Having recently entered digital photography,(From Film), I somtimes wonder about the above parameters, casting votes.
I have a 17" LCD Benq FP767-12, set at 1280x1074, if I show the same image on an LG 17" CRT @ 1074x 768 I see a difference. Or is it a mind over eye thing.

It was pleasing to see a 1.4mp camera take out a Blue Ribbon in the recent Moods Challenge.

While I'm here, recently had an image vote cast at 1, the voter didn't like the flash (light) effect. If a flash light HAD been used the shadows would have been different, makes you wonder. At least the voter was honest in his/her own way.

Just means you take the good with the bad. Cheers to all.

The calibration (colour, brightness etc) of the display can make a HUGE difference to the image you see also (even on two displays of the same model). I've noticed this viewing my own pics on different screens.

I second that... Calibration makes a Huge difference...and profiling a monitor makes a world of difference when going from screen to local printer.

I do almost all my work on a laptop with a very high quality LCD and settings. On one of the recent challenges I submitted a photo that looked great on the LCD. Later when I logged in with my desktop and viewed the submission on it's 19 inch CRT I was amazed at the "ghosts" that were very visible now. There is definately a difference, and based on the photo it may be better on one or the other. In this case the CRT showed problems that were not noticable on the LCD.

Thanks for the comments, Pollybean i came to the same,and believe calibration is the answer, PhantomEWO, you have really hit it on the head, and I now see why there is such a great spectrum in the vote casting,my image may look ok on my monitor, and when you cast your vote see the image in a different light, for better or worst.
