<div>Primary colours can be mixed to make other colours. Red, yellow, and b=
lue are the three traditional primary colours. The primary colours for tele=
vision screens and computer monitors are red, green and blue. Printers and =
paints use magenta, yellow, and cyan as their primary colours; they may als=
o use black. Sometimes this set of colours is simply called red, yellow, an=
d blue.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>co=

><div></div><div></div><div>The word color has its roots (unsurprisingly) i=
n the Latin word color. It entered Middle English through the Anglo-Norman =
colur, which was a version of the Old French colour. The current difference=
 in spelling between the American and British variants is credited to (or o=
ccasionally blamed on) Noah Webster, the American lexicographer. Seeking to=
 establish American independence and identity in language, Webster implemen=
ted a number of spelling reforms in A Compendious Dictionary of the English=
 Language, which he published in 1806.</div><div></div><div></div><div>The =
Colour Contrast Check Tool allows to specify a foreground and a background =
colour and determine if they provide enough of a contrast "when viewed by s=
omeone having color deficits or when viewed on a black and white screen"[W3=
C].</div><div></div><div></div><div>The tool will indicate that the colours=
 pass the test if both the colour difference and the brightness difference =
exceedtheir threshold. It will indicate that it sort of passes if only one =
of the two values exceed their threshold. And finally, it'll failto pass if=
 neither value exceeds its threshold.</div><div></div><div></div><div>The t=
ool will also indicate if the colours pass the newer WCAG 2.0 contrast rati=
o formula. The WCAG 2.0 formula differentiates between text smaller than 18=
pt text larger than 18pt (or text that is bold and larger than 14pt). For A=
A compliance, text should have a ratio of at least 4.5:1 (larger text, at l=
east 3:1). For AAA compliance, text should have a ratio of at least 7:1 (la=
rger text, at least 4.5:1).</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></di=

ency, or CVD) affects approximately 1 in 12 men (8%) and 1 in 200 women. In=
 the UK there are approximately 3 million colour blind people (about 4.5% o=
f the entire population), most of whom are male. Worldwide, there are estim=
ated to be about 300 million people with colour blindness, almost the same =
number of people as the entire population of the USA!</div><div></div><div>=
</div><div>There are different causes of colour blindness. For most colour =
blind people their condition is genetic, usually inherited from their mothe=
r, although some people become colour blind as a result of other diseases s=
uch as diabetes and multiple sclerosis or it can be acquired due to ageing =
or from taking drugs and medications.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Probl=
ems can arise across the entire colour spectrum potentially affecting perce=
ption of all reds, greens, oranges, browns, purples, pinks and greys. Even =
black can be confused as dark red, dark green or dark blue/purple.</div><di=

iv></div><div></div><div>While scientists, photographers, businessmen and e=
xperimenters laboured, the public became impatient. Photographers, eager to=
 give their customers what they wanted, soon took the matter, literally, in=
to their own hands and began to add colour to their monochrome images. As t=
he writer of A Guide to Painting Photographic Portraits noted in 1851:</div=
><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>Several different process=
es and materials were used for hand-colouring, which proved to be a cheaper=
, simpler alternative to early colour processes. It provided studio employm=
ent for miniature painters who had initially felt threatened by the emergen=
ce of photography.</div><div></div><div></div><div>In skilled hands, effect=
s of great subtlety and beauty could be achieved. However, even at its very=
 best, hand-colouring remained an unsatisfactory means of recording colour;=
 it could not reproduce the colours of nature exactly.</div><div></div><div=
></div><div>The scientific investigation of colour began in the 17th centur=
y. In 1666, Sir Isaac Newton split sunlight with a prism to show that it wa=
s actually a combination of the seven colours of the spectrum.</div><div></=
div><div></div><div>While this work was scientifically important, it was of=
 limited practical value at first. Exposure times were long, and photograph=
ic materials sensitive to the whole range of the colour spectrum were not y=
et available.</div><div></div><div></div><div>The American photographer and=
 inventor Frederic Ives devised a system based on three colour-separation n=
egatives taken through coloured filters. From these negatives, positive tra=
nsparencies were made which were placed in a special viewer, called a Kroms=
kop. Mirrors in the Kromskop superimposed the images on the three transpare=
ncies and a second set of filters restored the colours.</div><div></div><di=
v></div><div>The first process to use this method was devised by Dr John Jo=
ly of Dublin in 1894. Joly covered a glass plate with very fine red, green =
and blue lines (less than 0.1mm wide) in order to create a three-coloured f=
ilter screen.</div><div></div><div></div><div>When taking a photograph, thi=
s screen was placed in the camera in front of the plate. After exposure and=
 reversal processing, the black-and-white positive image was carefully plac=
ed in register with another filter screen. The result was a colour transpar=
ency which could be viewed by transmitted light (light that passes through =
an object).</div><div></div><div></div><div>Next, charcoal powder was sprea=
d over the plate to fill any gaps between the coloured starch grains. A rol=
ler, using a pressure of five tons per square centimetre, was used to flatt=
en out and spread the grains. The plate was then varnished to make it water=
proof.</div><div></div><div></div><div>The final plate was a three-coloured=
 filter screen: there were around four million transparent starch grains on=
 every square inch of it, each grain effectively acting as a coloured filte=
r. The final stage was to coat the plate with a panchromatic emulsion.</div=
><div></div><div></div><div>Following exposure, autochrome plates were reve=
rsal-processed to produce a positive image. When viewed by transmitted ligh=
t passing through the plate, the millions of tiny red, green and blue-viole=
t grains combined to give a full-colour photograph, accurately reproducing =
the colours of the original subject.</div><div></div><div></div><div>The co=
mmercial success of the process prompted the appearance of many other colou=
r processes based on the concept of screens made up of microscopic colour f=
ilters. These screens used either a random grain pattern or, more commonly,=
 different geometric patterns of lines and squares.</div><div></div><div></=
div><div>The original theory for subtractive colour reproduction can be tra=
ced back to the French physicist and inventor Louis Ducos du Hauron, who ex=
plained the method in his book Les couleurs en photographie, solution du pr=
obl=C3=A8me (1869). Du Hauron proposed that colour separation negatives sho=
uld be used to produce three positive images, which would then be dyed the =
complementary colours of cyan (bluegreen), magenta (blue-red) and yellow.</=
div><div></div><div></div><div>With subtractive colour, white, for example,=
 is represented by clear glass or white paper rather than by light passing =
through three filters. This means that subtractive processes are much less =
wasteful of light.</div><div></div><div></div><div>To exploit the Vivex pro=
cess, a company called Colour Photographs (British & Foreign) Ltd. was form=
ed with a factory in Willesden, north London. This was the first laboratory=
 to offer a colour print making service to professional photographers.</div=
><div></div><div></div><div>The basic idea of the tripack system was to con=
struct a multi-layer unit, where each plate was coated with an emulsion sen=
sitive to one of the primary colours. Light would pass through the first pl=
ate in order to reach the second emulsion layer and, in turn, pass through =
that plate to register on the third emulsion.</div><div></div><div></div><d=
iv>However, despite extravagant claims, the results were disappointing. The=
 negatives from the second and third emulsion layers were so blurry that th=
e company was reduced to hand-colour black-and-white prints made from the s=
harpest (front) element of the tripack. Unsurprisingly, Colour Snapshots Lt=
d went bankrupt in December 1929.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Kodachrom=
e was the invention of Leopold Mannes and Leopold Godowsky. Both earned the=
ir living as professional musicians (Mannes played the piano and Godowsky t=
he violin) while spending their spare time experimenting with colour photog=
raphy. Despite their best efforts, there came a point when they were unable=
 to progress without outside support.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Like =
Fischer, Mannes and Godowsky had great difficulty in preventing the coloure=
d dyes spreading between the emulsion layers. They overcame this by putting=
 the colour couplers in the developer rather than the emulsion.</div><div><=
