Whoa! Ten minutes after I answered Robert's msg, it struck me that adjusting
Green in *Levels* would move the blue in "Bear" more toward turquoise and
yet leave the white snow relatively white. And it does.
However, these settings can't be saved in PS-LE, AFAICT. Which makes me
think that getting the turquoise colors closer in ViewScan, and saving
*those* settings, is probably the best way for Rob to go on this problem.
