David Healy | | I have found a way to make style sheets that can be configured for colorblindness or are using 256 colors by using JavaScript. Would anyone like to know how to do this. Private Reply to David Healy |

Wolf Halton | | That is probably a good thing.
As a colourblind person, I can tell you that (at least for me - YMMV) good contrast is the most important thing. The contrast dimention to concentrate on is dark:light you can have light blue on dark blue, but don't use red on black. There is no contrast at all in the latter (to me). To me, red is a bit like a light black.
On those spectrum maps I only see 3 positively identifiable "colours." White, Black and everything inbetween.Private Reply to Wolf Halton |

Kurt Schweitzer | | You might want to run your website through the tool at http://www.vischeck.com/vischeck/vischeckURL.php. It will present you with a simulation of how your pages look through color blind eyes. Very enlightening!
(This was NOT the reason the Sound and Loving Care website only has B&W photos on it, but at least that's one issue I don't have to worry about with that site!)
