Accessibility Revisited

I want my websites to be at least WCAG1 Priority 2 (Level AA) compliant to accessibility standards but getting them checked and passed by a quality assurance accessibility checker (I use Truwex Online 2.0) is driving me nuts. Especially regarding colour brightness, difference and luminosity of backgrounds and text.

I came across a great little tool today that should save a lot of time and heartache in the future and thought I would share it here for anyone interested. Its a Colour Contrast Analyser and while you probably wont be able to have your design in the colours you prefer, if you want it accessible, at least you can check what will pass validation before you change them a hundred times until you get it right. Enjoy!
