Images when uploaded to the web the colors shift

I have been having a problem lately with my images displaying funky when they are uploaded to the web. The images become over saturated. The color space is sRGB so I am not sure what is going on. I never have had this problem till this year. I use lightroom, then export the image and finish editing the image in photoshop. When I export from Lightroom I pick srgb color space.

People say so because by default the system assigns sRGB color space for the monitor profile. This in effect turns off the color management of the display in color managed programs when images are displayed with sRGB profiles. Then this makes the display of sRGB images in the color managed programs match the non-color managed programs. This also makes people wrongly believe that non-color managed programs are using the sRGB color space while in fact it is the color space of their monitors because non-color managed program have no clue about any color spaces. Monitors may differ a lot from each other while the sRGB color space like any other color space has very specific colors.
It is a very simple test, View > Proof Setup > Monitor RGB. This turns the color management of the image display off. Does this match the sRGB images? The answer will be yes if the system is using sRGB color space profile for the monitor regardless of how good or bad the monitor calibration is.  If it does match and if the monitor profile was created with a calibrator then this is like hitting the jackpot which as far as I know no one has claimed so far. Yes, on theory it is possible but on practice  it doesn't happen easily and that was the main reason the color management was invented (physical devices like monitors can't  match device independent color spaces). Everyone with a custom monitor profile made using a calibrator will detect a difference between images displayed with Monitor RGB and sRGB on any kind of monitors - not only wide gamut but standard too. This means it is typical to see difference between color managed programs and non-color managed programs on properly calibrated monitors.

  • When I change the color using windows 7 color, I get a prompt to change back to firefox default or everything is very slow. Isn't there another way to fix the i

    When I change the color using windows 7, apparently firefox runs slower. The videos I watch are spotty and looking like it's in slow motion. Sometimes I get a prompt to use firefox colors and this fixes it. But why can't I use other colors, and are there settings to help me fix this problem? Thank you for any information you can give me.

    Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    *https://hacks.mozilla.org/2010/09/hardware-acceleration/
    You can check for problems caused by recent Flash updates and try these:
    *disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
    *disable protected mode in Flash 11.3 and later
    *disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

  • Image based of all the colors currently in the swatch

    Are there anyone who know a method or script that enables generation of an image based of all the colors currently in the swatch?
    I would want it to fill a grid, with a patch of the color with the colors name underneath it, and with the name of the swatch as a header on a black background. Maybe even with the lab, cmyk and rgb values underneath each color.
    The colors need to be arranged in the same manner as in the swatch.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I'm sure this is possible, but you might want to post this in the scripting forum or on ps-scripts.com.  Here is a link to a topic along the lines that you want on ps-scripts.com:

  • How do you fill in a form that was saved as a template? When I try, the "template" shifts, which is not how a template should work!

    How do you fill in a form that was saved as a template? When I try, the "template" shifts, which is not how a template should work!
    Templates, as I understand them, are fixed; you can "fill them in" without shifting them. Yet, I've saved doc as a template AND it shifts. Argh!

    Thanks for your response.
    I've managed to fix it but I wouldn't recommend the following as I'm sure its unsupported and I'll probably have problems down the line
    On the host
    * mv /etc/zones /etc/zones.bak
    * reboot single user
    * apply kernel patch (the one that ultimately I had to get on and which was giving pre-req dependency errors when running zones)
    * create a new zone now that host system is all up to date
    * Copy the operating system directories of the new zone (the one that's all patched) over the troublesome zone (the one that can't take the patch). Take backups first
    * cd /zones/new-zone/root
    * find sbin -print | cpio -pudm /zones/bad-zone/root
    * find usr -print | cpio -pudm /zones/bad-zone/root
    * find lib -print | cpio -pudm /zones/bad-zone/root
    * cd /zones/new-zone/root/var
    * find sadm -print | cpio -pudm /zones/bad-zone/root/sadm (this copies patches and pkgs directories and I'm sure a lot of other stuff that I didn't want)
    * mv /etc/zones.bak /etc/zones
    * reboot host
    * boot the old zone up. It should now have up to date patches
    I'm sure there are real no-no's in taking this approach but it seems to have worked for me. I'll update if I find there are some horrors down the line

  • Why do the colors in my RGB image change when uploading to the web?

    I'm editing my image within Photoshop & have worked with it being RGB from the very start. I place the saved image in Dropbox so I can access it from my phone to place on all my social media accounts. Once I got  to upload the image on the web to my social accounts the colors completely change becoming dull & drab, it looks nothing like the image I saved. Been racking my brain on how to fix this but haven't had a solution that worked yet. Suggestions?

    Hi Danippo13,
    check out this video which explains very well the difference between different color profiles Visualizing Color Profiles on Vimeo and remember that the web uses "standard RGB - 72 dpi".
    I will recommend this setting  in Edit Menu> Color Settings

  • Site works in preview but not when uploaded to the web

    I have been trying to add a link from my website to another project I have been doing, a mini site made with Flash.
    I wanted the link to open up a new window with the animation playing inside, and it works perfectly when I use "preview in safari" within dreamweaver, but now I've uploaded to the web it just opens up a blank window.
    This is the url for the homepage:
    http://kayleighthompson.com/
    and the link is the ActiveAid button at the bottom of the navigation list.
    If anyone knows how to get this working I'd be very grateful! It's for a uni project due in this afternoon :S

    I think you may be having a problem with how Flash is displayed. The Flash on the first page doesn't display in IE8... although it does in Chrome. The second page doesn't display in either. Your link is correct. I checked that.
    Wish I could be more helpful, I'm having the same issue with IE and DW CS4 myself, and can't figure it out.
    This may help: http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/wiki/documentation
    Good luck! Let me know if you figure it out.

  • HST: Loading images when deploying on the web

    In a headstart generated form I have images (not iconic buttons!) (bmp's) which are included in the form with unbound items with the hint <IM>oge.bmp</IM>. Where should this images be located on the formsserver? Is it neccessary to convert them to GIF?

    Willem,
    Depending on the Headstart version and patch level, the images have to be in your Forms60_path, or in the directory that the following registry setting is pointing to:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ORACLE/Headstart/IMAGEFILE_PATH
    The images indeed need to be converted to GIFs to be able to use them on the web.
    Kind regards,

    Try replacing
    BufferedImage dimg = new BufferedImage(w, h, img.getType());with
    BufferedImage dimg = new BufferedImage(w, h, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);Looks like your "down"-image is grayscale, and therefore also dimg.

  • Why can't I see the changes in my image when I move the sliders in LR's Develop Module

    When I use the quick develop tools in the LR 5.3 Library module, I see the changes in the selected image. When I switch to the Develop Module, when I move the sliders for the different tools, nothing happens to my image. When I go back to the Library module, I see the changes, but not in the Develop Module. Why is this happening? I have a PC running Windows 7. I have 30 gigs of space on my C drive. I recently updated my LR to 5.3 and subscribed to CC. I uninstalled the LR program and reinstalled it from the cloud. Same problem.

    I have built my whole site in iWeb, and didn't seem to have any issues. I made some minor changes to it today, and when checking it online after the upload, all the fonts seem distorted and wrong, some images show up completely different than what they are suppose to be, and the whole thing looks like a hot mess.
    ANY IDEAS WHY???

  • Muse: Text is a image when uploaded, why?

    Why does the text typed in Muse turn into an image when previewed and uploaded?

    Hello
    This phenomenon is called "Rasterization" and it usually happens when you use a system font for your text.
