Also useful for breaking a lease if one is so inclined. :-)

A word of warning Jim
Sodium sulphide toning releases a 'rotten egg' smell - the gas
responsible is a potent fogger for sensitised emulsion. Best to do it
away from your darkroom or film/paper storage areas. The neighbour's
garden is a good place! ;-) Tim

Thanks for posting the formula.  I recently got some silver sulfide so
that 
I could make a sepia toner from a formula that I have (I think it's an
Agfa 
formula; I can look it up if desired).  It uses potassium ferricyanice
as 
the bleach.  The only chemical that wasn't in my darkroom was the silver

sulfide so I'm ready to go.

Are these liver of sulfur formulae better, worse, different ... ?  I'm a
bit

of a toning newbie.
