Re: rangeslider, a "Tale of Two Thumbs"

Here are screen shots of three and four thumb sliders currently in use 
in Photoshop.


This three thumb slider shows a histogram of the range of colors in a 
photo. Moving the end sliders chops out the dark and light areas while 
the middle thumb shifts the brightness of the overall image lighter or 
darker.


This is a four thumb slider. Like the previous one we can compress the 
range of colors by modifying the end points but this one has two middle 
thumbs which does something magic that as a non-artist I can't really 
describe. Something to do with how many degrees around the color wheel 
the palette is shifted, or something.
