This one was new and on the technical template, and I missed changing the title last night. Long day! > Second, don't override the default colors for an article you want people to > read. Or default text sizes, for that matter. The problem I have noticed is that even across IE implementations, the text size varies widely - when I do the pages on Dreamweaver, the text is quite small, but on every browser I test it with, it looks huge. I will check on the overriding default issue. > Getting back to photo stuff... > >> (—) Neopan 1600 - Neopan is a great film for miserable light.

I shouldn't say that it is a total loss - you can extract shadow detail, but the overall effect is very Rembrandt - suitable for some scenes and not others. Outdoors, the film flattens out a lot. I like Neopan a lot better than the alternatives, but it is not an all-round film, certainly not one I would commit to 36 frames of on a trip.
