[QUOTE="MacNewbie, post: 1425231, member: 23576"] yes it seems like web browsers (or is it the websites themselves?) are stripping the photo of the color profile causing it to look dull and sallow. if i save the photo in photoshop and i unclick the "embed color profile: adobe rgb (1998) --it will look exactly how it looks on the web- sallow dull and yellow. how do i save the photo so that the color profile is "unstrippable" i usually click on "Embed color profie" whenever i saved a picture and it sucks knowing that when uploaded to the web, it will ignore the embedded color profile. my current color settings are: Working Spaces -custom -rgb: adobe rgb (1998) -cmyk: us web coated -gray: dot grain 20% -spot: dot gain 20% proof setup: -working cymk ----- i also found this website [url=http://viget.com/inspire/the-mysterious-save-for-web-color-shift]The Mysterious “Save For Web” Color Shift | Viget[/url] it tells you to either "save for web" or to go through 3 steps in color settings/proof set up to ensure color accuracy. the problem is, saving for web adds more saturation to the photo. there's no way around this it seems. i tried unclicking "convert to sRGB" and it changes to that exact sallow dull yellow color that i dont want. when i try clicking "convert to sRGB" it more closely resembles the original photo, but it seems to be adding saturation and changing the color a bit. regarding the other solution- the 3 steps to ensure color accuracy-. all 3 of those steps ensure that ur looking at the photo without the RGB settings...but i actually want the rgb setting. much help needed thanks [/QUOTE]
