Do you guys use profiles other than the default "Colour LCD" profile from the display tool in the control panel?

I used the calibrate tool and adjusted mine as closely as possible to my Viewsonic CRT on my desktop PC. Now it looks really blue, but it's "correct" at least (using my PC's monitor as a benchmark)

My Viewsonic monitor's "Viewmatch" settings are at 9300K, which I set as the "Target White Point" on the powerbook's display calibrator assistant... I also set the gamma to 2.2 (TV/PC).

I was just wondering if there are some sort of universal settings that graphic/web designers used for cross-platform uniformity?

I love to experiment with other PB users' profiles and use the ones that look good. I used to have some good profiles, but lost them.

Anyways, using a sRGB profile (comes with Adobe apps) provides a rough estimate for PC monitors.

Also, check these out. Handy for webdesign:
