a blue-green for green and an amber for red. It only confuses me with darker shades. and some things I know what color they are just because I know what color they're supposed to be. for example, stop signs are red.

Actually, belive it or not, with the current kill/loss ratio over there right now, your chances of dying or getting battered up really bad is less than what it'd be if you were driving a motorcycle!

that's right, DRIVING a MOTORCYCLE is MORE DANGEROUS THAN A WARZONE! :lol:

I think he would be.

This program gets a pixel's color and gives it to you in RGB.

It minimizes to tray first, so click on that.
