Cool personality testing site

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Beyond the Sidewalks : One Thread

I found an interesting site this morning, it's at Colorgenics

Here's a description from the website: By choosing various colors, in order of preference, from a color spectrum, it is possible to ascertain various characteristics of a person at a specific time. It has been found that people with similar traits have predilections for specific colors. And, according to one's moods at a particular time, one's outlook on life will change…These color preferences compound a profile which is amazingly accurate..

It only took me about a minute to take the test and the results are dead on. The profile generated is a page long, but here's the first paragraph:

At this time you are really feeling quite exhausted by all the conflict and quarrelling that is going on about you and you are looking for some sort of protection from this state of affairs. Ideally you are seeking a peaceful condition and a tranquil environment in which you can be afforded the chance to relax and recover.

Sound familiar? :>

It was only partially correct. I am a "black heart" but other than wanting to be left alone, I don't fit the rest of it. Black is just my favorite contrast and I don't like bright colors :>)

Mine was dead on also. Have taken it before and the same thing happened, and was different than the one I took just now.

Its important to use one's FEELINGS when taking the test, not one's BRAIN.

Mine was quite personal and profound, and actually has shaken me up enough to give what it says some serious time today.

Thank you, Sherri.

You're welcome, EM. :) My profile had the same sort of impact, I think I'm going to use it as a springboard for a journal entry. (it's due on the 19th and I still need to make 5 more entries)

BTW, I'm glad to see you back here. You were missed.

I took it earlier and again just now and I get a "this page can't be displayed" page for my answer. Do you think maybe I was found broken??? ;>(

Guess you're just too "colorful" for them Diane! :-)

Mine was pretty accurate also. I took this once before and I think it said pretty much the same thing. It's been awhile since I took it so I don't remember what I chose before. I think that's kind of neat.

Some how I keep thinking that this is a joke thread!!! No kidding.....no matter what order I click on the cubes I get a page not available or moved thingy. I give up.

Well, Diane, does it help that I see you as bright and colorful and generally colored 'helpful'?
