I thought about that too. I'm using a professional, calibrated (using X-Rite gear, coincidentally) monitor that I use for photo processing. Cheap monitors could very well have inversions with neighboring hues.

I'm using my MacBook Pro's screen with its default color profile. Very low ambient light. I'm in bed.

16 the first time, 4 the next. It helped me to block out the other rows and only look at one at a time. Both tests I was off in the teal area.

I worked for decades in photolabs, and i sure don't want to try this test and risk failing it;
the only thing i will say about it is that it has happened often that, walking on the street, i often see people smile at me in a benign way or even turn their back on me and bend in two for no apparent reason.

aside from photolab tech., my hobby was photography (now flexing the muscles on my M80's);
you can have a look here:http://gellidius.deviantart.com/gallery/
Just click on the thumbnails and also on the images thereafter.

Sorry, kiddies. Color perception doesn't really work like that.

Read: Ogden Rood, Rudolph Arnheim, or Josef Albers.

They are the Gods of Color Theory.

Evaluating your perecetpion from an internet test is like determining your sexuality from a Cosmo survey. It's a parlor game.

The Pope has spoken.

Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.
