Even if your monitor is profiled correctly and supports a wider gamut than sRGB (most don't) your browser won't use that profile. On your screen when looking at your pics in Photoshop or another color management aware program you will see the rendering in as large a color space as your monitor and video card support. That is providing you have color management set up correctly. When you install new versions or new programs, you should check that those color management settings are synchronised. Bob's shot of Buddy the pup looks perfectly fine here (clean whites rendition of the fur) on the laptop I use for my email. This screen is adjusted fro 6500K but otherwise not calibrated. Notice how many times I wrote "color " in deference to your location ;-) The gallery software can be set for whatever sizing options you want although most people don't seem to do that. Mine is set to show the size I upload. I have never observed any colour ;-) shifts on sRGB files I uploaded here comparing browser and Ps/LR view of same file. *If you want to take more interesting pictures, stand in front of more interesting stuff* -- Joe McNally Cheers Geoff http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman On 4 March 2013 08:47, Ken Carney <kcarney1 at cox.net> wrote: > I would appreciate some help with this.
