Photos changing color?

When I put my photos into iweb they become more intense with contrast. Is there anything I can do to prevent that?
Pasquale

Hi Pasquale...
I'm assuming that you see this difference on the published page and not in iWeb, right?
This type of color shift can occur because iWeb is converting your jpgs into png format and not preserving the original color profile in the jpg.
iWeb will convert your jpgs to pngs anytime you make any change to the native image in iWeb....like resizing or applying effects like opacity changes, reflections, drop shadows, stroke frames, etc.
In order to keep this conversion from happening (and prevent color profile changes), you really have to get your images ready to use as is before bringing them into iWeb. What this means is that when you are laying out your page, you figure out that you want to use one of your 5 megapixel images at 300x400. iWeb is capable of doing this for you very easily, but at the expense of converting your jpg to a png file. Instead, if you use some external graphics program (like iPhoto) to scale your megapixel image directly to 300x400, THEN drop it into iWeb (and click on "Original Size" in the Inspector Metrics tab...and make sure there are no shadows or frames applied by the template), then your jpg will be used "as is" without any conversion to PNG.
It's a pain in the you-know-what, I know. And this workaround is the way I have come about to dealing with the image conversion issue. It will also save you some file size space to get your jpg images pre-processed like this, since iWeb's PNG sizes are usually pretty big comparatively.

  • Photos change color automatically after snapping

    Hi admin board,
    I got a luminar 925 and it have been update for latest OS.
    At beginnig, this issue was happen and still unsolve after updated.
    The photo always change to yellowish that compare with the live screen of camera.
    I dont know why the photos is automatically adjusted the color after snapping and that such color is not so real. I want to off this function but it seems there is not feature to set up the color temperature for photo before imaging.
    Even nokia cam, smark cam, window cam, and several third part sotfware have been tried but the issue was still same.
    I just want to capture a photo that its color must be matched with the color in live screen. That could be wonderful if it could be control color temperature because your phone is now using Zeiss lens and functional well with hardward and firmware.
    Hope to recievce your solution for this kind of issue.
    Note: my phone has been updated to lastest OS and there is no recommend to update more.

    Thank you for ur advice,
    But actually i already tried to switch off the flash even switch off the focus flash, but the result is as mentioned in my revious post. There is any functions that can adjust the color temperature or color setting before taking a picture?

  • Photos Change Color When Published

    Good morning,
    Wondering if anyone might be able to advise me on why the colors of my photos appear washed out when I publish my iWeb page to a folder. When I open the page in Firefox the colors are not as vibrant and saturated as when they are in iWeb. Would this have anything to do with iWeb compressing the photos when publishing to a folder?
    All photos have been added to iWeb as jpegs.
    Thanks for your time.
    Cheers,
    John

    John:
    How do the photos look with Safari? I vaguely remember a thread which mentioned that Firefox didn't manage color and Safari did or something to that effect. What is the color profile in the photos (sRGB is preferred for web use) and do you have iWeb setup to optimize photos upon importing?

  • Photo Changes Color in Edit Mode

    What I've noticed is that when I put a photo into Edit mode, the photo automatically lightens. When I go through the process of editing my photo to the color range I want it to be in and click on Done, the photo goes back to the lineup where it displays with a darker or more saturated shade, thus rendering my editing decisions null and void. Has anyone else noticed this? Is there any way to correct it so that the photo appears the same way whether it's in Edit mode or not?

    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

    Go to Select > Color Range to sample the unwanted color(s) in your image.
    Go to Image > Adjustments > Replace Color.  Adjust sliders for Hue/Saturation/Lightness.

  • Need help changing colors in a photo.

    I am trying to help some artists in mexico with their weaving. We are using elements 11 on vista 7. We would like to change colors in a piece to see if they are pleasing to the eye. Is it possible to change colors thoughout the whole piece at once? Using a brush to paint over each and every area would be so time consuming as their work is quite intricate. If this is not possible on Elements does Adobe have another sotware that would accomplish this task. Thank you for your time.

    I did not know I had to go to expert as i have never used this type of program before.The help was just telling me the tools were on the left side. I thank you for pointing me in the right direction. I have a feeling it will be easier for me to learn Chinese.

  • Images Change Colors between monitors while the UI stays the same

    Hey! Im having an issue where photoshop changes the colors when I move the window between my monitors, seen here: http://sta.sh/04y5s60vf3j This isnt due to the monitors themselves being different, it actually changes after a few seconds of moving it inbetween the monitors. The left one has been callibrated with a spyder 3 elite which I no longer have access to. I applied the file with windows color management instead of the spyder utility. The second one is new, and it is not callibrated by anything, but instead was done by hand with the built in brightness/contrast/custom RGB settings. Both of them are very close to eachother, enough so for my tastes. but when photoshop changes what the image looks like, it's causing problems. Interestingly enough, when I disable callibration for the monitor on the left, the image does not change colors between monitors, but instead always appears as it does on the right. but then they don't match up and the whole screen looked washed out because it's uncallibrated, so that doesnt do me any good. Another interesting thing to point out, is when this image is saved as a .JPG, and viewed with firefox the image appears exactly like the monitor on the LEFT (which is my main monitor) despite the left monitor being the one that is force changed. does anyone have any suggestions? It also appears that windows photoviewer is behaving the same way, though firefox does not. Meaning when I open an image in all 3 on the left monitor, they look the same, but when opened on the right monitor, windows photo viewer and photoshop both display the image as brighter and redder than firefox does. This is frustrating, because it seems photoshop is changing the image with my callibration on my left monitor to match what it looks like on the web, which it does. but it doesn't do this for the right monitor, or when the left is uncallibrated. Another issue I can see with this is even if the UI is the same shade of gray, the images are different between the monitors because of this change. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Alright! So I reread through all this, poked at some things on the internet, and I'm going to attempt to summarize what would be a good solution for all this (And it seems, it still won't be perfect, but to get myself into the best environment I can for not messing with images for an hour trying to make them look nice before I post them to the web. I painted something yesterday on the cintiq, popped it over to my laptop screen and it just looked washed out and terrible.)
    1. Get a X-rite EODIS3 i1 Display Pro, Callibrate laptop and cintiq. I do have the money to drop on something like this, especially if it's a time saver.
         Things I'm not sure about:
              a. There was a ton of complaints about the software not working when I checked reviews, but also a ton that said everything was great. most of them were mac users though.
              b. I'm not sure if problems would still be posed, even while calibrated, by me having a wide gamut monitor.
              c. I'm a terrible excuse for a human being and I think the colors showing up brighter on the wide gamut screen is pretty (I should just make my images this bright on a normal screen and there won't be any issues. >.>)
    2. Set Firefox to color manage (easy enough)
    3. Change my photoshop working space to sRGB (since they'll have been calibrated at this point)
    3. Accept the fact that most of the people who look at my work will be doing so on a monitor that is almost certainly uncalibrated, and I can't control what they will see on my screen, but I CAN control if the colors are -actually- what I want them to be on any properly calibrated device. which is probably the best way to go anyways.
    4. Make paintings, have fun.
    Now, you two have been going on about all sorts of interesting things in here, and it seems that calibration issue run much much deeper than I ever thought. Do either of you have recommendations for how I should tweak this list of things to do or other things I can/ should do? I'm not currently a working professional, but if I have anything to say about it, I will be within a few years (I'm going to school for illustration and studying concept design on my own time) so it'd be useful for me to get into good habits now.

  • How do I make the background of a photo one color and the object another color?

    I have a photo of a windmill with the sky and clouds as background.  I would like like to keep the clouds as is and change the color of the windmill.  How can I do this?

    You can use the HSL panel to change relationships between tones and colors. For example use Luminance mode to darken a sky by adjusting the blue and aqua channels or use Saturation mode to make an image monochrome except for one dominant color.
    If you want to change color completely first use the HSL panel to remove color and then paint with the adjustment brush set to a solid color; although that’s a bit more tricky.
    See examples below:

    I use an iMac running V. 10.10.2.  I have an Epson WP-4530 printer.  Is there a printer driver that will enable one to print photos from color negatives?
    I have already tried downloading the drivers from Epson as per one person's suggestions, but the dialog box isn't anything like what was suggested--the choices in the box weren't the same for the most part.  I don't want to lock up the computer or disable the printer for normal printing, but I have a lot of old negatives that I would love to have prints from.

    I am using the latest software from Epson for Mac OS 10.10.2 that I downloaded last week.  I seem to remember that the older software (we're talking 6-8 years ago) had to option to scan slides or negatives and would convert the results into positives via the scanner.  I don't like the most recent scanning software because it jumps right into the scan before giving you a chance to change the options.  It uses the selected options from the previous scan which are sometimes right, sometimes wrong.  Thanks for your reply to my question!

  • How do I Batch change color profiles in CS4?

    I need to change color profiles on hundreds of photos at a time. CS4 does not give me that option it seems, only lame options i'll never use

    Probably easiest would be recording an Action of a conversion and running that with File – Scripts – Image Processor; Batch or Droplets are other ways of using an Action.
    Scripting would be another option.
    Which options exactly do You mean with »lame options«?

  • Change color of clothing in Photoshop?

    Hello,
    There's a nifty filter in After Effects called Change Color, with which you can select the color of a shirt in a photo, for example, adjust the threshold of the color to change, and quickly change the color of clothing, in very realistic way, in one step. I don't see a similar tool in Photoshop. Does anyone know if there is one? Thank you!

    If you're looking for penultimate quality, I imagine you'd want to try to select/mask the garment in question with a high quality selection/mask, then do something like a Hue/Saturation adjustment (layer).
    Russell Brown's video shows how to use selection and the Refine Edges function, which I'm sure would work with a colored shirt or whatever quite well...
    http://tv.adobe.com/watch/the-russell-brown-show/masking-basics-in-photoshop-cs5/
    Short of going all the way per the above video, the Hue/Saturation function itself allows you to affect color ranges.  Sometimes this can be enough in itself.  Depends on the level of realism in the detail you want to achieve.
