adobeRGB v sRGB for monitor

[infeeneetee]

helo..

i've change my monitor profile from aRGB to sRGB . i look sRGB gives me the real colors all of my pictures on the web, "real colors" means same as i was editing in PS..

my question is, will this change affect my monitor in displaying my adobeRGB profiled pictures?

thanks.. ;)

Those are not monitor profiles. Those are color spaces to assign to images that are scanned or taken with an imaging device. The profile you use for your monitor has to be created with a profiling device like the Colorvision Spyder. Once you create a custom monitor profile with the colorimeter(Spyder) and software, you save that as your default monitor profile. If you don't have a colorimeter package, use Adobe Gamma, located in the Windows Control Panel to create the profile. It's not as good but it's better then no calibration. If you have installed an Adobe image editing software, you should have it.
