Hi Jeff,
That's quite a difference on my screen! I think somebody earlier commented on the good treatment of the hair, although It wasn't obvious to me what they meant. Now I can see that the outer margin of the hair has regions that appear almost stippled and sparkly as well as more distinct edges. This is very effective.
The overall feeling of the drawing hasn't changed for me, but the greatest increase in contrast is around the hair and face. I think this is as it should be, given that that is the center of interest. The two things that I might be inclined to experiment with would be a slight darkening of the shadow where her leg disappears into the skirt, and lifting a few highlights on the folds of the dress on the upper chest on her left. That part of her torso would be brought forward with the shoulder, and I think this might help.
But as I said earlier, I'd consider keeping this one pretty close to where it is right now. I like it. It looks like a drawing's supposed to look.
