>anyone want to take a stab at this? Hi David and Glenda: no time to take a stab at this, but can reference a very good source for color issues, if not known already.... http://www.lighthouse.org/ http://www.lighthouse.org/color_contrast.htm Mark > >Organization: Soaring Eagle Communications >In my capacity as Web Accessibility Auditor, a client has asked me to >prepare a 10-page report proposing a web design colour scheme readable >by people who are colour blind. The report is to include: >7 a section describing the 5 or 6 colour schemes for several home pages, >within a page layout to be provided by the client. "Colour scheme" >includes the colours of the banner, navigation buttons, left sidebar >background, text and links. >7 a section explaining how and why the standard was chosen. This >rationale must be based on research, and derived from a method or an >authoritative, credible source. The suitability of the colour schemes >for people who are colour blind must be based on more than subjective >opinion. > >I have come up with five colour schemes and welcome your comments. They >can be found at http://www.eaglecom.bc.ca/qp_project/colours.htm . Any >other info is also welcomed. > >Thanks kindly, >Glenda > >-- >********* >Glenda Watson Hyatt >Communications Consultant >Soaring Eagle Communications >"Creating freedom and power through accessible communications" >E Mail: Glenda@eaglecom.bc.ca >Website: http://www.eaglecom.bc.ca > >*********
