We have taken great care to present our glass, in digital form, as true to actual
color as possible. However, computer monitors vary widely, and one color may not
appear identical from one monitor to the next. The following information is provided
to help you replicate original colors, as accurately as your monitor will allow.
- Set your monitor to 16-bit (thousands of colors), or 24-bit (millions of colors)
color. Eight-bit (256 colors) will result in grainy images. If 16 or 24-bit color
doesn't seem to be an option with your equipment, you may need to install additional
video ram (VRAM) or a graphics card. Check your computer and monitor user's guides
for information.
- Most monitors are calibrated at the factory to optimize crispness of text, not color
accuracy. The result is a "bluish white," rather than a neutral one. To display
color accurately, you need to calibrate your monitor to eliminate color cast in
the display. Many computer/monitor set-ups come with monitor calibration software.
Most color graphics programs include monitor calibration software. If neither of
these are available to you, countless third-party programs are available -- off
the shelf, or as freeware or shareware, that will work with your equipment. You
will achieve the most accurate color replication in our web page by calibrating
your monitor as follows:
- Gamma: Set to standard Gamma value of 1.8.
- White Point: Set to D50 (5000 degrees Kelvin), or seek to achieve
a neutral white.
- Ambient Light: Follow instructions included with you calibration
software to adjust for ambient light.
- Brightness & Contrast: Changes to these settings will impact
color. Higher brightness settings will create more washed-out colors.
With a carefully calibrated monitor, our digital glass images are surprisingly accurate.
But keep in mind, no representation of glass color can ever be as true as the glass
itself.
