Updates
While there is no set schedule I try to update the galleries each month.
Viewing Guide
For best viewing results your monitor should be operated in subdued light.
Bright direct light should not reach the screen. Dark areas of the screen
should appear dark to the eye. If the screen does not look right to you
then you should think about using a monitor calibration tool. The most basic
calibration tool, other than manually seeting the monitor, is Adobe Gamma.
This tool leaves much to be desired, but the advantage is that it comes free
with Photoshop.
The primary problem is that your basic eyeball calibration is highly influenced
by ambient lighting. Hardware based monitor calibrators provide far more accurate
and repeatable results, but may be more than what you need if you are simply viewing
websites like this one.
For a quick "eyeball calibration" set your monitor to display the highest
color quality (32-bit),
then adjust the brightness and contrast so you can distinguish the difference
between each grayscale block in the test strip below.
