My friend is a designer and I think I think it would be great for <a href="http://www.yellowpages360solution.ca/en/advertising-solutions/web-site-creation.htm" rel="nofollow">website designers here in Toronto</a> to take these things into account as well when they're designing their webpages. I will have to show her this article.

There's a full summary and breakdown available online, it is definitely worth a look.. and their 20% stat doesn't even take into account the 8% of males (it's more like 1 in 12 than 1 in 6, but that's still a huge number) who are colourblind, or the 14% of adults who have the reading ability of a young child.Ian Hamiltonhttp://www.ian-hamilton.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1604620482023286355.post-41216760855055224252013-08-28T12:55:45.941-04:002013-08-28T12:55:45.941-04:00Well done!
