Alan Ingham:

Lovely teeth!! What do you mean by lovely teeth? I had expected something along the lines of 'why dear Alan, I do trust that this image has been entered for POTY, and if not, why not. The conversion to B+W has not only been done with flair and imagination but with a skill that defies the boundaries of this forum - and that's even before we mention subsequent editing'. Now then, isn't that what you really meant to say? Lovely teeth my foot (PC rules forbid first choice of word).

Oh all right then. I was going to say was he in a spaghetti western?

We'd better watch out or the forum police will be after us for excessive use of banter!

People in the background went abit weird.

Hope this works

Steve, she looks like what ever it was it was bitter!

Love the Three Crosses craftysnapper, Have you added green to the background or is my monitor slightly off?

So what about Fire in B&W does it work?

Thank you

I'm pretty sure your monitor is slightly of as the images profile is in grey Gamma 2.2 and so can only display correctly unless your monitor calibration is off.

If you ever want to check if your monitor is displaying a colour cast or it is the image that has the cast simply load the B&W image into PS choose the info pallete and where ever you put the eye dropper tool all the RGB values should be equal for a perfectly nuetral b&w without a cast, if it is it is your monitor that is out.

Now I've proberly got you checking your monitor calibration.

LOL not this time, I am on a loaner as I am in the process of changing over to a new laptop with a second 21" monitor ( sold my old one ) as soon as I get it I will calibrate it to my printer as it helps.
