Looks like they should be EEEEEE and EFEFEF respectively, although there are overlapping styles involved, and I'm in no mood to suss out the CSS hierarchy.  And I don't even have any software on this computer that can give me the HTML code for a colour, so I can't just screenshot it.

And testing peoples colour perception wouldn't work; you'd end up testing their monitors, and how well set up they are.  I'm on an elderly CRT at the moment, which hopefully explains why I can't see any of the tests.

It's possible that if the posts do alternate between EEEEEE and EDEDED (rather than EFEFEF) that that would be the case... depends on the monitor, it's settings and Mole's eyesight.

I did ponder that whilst posting.  The 'it' in that case is referring to the monitor, which is a noun, and as that noun is possessive, it should have an apostrophe.  If grammar says otherwise, it should make its mind up.

Possessive "its" doesn't have an apostrophe. "It's" is always "it is". Except when it's "it has". (I hate apostrophes.)



I checked in PSPX and the colours are definitely EEEEEE and EFEFEF, on the main page, and EDEDED on the reply page.

So, on the main page you cannot see the top top one nor bottom bottom one, no matter what you're halucinations might tell you. Tongue

On the reply page, you will either be able to see the bottom of each pair, or all four, but not just three of them.



Monitor issues could be avoided by having everyone look at the same monitor, (and in a controlled environment with a constant light source and temperature)

Feh.  If the 'it' refers to a noun, then I can see no earthly reason why the 'it' in question shouldn't be given a apostrophe too.  Unless perhaps it's to differentiate the contraction of "it is" from the possessive "its".  Who made those rules up, and why wasn't there a governing body to make sure they made sense?  Sad


I thought you meant a test conducted via the internet.  Although your plan still isn't quite perfect, as the monitor would get burn in if left long enough.

surely if they are the same colour no matter what monitor you run it on everyone will see the same thing, a defined colour on a background that is the defined colour of the text will still be outputted as the same thing on the monitor, and i can see 3 of them!

given the first one is extremely feint, they still arent the same colour, or there is some kind of mild outline going on

Sadly not; try working with computer graphics for an extended period of time and you'll soon be cursing the lot of them.  (Monitors, that is.)

I think these colors work very well.  Well... for me they do :sheep:
For each post I can only see one of the two colors

I can see them both on both, with the bottom one being quite obvious both times.

Same here.  Why'd you choose those colours?
