Can you spot a pixel out of place?

Think you know your #0000FF from your #1000ff? Your Helvetica from your Verdana? Your 9:16 from your 4:3? If so (or indeed, if the above makes much sense to you), then this we've found the web design quiz for you.

Semblance is a quiz designed to test your ability to notice "pixel perfect changes in frontend web design". And even for more experienced web designers, this is a pretty fiendish challenge. (Looking for web design inspiration? Check out the best website designs around.)

The multiple-choice questions compare fonts, colours, photo editing techniques and more – and even test your ability to compare the amount of pixels in a border. Which is harder than it sounds – this writer scored a measly 40% overall. But hey, I'm a writer, not a designer.
