Do you have a seperate TV in the room for daytime viewing? Do you watch everything on the projection or only movies?
I have a sliding glass door behind the couch in my room, and recently bought some room darkening liners to hang behind the curtains. There was too much glare during the day....much better now.

Zarak,
No, one entire wall of our living room is basically all windows facing the backyard, without any window treatments (yet). So, the room is VERY brightly lit during daytime. The projector is next to useless during the day. We kept a 32" tube TV on the built-in shelf on the front wall, and installed a big pulldown screen in front of the shelf. I just uploaded a series of photos of our "living-room HT" in the AVSforum. Please see this thread.

Looks like you have the zen thing going there.
Those wall cables are not that bad.

We just added a DLP to our mix, too, Sushi - and we have a wall of glass, 26 feet high, facing the lake . . . you're right, TV during the day is a wash. Although with our old rear-projection TV, we would mostly just see ourselves reflected back in it during the day, so it's an improvement on that. But the clarity after dark! Wow! We did an A/B test throughout the course of a day and you could tell two hours before the sun went down who the hands-down winner was.

chess, do you mean those abstract-looking things on the wall??? Those are maps of the Burgandy wineries (Cote de Beaune and Cote de Nuits). Not exactly Zen... LOL

Even more pics up! BigWill's system, and Rcvecc's, too! These are great!
And no, I most definitely am *not* complaining, Sushi! With a view like this, we never watch the screen until dark anyway! {grin}
