Member You - Colorblind People, Can They Really Read Your Web Site?
I Never NoticedMy father was the glue that held my connection to a hundred or more relatives together and since he passed away, my family has become smaller and smaller for me. Pictures have disappeared, replaced occasionally by emails and new names. And I never noticed. The branches of my relationship tree prune themselves. And I am diminished.Sadly, that is normal and usual, part of the constantly

This software is equipped with an on screen Russian keyboard which is situated under the text field of the notepad like editor. The keys on the screen based keyboard is displayed with both Latin and Cyrillic characters. The Cyrillic characters are displayed in red and the Latin are displayed in Black.
One day, I got an angry e-mail from one users of the product.
He wrote
Don’t you know that “so and so” many people have one form or another of colorblindness. I can’t read the Russian character in the keyboard. Could you change the color of the letters?
At that time I used a bright red color for the Russian characters and the keys were in gray.
I have since of course changed the color. Now I use a more darker red color to represent the Russian letters.
I myself don’t suffer from this problem, but I while ago I surfed around on the Internet and found a cool website that is all about colorblindness and remembered the e-mail and the adjustment I had to made to the Russian editor.
On that site is a tool which you can use to see how your website would look if you were a colorblind person. The URL is http://www.vischeck.com/vischeck/vischeckURL.php

I learned there that there are different forms of colorblindness.

Different form of color deficiency affects large number of people.
Colorblindness is in a large extent a gender problem, because it is affecting males much more often than females.
Here are some facts, I’ve learned!

You probably would have started with a woman instead of a man for the perfect design. I say this because in my experience, a woman is more adept to selling than a man. The multi tasking capabilities, note taking skills and willingness to ask for directions when they are lost, add up to some good reasons. Aside from this, just for fun, let's consider the design of the perfect salesperson. Here are some characteristics

Colorblindness is not a problem if the text on your web site is in blank on a white background.
But, if you mix text with color on a colored background, this can create a problem with your web site for many viewers.
It is more common to make mistakes if you mix the wrong colors on external images and banners that have text in one color and the background in another, than to mix the wrong color with raw text.
