LR Flash Web Gallery Colors are too "rich"

Hello everybody,
I am not even sure anymore that this is a LR only question, I apologize, but I encounter my problem while using LR.
If I create a Flash LR Web Gallery, the colors of the pictures are way off when viewed in the browser. They are too warm and very saturated.
First I suspected my browser, but it color managed (Firefox). If I go and open a single image directly in ~/bin/images/large with the same browser, I get what I expect (and what I see in LR).
But if I run the flash presentation, I get the overdone colors.
Can anyone help with a hint?
Thanxx, Peter

No, because LR's Web module is currently based on ActionScript 2, so no 3rd party Flash web engines are colour managed.
If you have some skills with Flash, SlideShowPro for Flash is one option. Coupled with their Director content management system, which comes with a LR export plug-in, you can have a smooth workflow and colour managed Flash output. Of course, remember that your visitors must also have Flash Player version 10, and most still don't.

CS4 Color looks too saturated on Screen?

Hi all, not sure why but my color in CS4 Photoshop look oversaturated.
When I view them with ACDsee viewer or Canon software they both look the same. But when I use photoshop the images look too saturated. It's not easy to edit my photos, as the out put does not look the same as when I am editing.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance, awaiting any messages that may help out.

What are your colour management policies in the Color Settings panel? And do you calibrate your monitor?
You can get increased saturation -- actually ugly colors -- if assigning a higher gammut profile to an image tagged with a lower gammut profile, e.g. assign AdobeRGB to an sRGB image.
(Note that 'Assigning' a profile gives far different results than 'Converting to' a profile.)

Exported photos are too saturated (reds especially)

I use iPhoto to store all my photos and to do occasional quick edits.
However, exported photos look so much more saturated than they do when viewed (double-clicked) within iPhoto, especially the red colors. This is also true when the photos are viewed from directly within the iPhoto Package file, and also when viewed as a thumbnail within iPhoto - the colors are much more saturated.
Why is this happening? After editing my photos within iPhoto I can never export them the way they are meant to look no matter what I do. It seems as if iPhoto uses its own color profiling that is useless outside the iPhoto application.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as this is becoming more and more bothersome.

I have trashed the Preview pref files, but to no avail. I have also tried the following:
- I have tried uploading the image file from the finder onto Facebook and Picasa and viewed in Safari and Firefox. The images also look consistent (mostly) with the aforementioned applications!
- I have tried viewing the images directly within Safari and Firefox by dragging the image onto the respective browser icons in the dock and in Safari it's the same Preview Saturated look (prob because Safari uses the same rendering as Leopard Preview), but in Firefox it looks like it does in all the aforementioned applications...
- I have tried opening them in my WindowsXP VMWare using the default Explorer application and they look consistent with the aforementioned applications.
- I have tried creating another user account on my Mac and logging in to preview the images, but it makes no difference.
Any further suggestions?

Embedding a movie (slideshow) colors are more saturated

Embedding a movie (slideshow) in Acrobat Pro (9 + 11) the colors are changing. They are getting more saturated, a bit darker and have more contrast. The "preview-image" is the same the colors are changing when the movie starts playing. Does anybody has an idea?

Hello Fredelbert,
not yet seems to be a problem of acrobat. If you have a solution let me know.

Randomized Colors are Too Dark. Questions on Color Boxes

Hey all,
I am attempting to change the color of the plots on a mixed signal
graph remotely using the "color box" control which works fine; however, I
am also setting the color boxes to a random color when the program
first starts up which is where my problem lies.
What I currently am doing is that I have a random number generator
pumping out a number after which I multiply the number by 10000000, just
to give me some colors brighter than black, and then I have that wired up to
the color box control I am setting the random color on. The problem with
this is that although it does produce some decent colors some of the
colors produced are quite dark and pretty hard to see on the mixed
signal graph.
I could make the graph background a different color if I have to in
order to see a majority of the colors that come out, but I would much
rather just have the colors come out more on the bright and colorful
side.
So I have two questions for you guys and gals:
1) How do the colors of the colorbox get determined using the unsigned 32 int?
One such example of why I am confused is that the number that I have
going in is 5726420 from the random number generator (+ being
multiplied), but on the colorbox control the RGB value is R:87 G:96
B:212. Why is that?
2) Is there any kind of algorithm out there that someone has done
that can produce values randomly that will give kind of neony colors? or
anything semi-bright for that matter?
Any help is very much appreciated!

Screen colors are too bright

Every time I restart my computer the colors of the screen become extreamly bright. I can't control them in the display settings. The only way to fix it is to unplug the screen from the computer and back in or by plugging or unplugging the tv.
Can anyone help me fix this problem.

The reality is that we start with grade-certified monitors and use broadcast standards. COLOR is designed from the ground up to comply with CCIR Recommendations for SD and HD through an SDI-Video I/O card such as Kona3 by AJA or Blackmagic Extreme. Grade monitors vary in price and capability, but are invariably only natively accurate with SDI inputs, although there are some clever devices on the market that allow some flexibility with internal intervention. I own and operate an eCinema DCM-23 --original cost was around $14000.
There are some Flanders models that are now down around $5-6K. Not necessarily for hobbyists.
The alternative is to force a non-qualified monitor of some type into a "close-enough" mode with extensive calibration and specific tools. There are examples of people getting reasonable results with DVI and an eye-One calibration tool. However, it requires vigilance, as this grade of monitors usually don't hold their settings for very long, and can display variable behavior with different types of media, picture levels, and operation time.
It is not a simple problem and no magic solutions without a price tag.

Colors are too bright when Indesign CS 5.5 exports .swf

I created a document in Illustrator and transferred the layers over to InDesign CS 5.5 to make an interactive .swf. The colors stayed the same until I exported the .swf from Indesign and the golden yellows became obnoxiously bright. What's even stranger is that I tried to do a screen shot of both to compare, but the color returns to normal in Photoshop and it looks like there's nothing wrong. It seems that only the preview is having issues with the color. Am I missing anything relating to color calibration?

How do i get Firefox to print web pages in black and white only (colors are interpreted in grayscale and some are too light to be read)?

i have a black and white laser printer. Firefox prints web pages by sending color images to my printer. The printer uses greyscale to interpret the colors. i really want Firefox to send black and white images to my printer, because with greyscale some of the colors are translated to print that is too light to be seen clearly.
Can this be done?
Thanks,

Hi
I have a problem with color prints from photoshop elements 12. The pictures are too light and with strange colors. I have a Canon pixma mg615I0 printer and use mac os X yosemite. The pictures are taken with a coanon eos 550d in the color space sRGB. I have followed adobes recommendations and have tried both letting the printer respektive photoshop manage the colors. But nothing works. I see that there are different opinions about which is best to do so I tried both. I have the latest printer driver installed. Can anyone help me with this?

Do the following:
Print a test page from the printer. Perhaps the print head needs cleaning via its maintenance facility.
Let the printer manage colors, not PSE
Calibrate the monitor

Color Settings Images are too warm and light while editing

Can someone help me understand color settings in Photoshop. My images look much lighter and warmer when I edit them than when I export them using Save for Web.
For a while I though it was because I was importing a raw file with a different color depth and profile so when it got saved as a jpg that the colors and brightness would shift. Recently, I made a graphic in Photoshop and it still looked warmer than the export. I also know temperature is displayed wrong in photoshop because when I create a neutral gray color its too warm. When it's exported using save for web the temperature is shown correctly.
If it was a mis calibrated monitor it would look warm all of the time. I'm using Photoshop CS3, my color profile is sRGB with color management turned off (its off because espon recommends this setting because it can better manage colors). Although I tried changing these settings and they don't seem to make a difference. Here's neutral gray image with screen caps to show you what I'm talking about.

Calibration tools calibrate your monitor to produce colors on screen that will look proper given your room lighting. Think of calibration as being a very precise, accurate adjustment to the contrast, brightness, and RGB controls of your monitor. Obviously, if these controls are set differently, your images will view differently. Calibration results in the monitor being set properly for display of images at a known gamma. You can get fairly good, but not totally accurate, calibration visually, without a colorimeter, using appropriate software tools.
Calibration tools also produce a profile that allows color managed software, such as Photoshop, to adjust its output for very precise reproduction within the gamut of your display. Again, there are some tools that produce a profile visually, but you get better results with a colorimeter.
Why should this be necessary? You want to display your images with the intended colors. You also want the proper colors to be sent to your printer or the files on your website. If your monitor isn't properly calibrated and profiled, pixels from the image file that are, say, light gray (RGB 200,200,200) might appear as middle gray, near-white, or even tinged with red or blue. If you adjust the colors in the image file so it displays the way you want it, the pixels in the file will no longer be light gray and will display as something else entirely on a different monitor, when printed, or when viewed at a website.

Automatic Fill colors for Report Builder pie charts and graphs are too repetitive and hard to differentiate

I have pie charts or other graphs that show multiple results (7-20). I set the "fill" colors to Automatic so that the results are dynamic (I don't want to specify a color for each result because I will then be limited that those results--I
prefer it to be dynamic).
I noticed that once you get above 4 or 5 results, no matter which palette is used, the "automatic" colors are so closely similar that it is hard to differentiate which color pertains to which result (group). For example, you could have a
reports that breaks the results into age groups like 1-18, 19-21, 22-25, 26-30, 31-41, 41-50, 51-65, 66-80, and 81+. By the time you review the results, there's likely to be 3 pairs of colors (or more) that are so closely similar that you can't
tell them apart (2 shades of yellow, 3 shades of blue, 2 shades of orange, or green, or teal, or purple or whatever).
Is there a way to use Automatic for the color scheme (I don't care which color pertains to which category) but also specify to not use colors that seem to bleed together (so that someone viewing the report can actually tell the difference)? Using SSRS
2008 Report Builder, if it makes a difference.

Hi JNehman,
Reporting Services provides a list of predefined, built-in palettes that you can use to define a color set for series on your chart. All built-in palettes contain between 10 and 16 color values. You cannot extend the built-in palette to include more colors,
so if you need more than 16 colors, you must define a custom palette.
A custom palette let you add your own colors in the order you want them to appear on the chart. A custom palette is especially helpful if the number of series in your chart is unknown at design time. For more information, see
Define Colors on a Chart Using a Palette (Report Builder and SSRS).

RED is too saturated on my monitor. What can I do?

Hello,
I'm using a Apple Cinema Display HD 23". I calibrated the display with the Leopard control panel but it seams that my monitor has a reddish tone compared to the monitors in our office.
I runed the calibration process several times but still, the red color is *way too saturated*.

Thank you Cmaig for your reply. Yes, I probably created a bit of a confusion with my 'reddish tone'. Well, the colors are ok, the red is just way too strong. If I create a graphic on my computer I have to boost up the red saturation in Photoshop by +35, so that the graphic looks the way I want on other computers (On my computer it now looks just red). I have to do that because my monitor displays the red too strong.
BTW, I don't use any Photoshop color correction. I also see the same effect when browsing through the internet with Firefox or Safari.
I also have a MacBookPro with Leopard. I also calibrated the display and the colors are the way they should...

Photoshop CS6 colors have shifted for PSD files; no longer match Bridge colors, resulting jpg colors off too

Until last night, Photoshop has been working relatively well** (see below) However, I processed a batch of DNG files through Bridge and saved them as PSDs. When I opened up the new PSD files in PSCS5, the colors had shifted - more green, less saturated.
I went back to the DNG files and opened each up separately in PS - the color looked good. I edited them, saved them as PSD files, and reopened them in PS - the colors were bad.
I cleared the Preferences (by holding Ctrl+Alt+Shift) when restarting PS. Although it cleared up the pre-existing issue explained below **, it didn't fix the issue with the colors.
I rebooted my computer. No luck.
I looked for available updates. None available.
I recalibrated my monitor (ColorMunki). No luck.
I don't know what I did/what happened to cause the problem. The day before, everything was fine.
I tried to fix it by experimenting with option under View. The closest I could get the colors to matching those shown in Bridge was to set View--Proof Colors-- Monitor RGB.
But here's the kicker - when I did a "save as" in PS the resulting jpeg had the same gross color shown in PS before setting the proof colors to Monitor RGB - and the jpeg colors are gross in Bridge and PS! The same thing happens if I run a batch of PSDs via Bridge and save them as jpegs. The resulting jpegs look gross in both PS and Bridge.
HELP!
I'm using a PC with Windows 7. All the images jpegs, DNG and PSD are in the RBG color space.
**(except for one weird issue - when I would try to open up a color balance layer, it would open a levels layer instead)
