Yes, white would have been better or black. I'm dreaming of a transparent one with only UV absorption...
You can also share some of your results to get feedback.

Re: need some help
thanks , yes i was actually just about the share my latest print...imo this is my first successful print(when i say successful i mean complete with no holes or sagging) so i imagine the i set up the machine properly right? at this point there should be no doubt that my graphics and computer settings are correct?? thats what i was worried about.
After taking a posters advice , i switched the exposure time to 3 seconds up from 2500 ms and it seems to have allowed for a much more stable and complete print.
i do have rather visible print lines that you can clearly see in the photo, im not sure if these are unavoidable or if there is something i can do to further increase the quality of the print.
i used red makerjuice sf with slightly less than 1 percent red pigment added.
My settings were
0.025mm slice thickness
exposure time was 3000ms
bottom exposure 12000
bottom layers 3
anti aliasing was enabled and set to 2
the lift and sequence was kept at 6000 and settings in that area not touched at all and whatever the default settings were i left them at that.
so this photo is the result of what i achieved with the above settings and i would love to get feedback on how i could improve future prints.
i would also love to better understand what some of these settings actually mean so that i could better trouble shoot my prints and dial it in because im sort of driving blind, with the exception of exposure time and slice thickness, i really do not understand what many of the settings actually mean...is there a printing guide somewhere for the software?
