i was making my website, and i published something to the internet, and i asked my sister on the other computer to test the page, so she tested it, but the colors were totally different
i made a blue thing, and on the other monitor it looked gray!!!
how can i configure my monitor so it displays the real color
you cannot really…just gotta try to stay as true to web colors as possible. You have to compensate sometimes and just make sure it is pass-ible. Really no way to account for the different monitors. Just have as many test subjects as you can
btw designing on tft’s is not good since most peoples will have a crt of some sort. TfT’s are abnormally bright and what looks good there may not look good on crt’s. I would say test on a lcd but design from a crt
i dont think he has a problem at all. It is just that colors on a flat panel are drastically different than those of a crt which most folks use. That is his dilemna. His sister viewed something he created using a flat panel. and she viewed it on a crt and the colors were different. Just a designer booboo. He needs to test on a crt and flat panel.

I have a TFT monitor, the colors are brighter/different but you can fix it, all you gotta do is put in the CD you got with the monitor and calibrate it after the settings, if you don’t do it, it’s your problem.
I did that with my flat panel also but flat panels are just brighter plain and simple. Unless you have a super duper CRT the colors will not be as vivid on a CRT leading to color problems. We have a total mixture for test here at our studio and Ill tell ya the Flat panel is always the hardest to peg.
