Laptop Images vs PC Images, help PLEASE Hi, I have decided to start editing images on my laptop for when I am away from my PC. I used to on my old laptop when I first went digital, but decided to just edit on my PC since I was home more and laptop couldn't hold all the photos. So I have no decided to go back to editing on my laptop, but have ran into an issue. I edited a few photos on my PC a few weeks ago and I just started to finish editing the same folder on my laptop. I came across a couple of images I remember editing on my PC and they looked extremely different on my laptop than on my PC. I turned my PC on and sure enough, very different. The whites on the PC held detail to where the whites on my laptop were very much blown out! Difference in saturation and some other artifacts I don't know the name of. Why is this? I did calibrate my laptop a few days ago. I have changed around the settings in PS and that didn't make a difference. I just looked up my settings on my laptop monitor as I haven't messed with these, but am not sure what they should be at. Does anyone know? Gamma, brightness, contrast Thank you for your help in advance. Sorry for the length and all the questions. Michele

You laptop LCD is probably not the best quality display. If you turn down brightness, you'll most like see the highlights, but lose shadow detail. Playing with gamma, perhaps you can get both, but the pic may look dull and desaturated. Outside of buying a new, higher quality laptop, I doubt there is much you can do. sorry!
