Yeah - it really punishes the pixels. Rather use flickr and embed the photo directly.

You have to calibrate any monitor - on LCD is you only need do it occasionally instead of on a regular basis with a crt. :)

Unless you have a colourimeter I'm not sure a crt is going to be worth it - unless you having one lying around.

Nice - did you opt for the bracketed exposure method or the cheaters method of three exposures from one RAW file? I use both ;)
