Hi, I too have the same problem as Chris. Even after completely removed it from the System Preferences, I still can’t get the brightness back to its original setting. Does anyone have the same problem too? Can anybody offer some advice on that please? Thanks!

To uninstall, first make sure that Shades is not running, then right-click or control-click the Shades Preference Pane in your System Preferences, and select ‘Remove “Shades” Preference Pane”.

All Hail Philip Foeckler.

Thanks Phil, Luckily I stumbled across this fine App. I’ve been cursing Apple for about a month now, my eyes are eternally greatful.

Don’t forget that calibrating your monitor for colour accuracy includes the brightness setting used when calibrating. If you adjust the brightness, your calibration will be off, requiring you to re-calibrate. Constant adjustment of brightness is simply not practical in a colour-calibrated workflow.
