On Calibrating My Monitor OK, so I've been editing my images for years, using PSE 1.0 and 4.0, Photoshop 66.0 and 7.0. So, you'd think I should have been smarter. I have a 19-inch LCD monitor and tried to calibrate it using Adobe GAmma. This method worked well when I had a CRT but, as I found out, it's not to good with the LCD. Further, many folks say Adobe GAmma isn't a good calibration means for any monitor. But, here's whatI did. I was making the adjustments and when the screen said Save, I failed to rename the profile and, I'm sure I overwrote the Adobe 1998 profile. Anyone have any ideas about how to restore the default profile. Because, now, when I open a picture I edited some time time ago, the screen often shows something awful that prints as it did when I first created the file. If I adjust the image to make it look good on screen, the resulting print ususally is awful. So, am I stuck? Do I delete the programs and the Adobe GAmma file from Control PAnel [if I can] and reload? Do I get a hardfware calibration system - say Spyder, etc.?
