I got result "You have perfect color vision!" and comparing to others it says:
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: 30-39
    * Best score for your gender and age range: 0
    * Highest score for your gender and age range: 1252
Don't know how to save an image of result and to post it here...

p.s. It also depends on monitor quality and calibration...

I have 0 also...It would be so nice if that would be the only factor important to make a success in this business, but it's not that way  ;)

I scored 10 on a non-calibrated monitor.  I wonder what my score would be on a calibrated one! :)

8, non-calibrated monitor.  And I feel dizzy now.  :)

It seems 8 is a very bad result, 99 would be the highest score.  Is that correct?  ???

nop, the lower the better, zero being perfect, so 8 in good

i guess the score is the number of mistakes you had: i had 7 mistakes (all in the greens ???) and scored 7 (in a non-calibrated crt monitor).

After just calibrating my monitor I got a score of 3 - this was a useful exercise for my monitor :)

Cool! My monitor (and my eyes!) seems to be perfectly calibrated  ;D

I scored 0, age 30-39.
It's true that men often have a problem with green-blue hues, they cannot always identify subtle tones. ("Darling, wear the teal shirt tonight, it will match my turquoise dress!" "You mean the blue one or the green one?" hehe)

Great test, thanks for sharing!

PS: Whitechild, you are wrong! IT IS good for the business, it helps you make perfect isolations!  :D
