I like the overall design and the palette generally. However,
looking hard at it just now I'm thinking that the middle values for
Popcorn, Atomic and Cherry are a little too bright relative to the
rest.
Thanks! Since Quentin expressed going for a slightly higher-chroma
look, I compromised and increased the saturation of Squid, Slate,
Blueprint and Herb, and decreased the saturation of Popcorn, Atomic
and Cherry. The newest is up on the wiki.
Umm... no. I don't think they're shipped properly calibrated.
Certainly that seems to be the consensus of the pros, judging from
their comments.
Good to know.
If you go to System Preferences -> Displays -> Colours you can find
the profile you're using and choose to do a calibration. You might
find that the result interesting. Especially if you've got a glossy
screen. That'll really mess things up.
I've got a matte screen, and the colors appear to be correct,
however, I don't do any print work, nor do I have a printer or
calibration software/hardware, so I don't know how accurate they
truly are. I did try changing my calibration options to some of the
others in the list, however, and they all shift too blue. Any other
suggestions for what I could do?
Viewing an indexed colour GIF on a truecolour display isn't going
to yield any useful information.
Connect your MacBook to a CRT monitor or TV and switch down to
lower colour resolutions.
Sorry -- I changed my color depth to thousands (highcolor) as well
when I did this, and did notice dithering, but the dithering was
everywhere (including in the whites), so I'm not sure what to make of
that.
Any other ideas? Anyone with a truly calibrated monitor was to check
these out and provide feedback?
Thanks!
J.
