Post #256,101 by Andrew Grygus 5/20/06 3:30:03 PM Reply	Fish tonight, Yum! Got me a couple Vermillion Rockfish. At $3.99/# they were top dollar (well, where I shop anyway) but looked too good to pass up, and being in the Scorpionfish family they're sure to be delicious. [image\|http://www.clovegarden.com/ingred/img/sf_vermillion5d.jpg\|\|\|\|] Now, a question. How does that picture look to you folks? On my screen it's a little too dark, but on Rose's screen it's just a touch washed out. I'm interested to see how it looks to others and whether you use a CRT or flat screen.

Post #256,105 by Another Scott 5/20/06 4:55:14 PM Reply	Ok, I guess - a little scary. I don't have anything to compare it to. Can you sneak a standard item into the pictures (like a Red Delicious and a Granny Smith apple)? I think it's always going to be an issue (at least until monitors come pre-calibrated). Samsung SyncMaster 997DF (19" CRT), Brightness = 5, Contrast = 100, White = 9300K, 1600x1200x32bitsx72Hz, NVIDIA GeForce 6600, Win2k. HTH. Cheers, Scott.

Post #256,121 by Andrew Grygus 5/20/06 6:42:29 PM Reply	Yeah, the color's better with the flash . . . . . but I couldn't get a useful angle without the eyes reflecting back. Just figure it's a zombie fish. [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com\|AAx]
Post #256,132 by Andrew Grygus 5/20/06 8:27:07 PM Reply	OK, screwing around with lighting . . . . . I got a good picture without glowing eyes and still got good color, maybe better. [image\|http://www.clovegarden.com/ingred/img/sf_vermillion2d.jpg\|\|\|\|] [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com\|AAx]

Post #256,234 by Andrew Grygus 5/22/06 12:09:31 PM Reply	Hey! He was a nice fish (tasty too) and gave his life . . . . . for my sustinance and enjoyment. It is not polite to describe him as "gross". [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com\|AAx]

Post #256,233 by tonytib 5/22/06 11:58:10 AM Reply	Got to cook fish with its head on When I'm buying whole fish, I always specify "leave the head on". I just tried spicy pig's ears for the first time yesterday. Not bad, but they don't make my favorite list. --Tony
