I'm beginning to think that there is something wrong with my computer/monitor
set-up (Windows XP on a CRT monitor): The .png images that various POV-Ray users
are uploading to the newsgroups look 'dark' on my system, and I have no idea
what the cause is. (Well, I'm guessing that the images *should* look brighter,
although I don't know for sure.)

This dark appearance shows up in a range of applications, not just a specific
one-- the latest Firefox (v28.0); my older Photoshop; and in Windows' Picture
And Fax Viewer. My own .png images made in POV-Ray look fine on my system, as do
..jpegs.

To better show this, I've made .jpeg screenshots of two recent uploaded images,
by FractRacer and Pekka Aho. They are accurate reproductions of how the .png
originals appear on my end. Can someone compare my .jpegs to the original
uploads, to see if they visually match?
