I’ve just been reading this presentation paper on colourblindness while trying to be a back seat designer as the actual designer in the office chooses colours for buttons.
An amusing statistic from the paper is that 8% of caucasians have difficulty distinguishing between red and green. From the perspective of a web designer, it’s more worthwhile designing for their needs than the entire macintosh user base (even after accounting for the 8% of red/green colourblind mac users).
