Quick Photoshop Question (1 Viewer)

Recently I've noticed that after I photoshop an image on my desktop computer to my liking (ie.- adjusting contrast, saturation, and hue), and I view the image on my laptop, I realize the image doesn't look the same. The colors are slightly off and if I readjust them on my laptop, the photos look slightly off when viewing them on my desktop monitor. I'm wondering how I should photoshop my photos so that they truly look the best without guessing which screen to go by. Thoughts anyone? Thanks

I use a 2 monitor set up with my desktop and notice colour differences between the monitors and cannot work out how to get them to match so I am also interested to know if there is a solution to this problem

You've touched upon one of the big issues of digital photography: Every screen's interpretation of what colours should look like is going to be different. You cannot control what your photos look like on somebody else's screen.

If you are trying to make everything look as similar as possible on your own screens you have to calibrate them (and this is assuming that you have control over them that allows you to do something meaningful there). If you do a web search for `calibrate monitor' you should get a lot of information what that entails.

If you are deadly serious about calibration, then you really need hardware, which costs money.
