this is how I see this picture on my monitor, look at the vignette how fucked up it is, im unsure how bad it will look to you as you are looking at it on a good monitor, not sure if you can see all the different coloured blocks I can see in the top right corner above the address bar

A screenshot only takes a picture of what the computer is TRYING to display, not what the monitor is ACTUALLY displaying.

Take a picture

Matt,

Please check your contrast setting and brightness.
You may have the set down for reasons like, CS's pages are really bright etc...

If you are doing picture editing etc don't get a £90 quid 21" monitor, it'll be nasty.
