[quote=Redrover;269617Color on prints deeper...Anyone have an idea why when they're transfered to the computer the colors are not true.

Yes a photoshop program can help bring out the true colours you see but be careful not to add too much saturation. You usually should only have to darken the picture a bit if the colours appear washed out from too much light exposure. You might also want to increase the resolution on your monitor. Even the picture that Jason adjusted looked washed out on my laptop but looks great on my home computer.
The tank is coming along very nicely.

Good job!

Check the white balance on your camera, also make sure you have no wierd color settings, like warm or sunny or some fool thing. If you can take pictures in RAW mode do that. Then any even googles picassa(?) (free) has an automatic "fix" mode balances colors/light etc... If you have an SLR than chances are you can do RAW. I luck out my DSLR has no "auto" modes so it shoots what I want it to.

Well, A sad Year for more than a few of us reefers...some of us lost our tanks and thought that was heart breaking.
But My good ol freind Ronnie (Redrover) lost his life in a battle with cancer a little while back.

Was good to have shared the same passion for the hobby, a few bad jokes, some good laughs, a few wobbly pops and some saltwater armpit rash...
My prayers to his loved ones, he will be missed.

Marc.

Sorry to hear that Marc....

Oh my what sad news. I had only met him a few times but he was always happy to talk about the hobbie.

Your thoughts are with his family and friends

Very sad news.

I just re-read this thread from page one. Ron's tank was amazing, he must have really loved this hobby.

Fare thee well, good sir.
