I have a NEC-Mitsubishi LCD Monitor – NEC MultiSync LCD1860NX. I use Photoshop Album and Photoshop Elements to capture/store/edit my photos. I use online printing services, mainly Ofoto and Costco, to print my photos.
I have read a lot about calibrating monitors but could not get a full understanding of what needs to get done. What I get back from Costco and Ofoto is not exactly what I thought I was getting (shades of red, or green, slightly lighter or slighter darker photos).
Playing with the monitor settings can drastically alter the colors of the photo as well. How should I set my monitor to be as close to the natural colors as possible. Is Adobe Gamma of any help? Finally is there anything I would need to do to ensure that my printouts from Costco of Ofoto are as close to what I see on the monitor as possible.
