[Foundation-l] Re: Colourblindness

[Anthere]

The links are not blue and red.

The non visited links are blue.
The visited links are purple blue.

The stubs are purple red.
The empty are red.

Even for non colour blind, they are hard to distinguish.
I often confuse non visited with visited.
And 90% of the time confuse the stubs and the empty.

I am not colour blind, but errr, do not have a very good vision :-)
