Re: PESO - A few grains of pepper

Re: PESO - A few grains of pepper

Jostein, It doesn't bother me that the background peppercorns are much less sharp than the foreground one. What bothers me about the focus is the abrupt transition in the surface the peppercorns are resting on, from textured to softly smooth. It's as though a guy with sandpaper said "Ah, screw

Re: OT: Monitor Specs

I think I already have the cables that I need, so hopefully I am OK. An irony about my current setup is that both monitors are using adapters. The one with the VGA port is connected to the card's sole DVI port with an adapter, and the one with a DVI port is connected to the HDMI port on the
