What screen profile is your laptop using? sRGB is one of the better ones if you're not using it.

I wish I could tell you. I'm pretty clueless when it comes to that sort of thing. How do I find out? What do I look for?

Update: Here is what I found.

Is there any way to adjust my coloring?

Try the 'Add' bit? Abode sRGB is one of the better ones I believe.

How do I get "Adobe" sRGB?

I was able to get another version of RGB from here http://www.color.org/srgbprofiles.xalter and that along with some other adjustments seem to have helped a little but the orange on my Lambo still isn't as bright as my TV. It's like there isn't enough saturation on my laptop screen.

Well, I would go into the monitor settings and see if there is a gamma setting and or display setting you can change. There should be a walkthrough monitor calibration tool built into Windows. If not, google search for one.
And see if you can reset your monitor before doing so. Maybe the built in contrast or brightness settings are set improperly. I don't know what computer you own to help further but you should have access to all these features.

I couldn't really find a saturation setting which seems to be the biggest issue (i think). I did find a calibration but it was a bit weird to understand. It had allot of gray settings. One setting being 3 bars each starting with black and ending in red, green, and blue (These were maxed out toward the color and away from the black so I just went down 2 on each of these). It did help a decent amount once I went through it though. I may mess with it some more to see what happens. Just afraid of messing it up but if I make small adjustments at a time I should be ok.

I didn't mention anything about a saturation setting. Plus, you didn't find one cause there isn't one. What I do notice despite the difference of saturation is that the brightness and contrast settings are off. Neither match and until you get that right, color is meaningless. Colorado will change once you adjust those two settings.

Btw, you are trying to match your tv, right? You sure your tv settings are adjusted properly?

I am trying to match my TV. I was working on my smaller TV earlier when I noticed it but it looks the same on both of my TV's. My pics look pretty equal in color to everyone else's on my laptop. I will mess with the contrast some more. I think the brightness is as set 2 notches from max.

Update: Just messed with it some more and I got it looking pretty good now. It's close enough to make me satisfied.

That you are. Almost looks like a miniature. Check out this guy for a little inspiration- David Levinthal. Be careful cause there is some adult themed miniatures.

a Couple of my favs so far

First doing what?

Good shots man and definitely on the right track. I would adjust the aperture a bit. It is set too low. The background shouldnt be in focus as much as it is. Just move the slider over a bit more and you'd have some real winners.

They're passing challenges not bash the little cars out of the way challenges

I don't know why but I find this picture funny.

It's like a crazy smile.

Reminds me a little bit of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man in Ghostbusters.

 

[strtgng]

A few of mine. Love photos in Forza 4... so much better looking than what was in FM3!

Hmm

I think you're right.

 

[zr1chris]

Yup, I definitely see a family resemblance.

When Clarkson first said he didn't like the look of the California I never understood why.

Now I do lol.

Finally figured out how you all were finding tracks with a sunset. My first attempt.

I agreed with him immediately when he said it. Looks kind of strange to me. It's aggressive but calm at the same time, if a company does it right it looks fantastic, but it just doesn't work for me.

Thanks, I'm not a huge fan of the style of the Depth of Field on Forza, GT5's has a much better execution on the DoF
