"If im correct, that isn't a KDE4 color schema, it's Digikam own."

Thanks for the info, had never occurred to me that this would be useful in photo/image apps, but looking at the screenshots I can see why. I guess if it's just colour changes I can apply them through the normal KDE appearance settings as well. My eyes are going to be very grateful I think... (although the browser is going to look weird :)

Thanks again.

Middle gray is 127, 127, 127 (RGB 0-255 settings) but because it's computer monitor what has backlight and not gray-card what reflects light, it might be better to have 64, 64, 64 colors.

Middle gray is needed because other wise other surrounded colors affecst the photograph colors and it's "developing" is harder.

I were once in a great studio where was own room for Photograph manipulation, there were 15 PC's in that room, whole big room was painted with middle gray, all stuff there was middle gray and there were special lighting what were calibrated once a week and few times a week every monitor were calibrated (all monitors were those 10-14bit and not normal 8bit monitors). And then admins allowed normal users to use wallpaper what user liked.

And users were having photoshops etc open and their MacOSX default Blue background really were a shiny blue DOT in that room and I was shocked that they didn't understand that one of new students problem to have too warm images was simple as that, WRONG WALLPAPER in color controlled room :-D

With middle gray, all colors will be seen much easier and neutral as possible.
