[QUOTE="doveman, post: 845207, member: 67412"] Ah OK, I'll give it a go sometime then :) Yeah, you're right, had the monitor on a dodgy preset which I used to dim the screen a bit. Standard or RGB presets look more grey, although there's a faint violet tint there. I need to calibrate it properly sometime :) Been looking at colorimeter's but the only ones I can afford are either rubbish or don't work with the free software (ColorHCFR) and the paid-for software costs as much as the meters! Couldn't you have just told them to turn their monitors down :giggle: By the way, I just noticed there doesn't appear to be a preview button unless I click on More Options (and then I can't see the thread). Is this intentional as it seems rather strange to hide the Preview function like this. I predict an increase in edits :D Also, when in the More Options screen and previewing, it doesn't seem to show the quoted text in a different colour, making it hard to know if you've got the quote tags right until after posting.
