You're very welcome dear! It's one of those things you don't think about until you do.
I never thought about monitor issues until I was making Moulin Rouge icons years ago and went away from home to a "foreign computer" and - oy vey. This was in the days when most monitors were still the old fashioned CRT monitors and I realized my work looked way too dark on other screens, so I had to bump up the brightness quite a bit so other people could actually see my icons.
When my sweetie sells her painting on ebay or elsewhere online we always add a disclaimer that the colors look different on different monitors and may not reflect the painting accurately. Fortunately we've never got a return and a "this looks different than I expected" message; she's only gotten "this looks better than I expected!" responses. So far.
