My monitor isn't callibrated and I have no idea how they look on other people's monitors. It's one of the great frustrations of the digital photography age.

Oh, let's not get into the geek points scoring thing here. Because insofar as geeks go, i'm really far geekier than I might at first appear. I'm a stealth geek, you see. I look normal, act normal, sound normal, but underneath… oh dear me. You don't want to know.
