I'd just like to encourage everyone to calibrate their display using Supercal.

It's a bit fiddly, and things may look wrong initially, after having become accustomed to what ever was present before, but everything looks so much better with a nice calibrated colour profile. I know there are hardware calibration devices that can do an even better job, but Supercal works well.

It can take a few tries and you probably want to set the gamma slider to 2.2. When setting white balance, think about how grey things looks in real life - there's more of a push towards red than you might think.

(I accidentally switched back to the default "Color LCD" profile on my MacBook today and it was shocking!)
