Doesn't matter what you see, others will never see it the same way. Our
potter fusses for hours over his photos, so that they will match his pots
exactly (albeit he needs a course in photography and lighting), and then
complains when he sees it on another monitor.<br>

My monitor has a Kelvin setting on it , and I chose to use the bluish
setting, perhaps someone else would have chosen the reddish setting. You
can also control the monitor tints separately, make *everything* a shade
of green or something. Do not fret over exact color matches, they are
even more meaningless than font selections.<br>
