Activity 2 : Creating Color Palettes using Images

From my own image:
Activity 3 : Color Blindness Simulation
There is a similarities between Red-Blind/Protanopia and Green-Blind/Deuteranopia, Blue-Blind/Tritanopia and Blue-Weak/Tritanomaly, and Red-Weak/Protanomaly and Green-Weak/Deuteranomaly. Web Designers can used these facts to combine the colors of similarities to fake any form of color vision deficiency.
