I'm color blind too, it was brought to my attention a few weeks ago. I was arguing that a shirt was grey, but in fact it was blue. I'm still in denial though, the damn shirt still look grey! This message was posted from a K700i

So do I and I'm not colourblind!

I wouldn't describe it as brown at all, mine's definately a sort of dark grey and speckly silver.

I assume you mean me @eastcoaststar...

I'm from Massachusetts, I wonder how many things I've colored wrong. I went to school for art and not one person ever told me I was using the wrong color or anything. They probably thought I was trying to be abstract

Yeah, I found out I was slightly (22%) colourblind when I left australia and had to have a medical exam. I don't know how they manage to measure colourblind-ness in percentages, but meh. The average person is around 2-5% colourblind apparently, which just means occasional slips, like when some car is really dark blue and you think its black etc.

I only have trouble with red sometimes, and get similar clours confused quite regulariliy (like that blue/black incident). However, if someone tells me something is blue, I'll start to see it better.

Before I knew I was slightly colourblind, I was talking to a friend about it (he was 78% or sumthing) and he held up this book that had black and greay stripes to illustrate his example, he goes "If no-one told me this book was green, I'd see it as grey. Until they tell me that its actually green, I assume its grey!". I had to point out that it actually WAS grey . Huge paradigm shift for him there. His favorite notebook was a completely different colour than he thought!

Oh and have you ever noticed how a certain shade of red jumps out of the page? And when you shake the paper/book or whatever it jumps around a bit? Yeah, thats me .
