I got some decent results, but nothing that looked as good on the page
as "Whalers' Cabin" does on the screen, for instance.  If I try again,
I'll try for more subtlety -- as you said, split toning should not be
too obtrusive.

Playing with split toning, I find myself wishing for a WYSIWYG
workflow in Photoshop.  Have you had any thoughts about that sort of
thing?

Thanks,
