(I'm thinking of getting a MAC dedicated just to imaging.) On this little LCD monitor I've some tree detail in the foreground (not perfect but it is a low res scan from print.) That there is no 'foreground water' (just trees and farmland) in the image speaks to how poorly it must be displaying on your monitor Tim. This seems to be a common problem that I'm having. Photos look ok on my laptop, but are much darker on some other monitors. Does anyone have a suggestion for how to make an image uniformly display well on the greatest number of viewers monitors? I do have a gray scale .gif on my Nature Portfolio page for the adjustment of a monitors, but should I place on each page with each image? or is there something else that I can do to better the situation? (And I agree that it is incumbent on the site owner not the viewer to try to make it easiest for the viewer not the other way round.) Thanks for the comments Tim. Carpe Luminem, Michael E. Berube
