About the only thing folks should take
away from this is to pick their ballot colors wisely. I have seen some pretty crazy ballots
out there in the field, and have never understood why people won’t just
stick with black text on white background, the default. Mauve on teal is not attractive, folks. As to Tari’s
request, color cues are not for colorblind people. Them are the
breaks. What we need to do however
is implement Greg’s longstanding request to put the number voted and
number to vote for on each race on the summary screen. Ken -----Original Message----- I'm going to be pedantic
here. What Greg refers to as colour blindness is exceedingly rare, and is
(logically) referred to as total colour blindness. Colour blind people do in
fact see colours. The condition refers to an inability to distinguish between
two colours. Most commonly, the two colours are red and green, and the
condition occurs in varying degrees. A rarer condition is the inability to
distinguish blue and purple, or yellow. That's why the tests for
colour blindness usually consist of looking at a field of red spots and seeing
if you can see the number (composed of green spots) within the field. or
blue/purple/yellow. As far as I know, there's
no condition where people are unable to distinguish between pink/black. or pink/white
for that matter. Josh.
