[QUOTE="D3v1L80Y, post: 632217, member: 2960"] Not quite. What you are describing is a clear case of an improperly or uncalibrated monitor. These links might help explain it better for you: [url=http://www.epaperpress.com/monitorcal/]Monitor Calibration[/url] [url=http://www.imaging-resource.com/ARTS/MONCAL/CALIBRATE.HTM]Monitor Calibration: Is Your Monitor Calibrated?[/url] [url=http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/viewing.htm]Monitor Calibration[/url] [url=http://www.normankoren.com/makingfineprints1A.html]Monitor calibration and gamma[/url] Now, even a properly calibrated screen will distort color saturation and brightness if it is glossy. Nothing will really overcome that, it is just the nature of that display type. However, even with a glossy display, proper calibration will allow you to get a more accurate on-screen display of color than you currently have. [/QUOTE]
