the original looks better to me. The new one looks orangey and oversaturated. Your new monitor might be brighter, which I've notive going on other computers, but I can see all 29 shades, so I'm assuming there's nothing wrong w/my moniter b/c I've checked it multiple times. |

Okay from the 29 shades thing and Heather's comment I just took the shades and put them against a black background like you said and can't differentiate between the last 3 shades. That means I need to calibrate my monitor but how the heck do you do that? It's a pretty new HP vs17. |

The original looks better to me, but then I often get told that my images look wrong. |

How about someone putting together a tutorial on calibrating a monitor. Maybe someone that knows what they are doing? I would try but I don't think I fall into that category. |

Okay, I'm going to try ANOTHER one... as soon as I find one that doesn't just apply to one program ;)
One thing you want to do is make sure you're using the sRGB color profile in Photoshop for the web. Windows machines are set to it by default and the VAST majority of people don't touch it. I even have my Macs set to the sRGB and to Windows Gamma.

My previous statement was using my laptop.
I am now looking at the two first photos on my work LCD (a Samsung 204BW) and things are a bit different. The original photo looks fairly washed out and with the exception of a tiny bit too much red, the re-edit looks much better. |
