Any graphic designers on here?

[owenthomas]

i have a problem with colour - i view images on my screen and edit them to how i want them to look.. i then pop them onto cd and get them printed but the colours don't seem to match what i'm viewing on the screen.. this is also the case if i view the images through my dvd player (on telly) - they too don't match what i thought i'd edited them to look like..

 

i've bought Huey Pro to calibrate my monitor and figured that would sort things out but seemingly not.. i checked the 'Color Space' setting on my SLR last night and that's set to sRGB (the other option is Adobe RGB) - should my monitor be set to match the SLR? how do i do that? also, i'm using Photoshop CS2 so do i have to change any setting within this?

 

i don't mind getting a new monitor if it means i have true colour from what i see on screen to how it's printed but i'm assuming if i get the settings right from my SLR through to my monitor (graphics card?) and onto programs like CS2 i should be ok with my current setup..

 

any advice gratefully received as it's winding me up to fck!
