Help wanted

So for my Human-Computer Interaction class, I'm working on a project related to color-blindness. I'd like a few volunteers that I can show some pictures to, and ask for opinions - either whether two things look the same, or if a modified image looks hideously ugly even though the colors have better contrast. Also, if you have any examples of websites with poor color choices, links would be awesome.



Do these two look the same? The one on the left is a simple spectrum with hue values from zero to one; the one on the right is the same image with red and green channels averaged. It was the simplest model of color-blindness to implement; if the two images are too distinct, I may have to go to the actual perceptually-based models. :-P

Yup, I'm with Mac - pretty different, excepting the blue and yellow bands which correspond. Though I hasten to add that I'm not color-blind. Good luck with the project, it sounds interesting I must admit!
