Heya

I was wondering how many people actually calibrate their monitors so that the work they view looks the way it's meant to. It's a pity when an artist spends ages making sure values are correct and brightness/contrast and saturation look right and people don't calibrate their monitors.

It's a big worry for me because i work on a laptop so i was wondering if in general my gallery appears to have the right contrast/brightness values and whether you know of a good a calibration method, the best way i could find was this easy to use chart [link]

... A superb gallery I must say... So many great artists here in Cape Town, yet all so undercover... Keep up the great work, and don't let Eishkom's powercut's get the better of you.

... The door of potential stands before me; ajar
... I reach for it, but what is so close is yet so far
... I shall push forward; up and out of the dark
... towards the door; and ask for art
