Tony Ah, but that is something entirely different to "colour" not existing without a perceiver. The light has the potential to display colour but colour itself has to exist before its potential can be realized. Just as music can exist without sound, so can colour exist independent of a raye of light. I may not know colour theory as well as the illuminati (1776) on this list but I know enough to be dangerous. FWIW, I think Steve's done an excellent job of explaining color management to the uninitiated but I like to think I am a little further ahead than some of the novices that it's aimed at. I wasn't trying to nitpick but I had my tongue firmly in my cheek...unlike now. ;-^) Shangara Singh. __________________________________________________ :: Photoshop CS Adobe Certified Expert (ACE) :: Photoshop CS Essential Tips && ACE Exam Aids && Glossary :: http://www.photoshopace.com && http://www.examaids.com =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
