that is similar to what i have written, except your contrast ramp is limited to slope 2, and the ramp begins at 0, rather than centering in the visible range. this means an increase in contrast only affects the dark colors, while all light colors will get clamped to white? i bet if you set contrast to 0, you get solid black, when you should get solid middle gray? allan -- "so don't tell us it can't be done, putting down what you don't know. money isn't our god, integrity will free our souls" - Max Cavalera
