JPGs and SAVE for WEB Save Too Dark

I have seen many discussions on this topic and they always end in going to different websites and following what I consider to be a very complex set of instructions to fix it. The instructions are extremely intimidating for me as there are many steps messing with things on my computer, my monitor, and in Photoshop that I'm not comfortable with. What I really would love to see is a set 'beginner' instructions. This is a common problem, I would love to see a more common kind of fix for those of us that aren't so technical. <3
The Problem:
I create an asset and try to save it. No matter the format, (except PSD) it saves Very dark and wipes out all of the detail with black.
Thanks in advance, smart folks!

Impossible to say without seeing it. But it's probably much simpler than you think.

Action to save for web leaves too large file size

HI
In earlier versions of Photoshop I could create an action to batch save photos for the web, setting them to save as 600 by 400 and they would end up about 70kb. I could also stop the action and adjust the file size to a set size. With CS3 no matter what I do the files always end up about 500kb!!!
Is this a bug in CS3 or do I have to do something different?
I have to put the files on my old computer to run the action still in Photoshop 7
thanks for any help.

I tried to create a 1 pixel blank and it wouldn't save it, I tried a 5 pixel blank, still wouldn't save it so used the Save As and got a 40kb jpg file. Ran the Action and it ended up as 76kb.
Created a 30 pixel blank square and it ended up 40kb too.
Get info on the files reveals the stated file size is correct.
I created and ran the same action on my son's intel iMac running CS3 and the same result. Tried a tiff instead of a jpg and it ended up even bigger. When paused at the Save for Web window, it says the original file is about 800 kb (the reduced size to 600 by 400 from the original image) and it predicts the final web size will be about 65 to 75kb as it should be, depending on the image. But always ends up about 500kb.
Going through the process manually produces the correct result.
This is getting rather frustrating!!!!!
Would someone be able to try creating the same action on their intel mac running CS3?
All I am doing is reducing the size of say a 3000 by 2000 pixel image to 600 by 400 pixels, applying a very small amount of unsharp mask, then saving for the web to about 70kb. I have the original images in one folder on my desktop and another folder to place the converted files into.
thanks for any more help anyone can offer.

The screen saver too dark

ok i had my e65 a fews days now and i have
nearly figured out everything as in all
the functions with the exception of these,
which i need help with.
1, when the sreensaver comes on i notice
that its too dark and i mean, if i wanted
to quickly look at the time and/or date
i have to focus properly to see it, i cant
quickly glance on it as other phones
is there some sort of control to adjust the
clock on the screensaver to turn the brightness
or contrast up a bit that i may have
overlooked ?
2, whats the real purpose of this light sensor
on the top right hand corner ?
i have covered it a few times in day light and
low to no light at all but nothing happens.
thanks in advance

KD44
"Did you work out how to do it, I've still not sorted it either?"
nope i have not figured them out yet... the screen saver is too dark and that light sensor must be some sort of joke.
MINI RANT MODE ON
the light sensor really annoys me to look at knowing it serves no purpose at all and after using a few other screen savers its too bloodly dark. it would of been better if nokia had put nothing there at all at least this way i could understand that there is nothing to look at.
as for the slow capture actions of the camera..... well i will leave that for another time
MINI RANT MODE OFF
apart from that though the nokia e65 is the best ever phone i have used to date. connecting via VPN or SSH to my home server is a breeze, using SIP with www.sipgate.co.uk is like talking on a house phone (very clear) the internet is fast even with the stock browser.
too many good points to mention
sorry KD44 i think i slightly diverted from the main question
if you figure them out then please let me know.. its obvious that one other nokia knows the answer.
Thanks

Photos in Web gallery too dark

Hello,
I just updated to the new iLife.
I tried the new Web Gallery function and the photos are too dark compared to the view in iPhoto.
Same happens with galleries in iWeb.
What's wrong?
JO

There is a color problem when publishing pictures from iPhoto 06 and 08 (as well as when e-mailing a picture).
The problem being that the images are published with their original color profile, whatever that is. Further, if profile is missing in the image in iPhoto, the profile will be missing in the output. (BUT iPhoto displays correctly in case there is an EXIF tag specifying sRGB).
The result is that colors will not be displayed correctly on the WEB (or in e-mail clients), more or less depending on OS platform. This applies both to images and their thumbnails.
Compare the iPhoto album http://www.tomasjonsson.eu/IPhotoTests/
with an album with correct colors http://www.tomasjonsson.eu/PictureSite/Albums/Pages/PreAndPostProcessed.html
In Safari, only IMG_9465 and IMG_5182 will show a difference - since those are the only images without a color profile. However, in other MS-Windows browsers, most images will be displayed incorrectly.
Note! Most digital cameras produce images without at color profile but with an EXIF tag. In iPhoto:Preferences:Advanced choose Embed ColorSync profile, which will add a profile corresponding the EXIF tag. However, the images that you have already imported will not be fixed.
Note to Apple: Show EXIF colors space and embedded color profile in Info pane. Add command - ASSIGN profile. And in export dialog - add option Color Space.
HOW IT SHOULD BE
Images on the web (and in general also e-mails) should be published in sRGB color space (otherwise they will not be displayed correctly in browsers on the MS-Windows platforms, with the exception of Safari, viewing images with a color profile)
Images should have a color profile, in particular the sRGB images (otherwise they will not be displayed correctly on the MacOS platforms. Maybe close to correct if you have calibrated your monitor to PC-gamma)
Actually all images should have a color profile, period. If the image does not have a color profile, it is just a pile of randomly colored pixels - to be interpreted freely by any displaying device, which they do.
For a demonstration of profiles and WEB see: http://www.gballard.net/psd/golive_pageprofile/embeddedJPEGprofiles.html
However, DO NOT follow this guys advice of omitting the color profile for WEB publishing because of overhead. The overhead is less than 1% of a high quality image. (I measured 0.5 - 2.5 kByte)
WORKAROUND
After exporting from iPhoto - use Photoshop and CONVERT TO PROFILE all images to sRGB color space. Save file with color profile.
Note, make sure that images without original profile are treated correctly (most often they are sRGB, check the EXIF tag with Preview application)
Note, apply also conversion to thumbnails.

Slice and 'saving for web and devices' not saving all images in selected area

Ive designed my site in illustrator and now im using slices and save for web and devices.
When I save a slice as a jpeg or gif it saves the text and but not the background image behind it. I haven't locked the background image and all the content is on the same layer in illustrator so why is it doing this and how can I stop it?
Thanks
James

Thanks for your reply. Yes, my Photoshop CS5 is updated to 12.1. I'm running OSX 10.5.8 and have tried viewing in Safari, Firefox, and Chrome with no improved success.
I have been reading these forums for about 3 hours trying to find the answer to this question but am still at a loss. I have found one article here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7974006/overlapping-image-in-photoshop-splice-how-to-fl oat-with-css
which explains using an "absolute" value in CSS to lock images in place. I'm currently working in Dreamweaver to see if it's a common error in Photoshop when resizing browser but is easily fixed on the CSS side.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks!

IGlasses for Snow Leopard - Too dark? Anyone else?

I'm finding the new iGlasses upgrade for Snow Leopard way too dark. It's useless and I had to uninstall it. Anyone else having this problem, or found a fix?

Umm,
That does seem odd.
For a long while now the Ecamm Stuff has been very reliable.
However the range of Macs that their products will now work with has become very large which may mean some configurations have been missed.
I am using iGlasses on a G4/1Ghz Dual Processor with a UVC compliant cam.
I have created a Daytime and Night time Preset for myself as the lighting here changes dramatically from day to night.

How to set up User id and Password for Web services or authentication

Hi ,
I am new to web services . I have created a new Web service in SAP , and while creating Service defination , set the Authentication as LOW for server proxy .Then created End-point in SOAMANAGER with USREID/PWS requried .This WSDL i am planning to share with Third party to call from Java application.
But my web service checks for authorization which needs to be set up to allow the user id and pws .
So question is how do i pass my user id and pws as i do not see this WSDL with User id and pws option displayed for me when i test this using SOAP UI .I saw some of WSDL with tag "AuthHeader" with user id and pws tags in them .So how could i get them ?
Or requirement is that my Third party should be able to access my Web service in PRD and also be able to have authorization to auth object embedded in FM inside service defination .So how is this acheived ?
Thanks,
Sitaraman

Hi,
After creation of WSDL , you will get URL lkie http://idessapdev.ad.infosys.com:8000/index.html.
For this URL your third party system need sto add id and pwd for accessing like http://idessapdev.ad.infosys.com:8000/index.html&userid = 111&pwd= wwgw.
this is not the exact syntax. you can check with your third party system for this URL.

Using Color profiles and exporting for web browsers

I've been trying to figure out the answer to this question. As I'm sure you're aware Safari supports color profiles while other web browsers like Firefox do not. I would like to setup Aperture so that it displays and exports images for the widest audience possible. Unfortunately it embeds a color profile and my images on the web only display correctly in Safari. I've tried changing the proofing profiles and export settings to no avail. I didn't seem to have this problem in iPhoto, a picture there looked the same on screen as it did in Safari and Firefox but I can't achieve the same with Aperture...

Thanks for that information, unfortunately I'm not really any closer to solving the issue since I've already tried that. 1) by default, doesn't Aperture automatically embed the sRGB color profile? 2) if I set view>proofing mode to sRGB shouldn't what I see on screen match what a "dumb" application such as Firefox does when it ignores the embedded profile and display sRGB? I've tried going into the preferences>export settings and changed everything to sRGB IEC61966-2.1 but I see no difference in the final image between that and the default setting.
I guess my question is more specific to Aperture since I don't have this problem with other applications. For example, in photoshop if I do Export for Web it strips out any embedded profile and when I open that image in Firefox and Safari side-by-side they are exactly the same. But not so when I export an image from Aperture, when opened in Firefox it is desaturated and flat and of course in Safari it honors the embedded profile and looks fine.

CS5 and Epson 3800. Prints Too Dark.

I've seen old posts about this, but nothing recent with this configuration of software and OS:
After years of printing successfully with my Epson 3800 from a PC, I recently switched to a Mac (Mac OS X 10.6). I am using Photoshop CS 5.
Despite many iterations of monitor calibration trying different settings, my prints are consistently about 2 stops too dark. I'm very vexed.
What is the latest information about this and how do I resolve this?
Thank you.

WebAccess just (normally) wants port 80. You can static NAT it, or reverse
proxy it through BMgr. Older versions of BMgr (3.6 or earlier) put in
default filter exceptions for reverse proxy (both port 80 and 443), but
later versions require you to add your own filter exceptions.
NetWare Web Manager - do you mean for Novonyz Web Server? If so, the port
used depends on what you configured for it. You could use static NAT, or
generic tcp proxy, or (I think) reverse proxy for whatever port Web Manager
is using. Newer web manager for Apache uses port 2200, I think.

Best settings to render video in HD and best for web, from Nikon D90?

Hi all. I am just starting to try video edition. Ive got a Nikon D90. I'm using Premiere CS5. I did a video, dropped the .avi files on the workflow and everything went fine, rendered on Quicktime format/preset NTSC DV 24p. Got two questions:
1) Is there any recommended setting to start a project, and;
2) Any recommended setting to both render on its highest quality and an internet quality?
And same for audio (got a zoom H4N), recording in best WAV quality.
Thanks in advance!

More close to home: Adobe TV.
1. Drag a clip from the project panel into the New Item icon like this;
2. Depends on which player you want to use.
