Graham,
I've got my Huey going at work (just got it set up). With the
corrected settings for the LCD monitor, the contrast looks good. I'd
say it's perfect. With the monitor uncorrected, it still looks very
good. It's hard to know how people will really see your stuff on the
web. Most monitors are out of whack.
Hope that helps,
Joel W.
