The following rows of images should look fairly similar. This test shows if your Browser or image-viewer handles color-correction correctly. It establishes the correctness by using distorted input-images and color-corrects them to the original. Eg. the images must look alike. If a particular row of images looks quite different, it simply means that your software does not correctly handle the color-correction used in that row.
In a way, these tests actually reverse the effects achieved on the previous page. If you do not get the expected results on this page, the same test on the previous page would have been wrong as well.
Again this test borrows from the example put together by John Bowler to test the Office2000 package, and which was based on ideas by Michael Stokes, Microsoft® and Hewlett-Packard®.
The first line of images uses gamma-correction only. The images should all look alike. If they differ the one on the left will be too dark and the one on the right too bright, meaning that your software does not handle gamma-correction.
