Thanks, Richard - I'll try to figure that one out. It may be that because
they are dark to start with, the routine used to resize them for the site
darkens them too much.

And thanks for the pre-purchase of the book - should there ever be one.

BTW - a note for you and any other Boston-area LUGGERS - Inferno is
remaindered at the Harvard Book Store - not the Coop - on Mass Ave for $63 -
and they have number of other interesting remaindered photo books.
