And remember, you can color the target. I colored mine with highlighters. Looks good, and I'm expecting to hear some grief about my choice of colors.......it's a tuff crowd in these matches - haha

Great idea! There is a house plan printer in town. I could send him the file and have it buffalo size!

I'm not sure how people go about "coloring" these targets, but for those who might care for a more visible version of this, I offer the attached. It is identical in size to the original (which you can see by holding up the one in front of the other), but the bullseyes are somewhat more visible. It does make clearer that some of the target circles are not concentric (and this is true in the original as well). This target results from an exact image copy of the original, edited for contrast of the various parts. I know that I'll be able to see it better, and others may as well. Bon appétit.
That looks great. As long as our leader Fly103 agrees. I printed it for me all ready.
I usually just stick dots on the bullseyes.

i took mine to the paint program on this here laptop and colored them red for the high score and green for the lesser.
still can't see them at 25 feet let alone yards!!

Yeah, in my case the higher black/white contrast is the best. I'll be able to see the larger circles pretty well, but the smaller ones will likely just appear as dots. Maybe visible, but sighting on them will be challenging.

It's painful for me to do anything in the area of computer graphics -- especially if I haven't done it in a while and have forgotten whatever I'd figured out at that point.
So I'm happy if anyone else benefits from it as well.

I have a book several inches thick of "current passwords" . None of which work half the time. set up a new printer to print the target, took all day and a room full of expletives!It's painful for me to do anything in the area of computer graphics -- especially if I haven't done it in a while and have forgotten whatever I'd figured out at that point.

I can only shoot at 50 yards, 25 yards/meters with rifles is strictly forbidden in my shooting club, only from 50 (minimum) to 100 yards for rifles.

We use a (now very large) MS Word file for passwords -- heavily password-encoded. Update it regularly, and the (encoded) version is backed up. That at least allows us to search for passwords.
Printers recently have become both easier to configure in some ways/cases and much more of a mind-numbing pain. We finally packed it in with our high-quality Canon last year and, against my better judgment (my wife wanted it), got a (somewhat lower functionality) HP. HP has done some great things with its remote software, and their support has been great, but the UI for managing the printer directly (and even doing some simple things), isn't nearly as good as the Canon's was. Now my wife wants to toss the HP because she finds it so frustrating to use in various respects -- and she's a UI design expert!!deerstalkert said:
Too much of that stuff is still being done by the developers/code-writers, and (guess what) they design it for people like themselves -- or for what will take the least time/effort to implement. Such is life.

Well, you may in fact be younger than I am -- or certainly not a lot older. I used to play in a community band with a woman who, at the time, was 93 and very computer-savvy. I thought a UI is something you go to a hospital to get treated, and not something they give you there! But I suppose that depends on the hospital. In the case they do, I should think it would be very advantageous to have studied law -- even with A. Lincoln. Also, I have seen some hideous results of hospital treatment by a nephrology group. Scary. So best to avoid those kinds of UIs for sure.DS, i understood about , well some of what you wrote. just remember you are talking to a guy that studied law with A. Lincoln.
