My website is :

http://www.beautyboat.co.uk/Baby/index.html

Although it's under construction and most of the txt is garbage, the graphical content is coming on. Any thoughts would be welcome.

I have some problems regarding the colours.

They display fine on my professional Iiyama monitor, but on cheaper TFT monitors like the Dells at work, the colors are all over the place! They look foggy and lack punch. We paid £250 (430 USD) to give you some idea of the quality! I tried calibrating them, but they still don't play ball. Should I have picked different colous?

I'm pulling my hair out here. Should I redesign my site and have a simple boring white backround and black text so that the cheaper TFT's can display the colous accurately?

Any help would be welcome.

That is one of the struggles of designed for screen graphics -

I would try and find the best compramise between the monitors you can test on, and just accept that not everyone will see your perfect artistic vision.

Then take comfort that the colors you use are probably barely even noticed, and that the content is what will be most important to visitors.
