New to monitor calibration, needs advice

2008-04-06 by atruwcdx

Hi,
   I have recently decided to go from CRT's to LCD's. To that end I 
have purchased a Viewsonic VP950b 20"( for my tools in Photoshop) and 
have a LaCie 320 (as my main screen) on order. I also purchased the 
Spyder 3Pro for calibration. I am running a PC on Windows Vista. My La 
Cie will not arrive until next week some time, so I would value any 
advice on what I can be prepared for when I get into calibrating the 
monitors. My principal function is as a photographer, with some graphic 
design and would want to calibrate for accurate colour prior to sending 
files to the Photo Lab.
The kind of work I do can be viewed in my albums at:

Many thanks
