I think it is good, if you want a bit more colour just double up the cellophane.

mark do you have any results of how cellophane panned out? im going to buy some and test it out :)

ill end up buying some of those rosco gels, but since i got a new 580exII last night my budget for the month has just been stretched... even for $12
