Default Accessibility color wheel - 02-02-2007 , 06:24 PM






Hi all,

this is to introduce you the accessibility color wheel, a tool I
realized which could be useful when choosing the colors for an accessible
website.

The address is http://gmazzocato.altervista.org/colorwheel/wheel.php
It analyzes a pair of colors and shows how people affected by
various kind of color blindnesses see it. In other words it simulates
daltonism and tells you if a color pair is suitable for instance as a
text/background pair in a accessible web site.

I tried to make it user friendly. If you have any question or proposals to
improve it, don't hesitate to contact me here or by email at
gmazzocato (AT) libero (DOT) it

Bye,
Giacomo

Bye,
Giacomo

Thanks, but a page whose content appears and disappears as you move the
mouse around is not what I'd expect from someone concerned with
accessibility.
