Hey gang,
Not sure where to post this, so I'm posting it here (actually, I think I posted something similar, but never got a response).
I'm having a serious problem with my computer. I play around with the brightness and constract on pics in PS Elements and they look awesome at home, but then I get to work and look on the computer here and they don't look anything like what they did at home.
At home I have an iBook G4 14.5" monitor. At work, I'm using a Dell with XP and a 17" flatscreen (HP). I realize that some of the problem is that with laptops, the screen gets darker or lighter depending on how you hold it, but I didn't think that that would make a big difference.
Examples of this are http://photoblog.servatus.com/images/20051103065328_img_3454.jpg and http://photoblog.servatus.com/images/20051030211500_img_3239.jpg, where they looked much lighter on my laptop, and http://photoblog.servatus.com/images/20051106104329_img_2787.jpg, where it looked much darker.
Can anyone offer any insight? This is very frustrating, especially since I'm trying to get better at manipulating pictures in PS.
Thanks so much!
