I'm getting a few comments that lead me to believe that my image may not be showing up on eveyone's computer the same. Someone said my image had a rainbow effect. This is strange to me because it is (to the best of my knowlege) a greyscale image. I've looked at it on a MAc at home and a PC at work and it looks the same. Now if I turn my monitors colors down to like 16 bit and 256 I see some strange artifacts, but no color. Anyone got any ideas?

this is pitsaman's answer to all questions. LOL
there are alot of places on the web that talk about calibrating monitors...I use Mac and got a program that is shareware called SuperCal that does an excellent job. I set my monito to basically mimic a PC (the brightness, etc.). This program has great info and walks you through it.

What you see on the screen depends on your "display settings" and the hardware, mainly the graphic card and the monitor itself. If the computer is less than 5 years old and have a reasonably good quality display/graphic card set to 16bit colours, there should not be a problem. The monitor must be able to handle the high resolution too. Another problem could be the user preferences for turning down the brightness/contrast on the monitor.
