Thanks, I was following the previous png mock-up colour for colour,  
apart from one XO icon change request (to pink outline and green  
fill), and some extra Activity icons.

Your PNGs were definitely more vibrant (and used sRGB IEC61966-2.1)  
than the previous mockup PNGs. Did my PDF colour generally look  
OK/'expected' and not washed out (other than being a bit heavy on the  
dark blue strokes)? Just wanted to check as Walter reported he was  
seeing washed out colours relative to what he expected to see on  
screen – sounds like different profile/gamma issue but not sure if  
this was an issue with the original PNG that I was working from.

Thanks, yes these are a more strong/saturated set of colours than the  
other PDF mock-ups, will need to see feedback from others on the  
colour issue...

Eben/Sean: can you confirm the colour profile on your two previous  
mock-ups was right/expected (rollup_mockup1 & rollup_mockup2, PNGs  
both had the same "ibook" profile and were a little soft on the  
saturation vs. Fredericks images)?
