Thank you Andy, I am being a bit of a skinflint I don't really want to have to buy a colorimeter. I have just bought a new monitor and I am trying to keep costs down by doing the calibration by eye. If the greys in this site are true The question I am asking is those who have such an item, how do you view this site, example the thin bar where it says today, to me I would set my monitor to see it as a rough 18% grey. Am I close. I have just done the calibration from the link Don gave me and to get things looking right on that page, everything else is now way out. It would be great if nvidia used eye droppers like in photoshop to pick out the black white and greys in a displayed photo to automatically set the contrast, brightness and gamma.
