Colour Quality

[shaung]

Hi There

I'm currently woking on a site that uses a colour changing background image ie, starts off purple at the top and changes to black. Problem is it looks great at 32bit, but looks poor at anything less than this.

Is there a script available that will detect what settings the user is running and display a popup box if they are not running at 32bit along the lines of "This site may not display correctly with your current settings"?

Thanks for your help.

You would be better off checking for that screen resolution and the enabling your troublesome background for only those people. Be aware, one in ten or twenty doesn't use scripting.

The thing is most websites (or anything else) looks pretty crap at 16-bit so it doesn't really matter. The other thing is most people use 32 bit anyway, and the people who use 16-bit are probably likely to not use javascript anyway.

Cheers, thanks for that. Puts my mind at rest
