I just found out my monitor was all out of whack, and just for comparison, here's what happens when you don't realize how oversaturated every image your editing looks because of improper monitor correction:
Before calibration:
After calibration:
I posted a portrait of my girlfriend that looked pretty normal (albeit a little saturated, because I like bright colors), and after basic calibration it was like neon. I sent the picture to her mom and she probably thought I was insane. I'm so glad I haven't started to put my portfolio together like that, I'd be hopelessly screwed.
Anyways, double check those monitors people!
