Um, yeah. They don't give me Photoshop (or any graphics program) at work :-)

I've looked in the monitor control panel, or whatever it's called in Windows. I've used Windows only for <1 year, so I'm quite ignorant (Macs for >15 years, so not totally computer illiterate though). I think I discussed this with Gordon in another thread, the outcome being that it was not adjustable with this configuration..

dunno about the imac settings. does the monitor control panel have a gamma adjuster? anyone with an imac out there that''s done this?


Yeah, I'm fine with this. Offhand, I believe there's a wizard in the colorsync control panel.

In the iMac, if you''re using System 9.xx (or Photoshop 6 in Clasic with OS X), you''ll find a way to adjust the montior in the Monitors Control Panel. If you''re using Photoshop, you can also use the Adobe Gamma control panel that program throws in the control panels to adjust your monitor. In OS X, go to Displays and click on the tab Color. There''s a button to click to calibrate on that page.

By the way, I have a 17" LCD iMac at 1024 x 768.

monitor one: 19" or 21" (not sure of size) 1280 x 1024 @ 85 Hz
(i also use the stretched out 1600 x 1024 at 85 Hz sometimes)
monitor two: 17" 1024 x 768 @ 75 Hz (poor quality monitor)

How do y'all manage a monitor with refresh rates under 75 Hz? Actually, even 75 seems too low... 85 is so nice... lower than that, and my eyes start twitching in a most unhealthy manner.

The gamma adjusting utility is in the Windows control panel folder. (Not sure but expect Adobe would put it in a similar folder on the Mac)

This utility builds a profile for your monitor that is used by the video driver so it adjusts the monitor for all applications not just Adobe. I would think that you could copy the utility on to a disk and load it onto another computer.

My primary resolution on my NEC MultiSync P750 is 1280x1024 32Bit 85Hz.

My eyes sometimes aren't as good as I'd like them to be, so after long hours of sitting in front of this computer I sometimes drop down to 1024x768 32Bit 100 Hz.
