Hi Jon,

I, too visited your webiste and found your cool image viewer. I do a lot 
w/imageData in Rev (ButtonGadget and ImageGadget) and understand what 
you're doing.

Couple of observations:

1) Are you doing this natively in Delphi? Or do you use an external 
library to do the image manipulation?

2) Do you program in C? If so, you may consider rolling your own 
external for Rev using the OpenSource ImageMagick libraries. They would 
be able to do what it is you need in a fraction of a second.

Unfortunately, like Flash, Director and other Xtalks, it doesn't have 
direct support of image gamma, black-point, white-point and other 
filters. These things are typically best left to externals. Here at 
Altuit, we've considered building such an external when we get the time:-)

best,

Chipp
