How specific are you with your colors?
I'm very specific, so I'm particularly precise in use of color-based adjectives.
I see a particularly precise colour-based adjective and I want it painted black. No colours anymore I want them to turn black.
:colbert:
I am fairly specific. Y'know, like, I know what eggshell is.
chartreuse or gtfo
Not very specific, at all. I usually just make up my own names for colours, because I am lazy/dumb. :}

:monster: I, apparently, have a 99 low color acuity for blues...
As a straight male I recognize primary and secondary colors. Anything further is nonsense.
I'm color deficient so I couldn't care less about the damn things.
I scored a 16. I don't know what that means. Woohoo!
For someone who is so specific, you failed to cite any examples!
(I got a three on lynxie's test)
I usually stick to crayola colors
I scored a 10 on that test. That's reassuring since I do a lot of car wiring. :p
I don't really get too detailed in color descriptions.
I got a 0 on the hue test! :D
I love colour names, especially obscure and euphonic ones, but when describing a colour I try to keep it on a level where I can make myself understood, rather than breaking out the most specific word I know for it.

I don't really get those best and highest scores, but hey at least I got it perfect. I'd like to thank my MacBook Pro for providing me with such a great and accurate screen despite it being a TN panel.
Salmon is not a colour. Your shirt is pink. :colbert:
Actually scratch that, pink is not a colour either. Girl is a colour and includes "colours" such as "purple" and "pink"
Your shirt is girl.
And you are tasteless, dear sir.
I got an 8 :D
