I really feel sorry for colorblind people, especially those who are forced to see the whole world in black and white! But still, they are the absolute minority in society.

It may make certain puzzle games hard to play, but you can still look at the console logos to the left of the charts... right?

1- color blindness is partial(green and red are the same...), it's not like we're TVs with no colors(just black and white) (wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daltonian)
    2- A chart is a visual representation of data, in which the data are represented by symbols such as bars in a bar chart or lines in a line chart. A chart can represent tabular numeric data, functions or some kinds of qualitative structures.
        in this cas we talk about the chart with lines, more specifically the one wich have the PS3 line ans XBOX360 one with red & green (I can't tell wich one is the red :D ), and unfortunatly, the PS3 & XBOX360 lines are often intersecting so it's practically impossible for us to distuguish between them.
    3- Yes, we're minority but we still exist, changing one line from green to black will not kill you :p

This.

Make the ps3 black :p

I vote for that.

Perhaps the green could be paler and the red darker...

Hehe I'm color-blind too but the red-green I can tell apart. I have a harder time with light green-yellow, blue-purple, dark red-brown, etc.

I don't want to be mean, but posting about something you obviously know nothing about is ignorant.  If that was meant as more of a joke than fine, but still not in very good taste, IMO.

I think I mentioned it before in a very old thread, but my cousin once asked me if the world used to be in black and white.

The sad thing is, she is a few months older than me... I think we were 17/18 and looking at some old photographs at our grandparents, and because the old photos were BnW she thought the world must have been like that.

More recently I reminded her of it (in front of her boyfriend ) and she still didn't really believe everyone else, she was saying "Well, trees weren't as green as that were they"

thats a lil callous..n i guess the whole point of the post was the inability to see green-red..

Well another thing that I thought would be a good idea (from quite a while ago I think I mentioned it in one of the ancient "site improvement" threads) is that when you highlight the line, it tells you a bit more information.

At the moment it just gives a more exact figure for the weeks data, but when PS3 and 360 lines go really close to each other it can be hard to tell which is actually on top, similrarly when the number of weeks is extended over 88 on the same graph it has to start plotting bi-weekly, or more... so it's sometimes hard to tell exactly which week we are on.

So perhaps when you scroll over a point on the graph it should say the exact figure, but also give the "week ending" date as well as the console it's for. (If the colour choosing is to be implemented anyway then it doesn't matter about putting the console, but the number and date would be written in the same colour as the line so it's easy to tell)

Also I am not sure if it has been fixed yet, but a while ago there were some inconsistancies about when the tracking week ends, like the weekly charts would give the date for Sunday or Monday, the drop down boxes would give the Friday and Saturday and the dates on the actual chartz would be different too.
