Calibrating Computer Screens


Hi everyone,
I would like to know how to calibrate my computer screen so that when I am adjusting colours in Photoshop they are as close to true colours in my images as I can get.
Any ideas are most welcome.
Thank you again for your trusty support everyone at Betterphoto! This site just keeps on getting better!
Kind regards, Nicole from West Australia

  To start you can use a program called 'quickgamma' which is free and will do a pretty good job. If you feel that you want to get something more advanced after getting the feel of this program, I would suggest doing looking into a spider. This is a device that you put on your monitor and in conjunction with software will calibrate your monitor to a high degree. Before you spend money, I would try the free program first and then see if you feel that further control is needed.
