Which of these diamonds is ok for a person like me who doesnt care if the stone is a slight tint of yellow, or have a couple small inclusions...my budget and preference is to get the biggest diamond possible for under $1000, but it has to look decent and sparkly. Here is the link: http://www.solomonbrothers.com/DiamondComparison.aspx

Thanks :)

Out of these, I only like #4 and #6. #4 has only a G in symm which results in a down grade in cut to VG. Might be iffy, need IS to check it out. Best choice is #6 for me. EGL stone forget about it, fish-eye. :P
 
Thanks StoneCold....what would these stones look like as far as being the size they are on my size 7 finger? Will they appear to be small, If I could see a similar stone or ring with the stone on a hand that would be good.

4 and 6 only show promise, thank you for taking the time to post those links SC. As to the hand size there are photos in the engagement ring folder which generally mention carat weight and finger size, but bear in mind that this is only a rough guide. Some with size 7 fingers have small hands with thicker fingers, others large hands and more slender fingers which can affect how large a diamond looks, so if you could try some on in person at a local store thats your best bet.
 
Wow thanks StoneCold and Lorelei, you both are great!!! Developing my engagement ring has been easier because of you, can''t wait to show you all pics whenever everything is final :)
 
Good Luck. :)
