In some cases it's the monitor... not the settings. For instance... I have two Mitsubishi DiamondTrons on my workstations, a 17" and a 19". Both have excellent video cards, and both are calibrated and adjusted to the best of my ability. However, this system that I surf on has an old 17" Gateway monitor that is dark and muddy at best. It's also low res... a minimum of .28dpi. Images that look moody, but legible and crisp on my Mitsubishi's look dark and muddy on this monitor. And since you can't tell what the guy on the other end of the internet will be browsing on... it's kind of a crapshoot when you upload. Only way to really tell is to test view images on various monitors, and that's not practical for most people.
