As Seen By The Colour Blind

Friday, July 25th, 2008

I’m colour blind myself (slightly), so sometimes feel the frustration when designs or sites lack the contrast to be visible easily, this is also why most of my sites make little use of colour, going mainly for grays with contrast.

Anyway this is just a post to point you towards a nice article on the colourlovers.com blog, which nicely demonstrates how others might see some popular sites as well as explaining a bit more on colour blind - well worth a read!

If you dont trust your unhashed password to the app, try a javascript implementation of md5

Also a good demonstration that as an application developer you should be using a salt in addition to the password when hashing.
