[quote user="elpulgas" post="43134"]Yep, that's another problem when designing something. For example, I couldn't see most images of the frozen phoenix theme because my screen was too bright lol.

But that's not a thing you can control. Every person has different brightness/contrast configurations. Nvidia and ATi have different default settings and every manufacturer will configure their products differently. And you can change the display settings on the monitor, on your graphics card driver, etc so there aree many possibilities. One can only hope they see it right.[/quote]
Yes I totally agree on that... this is the main issue I have to deal with when designing... when I style with my laptop I have to change all colors when I see the results on my desktop... :lol:


[quote user="Lopalong" post="43125"]The problem is that there are no benchmarks to set colours for individual screens when using the web, not even such a thing as "Web-safe colours" for a guide, and come to think of it, I have no idea of how one could ever be created.[/quote]
That is not true... there are some tools both hardware and software that are used by professional designers which help to set the correct contrast and luminance.

For example have a look here:
