lol, yeah i don't really like the east coast as much as the west. DC is such a dead city, all suits and no life there. try philadelphia, it's so much better.

speaking of LCD calibration, what settings should I be using on here? i currently am using gama mode 3 with brightness 100, contrast 80 and red/green/blue each at 50.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

naptha In reply to siron [2006-11-19 20:59:26 +0000 UTC]

Β Β Β Β I use gamma 2, 100 contrast, and 50 brightness at 9300 Kelvins with a sharpness setting of 6/10.
Β Β Β Β Each screen is different though. The best way to calibrate for colour is to get a colour calibrator, which I'm just too bloody poor for. But the setting I use is the closest I can get to having the screen and the printers outputting the same colours.

siron In reply to naptha [2006-11-20 04:58:21 +0000 UTC]

yeah, my monitor is a lot different cause 50 brightness is really dim lol.

naptha In reply to siron [2006-11-20 18:02:48 +0000 UTC]

But is that 50 brightness at 9300 Kelvins?

siron In reply to naptha [2006-11-20 22:49:02 +0000 UTC]

i dont know, mine doesn't have a kelvin scale, it just uses different color modes: warm, cool, normal, custom

Thank you very much for your comments and insight into some of my pieces. I'm glad that I cause an emotive response from you, and that you are interested in my different approaces on certain subject matter - like death and sex.

Thanks!

Β Β Β Hey, no worries. Good art deserves good commentary, and I'm really against bad comments. Nothing bugs me more than putting hours of work into a peice to recieve only a "nice!" or "awesome!" as a response.
Β Β Β I'm actually not a new deviantART member, I'm just switching account names. But thanks anyway, it's good to see that even after three years there is still a strong welcoming spirit here on deviantART. And hey, thanks for adding me to your deviantWATCH, truely an unexpected but welcome event.

Duly noted Wolf. I'll poke you for details in person, thanks for the heads up. I hope you're moving your old pieces to this username, otherwise it'll be harder to compare and contrast between your new and old work.

But then perhaps that is all in your plan.
