Colour Problems!

[jacob_rossi]

I'm trying to build a site with a certain colour scheme and when I publish it,
the colours look great. But I tried viewing the website on a different
machine, and what looked like a blueish grey on the machine i was working on,
looking like puke green on the other. I thought at first it was the operating
system, I worked on a xp pro machine and the puke green showed up on a win 98
machine. but then it did the same thing on a xp pro machine. I have a feeling
it's the difference between crt and lcd, but I'm not sure. If any of you know
of ways to fix/ or get around this that would be great.

Thanks.

I don't think a different monitor can make that much of a difference, unless
it's totally screwed. Did you test it in different browsers at all? It may
be that you made a mistake in your colour definition that one browser
forgave you for and the others didn't...

Ya the computers that I notice the colour change have the most up to date IE
explorer. I'm just wondering if it's the video cards. I notice the colour
difference on other sites as well. This site [url]www.barkandfitz.com[/url] is black and
pink. But on the other computers it's like dark brown and a light brown. I
think I'm forced to find colours that work on both.
Thanks for the reply
