I'm looking for the equivalent of SMPTE color bars for my Windows systems. I would like to put up the bars to verify that the color and brightness are in the correct range. I am familiar with the GAMMA program in Photoshop and a utility from Binar Graphics. Do you know where I can find an official SMPTE bitmap? Is there a better way to adjust several monitors in my workgroup so that we have a general idea that we are all 'seeing' the same image? Regards, Mark Hart

Mark, That is another project for our growing library files. I think that we should have lots of test images up in the libarary, but it will take a little while to get there. Question for everybody, If I use something like the toaster's internal color bar generator, and then save the result as a framestore, and then convert it to something like GIF file format, will that be "official", will super-black stay super-bladk, and 7.5 IRE, 7.5 IRE? -John
