Wait a minute, I've got an idea. I just put on my Ambervision sunglasses, which I use to cut down glare at night while driving, and lo and behold, the whole bin looks yellow! :eek!:I don't see it, but I believe that he can. Digital photos often do not bring out subtleties in color or texture. Even worse, they sometimes add "artifacts" that aren't really there. That happened with photos of some bins I was selling, which looked like they had spots on them. Those areas that looked lighter were due to reflection of the flash. OTHO, digital photos can pick up stuff that's really there but that you can't see easily such as fine dust particles. Brock</blockquote>
