The Board Really Messes With ColorBlind Folks

CantKeepMeHere

Yes - that's me and if you don't have the condition I can't explain it too you but I will try
I see color all colors
It is the shades that get me
Yellow looks yellow
Red looks red
But a dark yellow can look orange and a dark red can look brown
The PJ next to each post when you are looking at The Porch form are so hard to seperate for me I can't tell what is a Sticky | Unread posts | Popular especaill the Unread and Popular

anyone else have this condition? or problem?

hehe my friend is the same as you, we love to mess with him when we are playing snooker and telling him the red ball is brown etc etc

I have a mate who is colour blind.

One night we were at the pub, challenging these guys at a game of pool. He said to me 'go for the yellow one' So I did, he said 'I said yellow not purple' I'm like 'I hit the yellow one idiot' and at that same point, we both put two and two together and 'ah'd' in unison.

I'm all with you, man. It took me weeks to figure out why, when the forum logged me out, some of the threads showed up unread and the rest were the blue "read" color... then I realized it was the "popular" color, not the "unread" color. I still can't tell them apart.
