Random images display strong yellow/green cast

system - 24" intel iMac, 3ghz, 2gb, 500bg hd, NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS with 512MB memory, OS 10.5.4. Just purchased.
System runs fine, and I love the machine. Problem is random images, jpegs, raw, illustrator files, display an awful yellowish tint, both in the preview and when opened in PS or preview. Just random, sometimes a whole folder of images, sometimes just a few. I, of course tested some of the same images on another mac, and they viewed correctly. If I save a copy to the desktop, the icon looks correct, but when opened it looks like puke. Also happens in front row when displaying certain album covers and video trailer art.
Anyone else run into this?

  • Yellow/Green Cast in Photoshop CS6 After Calibrating Retina Display

    I am using a MacBook Pro with Retina display, and Color Eyes Display Pro with the Color Eyes to calibrate my screen.  It is working perfectly, except, that when I open Photoshop (or even the Adobe updater now), the whole screen goes bright Green / Yellow!  See the photo attached, it's quite nuts and give you a headache after a few seconds of looking at it.  I have tried turning of the GPU processing thinking it would be conflicting with that, and a dozen other small attempts to get rid of it, and nothing!  I finally am back at the default calibraiton for the Retina display, and it's not that bad, but still obviously not calibrated.  I can't for the life of me find anyone else who has this issue, am I crazy?
    Thanks!

    Okay, so, I really only posted that because I figured maybe in the future someone else would run into the same problem.  I found the solution!  Color Eyes Display Pro spits out the ICC profile as a version 4 and LAB based 16 bit file.  Turns out that isn't compatible somehow (would love and Adobe tech to answer why for me, is it GPU or something else bugging out here?).  Thankfully, there is an option in Color Eyes Display Pro to change it.  I changed it to "Matrix Based" instead, and voila!  Here's a screenshot of where that option is, just click on "Profile Setting" and change the second drop-down to Matrix Based.  ICC v2 didn't work for me either, whole program crashed.

  • Printed photos have strong green cast

    Since I upgraded to Lion all photos I print on my HP PhotoSmart 3310 have a very strong green cast, especially in the shadows.
    I have tried printing directly from Aperture and also exporting the image then printing from Preview and it makes no difference. I have also reset the printing system by folowing this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1341
    A test page print from my printer looks fine so I don't think it's anything to do with the hardware itself.
    Any ideas why this would be happening and any suggestions for further troubleshooting?

    Have you verified it's a problem with the Mac, by printing to your printer from a different machine?
    Also, have you updated the drivers recently?:

  • Firefox randomly not displaying images on MS Skydrive

    I can load .jpg files to MS Skydrive, no problem. Thumbnails are fine. If I select an individual image, some display OK, some display nothing. Same if I scroll through to that image, or run slideshow. If I right click and "show original" the original image displays OK in a separate tab - so the file is there. Sometimes if I refresh the blank page the image appears but it may sit in low resolution showing "loading" permanently; if I then skip to the next image and return, it is OK (sometimes!!)
    This appears to be random - images that were OK yesterday do not display today
    The problem is not present in IE
    I have TACO installed, but have turned it off at live.com
    I have cleared cache and removed all cookies for live.com. No effect on the problem
    At my wits end :-(

    Hi david99jones, this is a bug in Firefox 13. Apparently it is only triggered by a few sites that use a low res image and then replace it with a high res image. As mentioned in this thread, it is scheduled to be fixed in Firefox 15: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/930650 SkyDrive photos & contact list not showing in FF13].
    Firefox 15 isn't scheduled for release for about another 10 weeks. You can run the "Aurora" version of Firefox 15 if you can't wait, but since it is still undergoing active debugging, you might be trading one set of problems for another. http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/aurora/
    We generally do not recommend going back a version (in this case, to Firefox 12) because Mozilla has already disclosed the security flaws in earlier versions. However, if this site is essential to your life, and you can't bear the thought of using it in IE, that would be another option during the interim. [[Install an older version of Firefox]]

  • Display random image

    Hey all. Creating my first form in LiveCycle. Haven't a clue as to what I'm doing... maybe someone can help.
    I don't know javascript, so I usually just use trial and error until I figure it out... but I just can't get this to work.
    I have 20 images on my form (named ImageField#hg), invisible. I want to display a random image when I click a button.
    Here is the code I thought would work.... it's placed in the Click script section on a button.
    var one = "ImageField";
    var two = "hg";
    var rannumb = Math.floor(Math.random() * 19+1);
    var showg = one + rannumb + two;
    showg.presence = "visible";
    If I test the output in a text box, I get ImageField#hg (# being the random number), so why doesn't it actually execute the .presence action?
    Thank you.
    -James

    I've been trying to change my thinking on this and came up with different code, but it still won't work properly.
    This frist script actually does change the images to visible... however, it's processing the variable for some reason and both images become visible on click. I didn't know variable would do anything unless called.
    var one = ImageField1hg.presence = "visible";
    var two = ImageField2hg.presence = "visible";
    var rannumb = Math.floor(Math.random() * 19+1);
    var newnumb = WordNum(rannumb);
    testing.rawValue = newnumb; // test field to see output doesn't show anything
    newnumb;
    So I changed the script to the following and it does nothing.
    var one = ImageField1hg.presence;
    var two = ImageField2hg.presence;
    var rannumb = Math.floor(Math.random() * 19+1);
    var newnumb = WordNum(rannumb);
    testing.rawValue = newnumb; // test field to see output doesn't show anything
    newnumb = "visible";
    Back to the drawing board...

  • Using PHP to display semi-random images?

    Hello,
    I'm looking for help using PHP and MySQL to generate semi-random images on my web site. Here's what I'm trying to do: I have 60 images, but I only want to display 16 at a time (for examlpe http://artisdead.net/antelopegardens.php).
    The way I imagine this is, the design has 16 image placeholders. I want Placeholder 1 (the first image) to randomally pull record ID 1, 2, or 3 from the SQL database, while Placeholder 2 pulls record ID 4-6, etc. It's important that one of the first 3 images displays first, while one of the second 3 images displays next, etc.
    I've found various ways to randomize all the images, but I'm not understanding how to constrain the randomization the way I'm looking to. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Before offering a possible solution, I should point out that your plan has a minor flaw. If you display only 16 images, and want the random choice to come from incremental sets of three, the maximum number you can have in your set is 48. The final 12 images will never be selected. For 60 images, you need 20 placeholders. The alternative is to have a total set of 64 images, and make the random choice come from incremental sets of four images.
    With that caveat, here's how I would do it. The primary keys of your records might not be consecutive, particularly if records are deleted and new ones added, so it might be a good idea to have a separate column with consecutive numbers from 1 to the the maximum. To select random numbers from incremental groups of three, use the following:
    $id = array();
    $min = 1;
    $max = 3;
    for ($i = 0; $i < 16; $i++) {
      // generate random number from current set
      $id[$i] = mt_rand($min, $max);
      // increment the minimum and maximum numbers for the next set
      $min += 3;
      $max += 3;
    // join the selected values as a comma-separated string
    $vals = implode(',', $id);
    $sql = "SELECT image FROM images WHERE id IN ($vals)";
    // excecute the SQL query

  • Bridge displaying random image

    I have a MacPro with 10.5.2 and CS3. I work mostly in the Horizontal Filmstrip mode and I am having serious issues with previews. I click on a thumbnail and a random image from a completely different folder shows in the large window. Anyone else have this issue? Suggestions? Thanks.

    Yes, Scott is right. We either put up with spurious thumbnails or with blurry previews. Obviously the latter is the lesser of the two evils.
    After
    UNchecking High-quality Previews in Bridge, you need to quit and re-launch Bridge, then painstakingly Purge the Cache for each darned folder, one by one, through the Tools menu in Bridge.
    DO NOT use the global Purge Cache command because that one is broken. If you use it, the cache will NOT rebuild properly.
    Unfortunately, I've given up all hope of Adobe fixing it, as CS4 is around the corner, a version to which I have no plans to upgrade. :/

  • Green Cast in Print

    I have exported an image from LR (my display is calibrated and profiled) and sent it to a lab. What came back had a green cast on part of the image (with and without optimization enabled).
    I have uploaded the exported image and would appreciate if somebody with a calibrated/profiled display could have a look at it:
    I can see 3 main colors in the area of the eruption:
    a white center
    a yellow band outside of the white
    orange/red outside of the yellow band
    What came back was quite green where I can see the yellow band. I can see no green at all in this image. Can anybody confirm the me, that the band outside of the white is yellow, and maybe what I should do to avoid the wrong prints?
    Thanks

    I softproofed your image to the profile of my local Costcos (wholesale chain all through the US) and the yellow center turns greenish upon doing that. My guess is they use similar machines to the Frontiers that costcos uses. The problem is that the yellow center is out of the gamut of such lab printers and that can result in color shifts if they color manage. If the lab you are using supplies profiles, use those to soft proof. You might also have success deleting the profile from your file. This will make their not color manage.

  • Strange yellow color cast after CS4 install

    I just ran into a strange problem helping a friend install PS CS4. Everything seemed to go fine, but now all of a sudden his images are displayed with a strong yellow tint. I don't mean a slight color cast, I mean a STRONG yellow tint. The images appear the same in Photoshop, the Bridge, and even ACR. I re-calibrated the monitor (Gretag McBeth) and generated a new profile just be sure, but that wasn't it. The same images viewed in other applications (Picassa, opened in a browser, etc.) on the same computer display normally. This appears to be only Photoshop related. What's also interesting is that CS3 now exhibits the same problem after the CS4 install.
    I reviewed all the color settings and workflow, and nothing is out of the ordinary. The Nikon raw images were imported via ACR, and opened in Photoshop with ACR workflow options set for 16 bit/Adobe RGB. Photoshop working space is Adobe RGB. I also installed the 11.0.1 update. But here are what may be a couple of clues. First, it's not just the image files that look bad. The colors are awful in the color picker in the toolbox. The entire color picker slider is almost all yellow and orange. And here's another good one. We tried importing some new raw images via the photo downloader in Bridge. With the downloader in Advanced mode, the image previews before download show the same yellow cast. But after I click the Get Photos button, the image colors appear correct as they flash on for a couple of seconds while being downloaded. This has got to be a big clue for someone. What's different about how the image is displayed during that two second preview during the actual download?
    The PC hardware is a 3.2Ghz Pentium 4 Dell tower (2G ram) running XP Pro w/SP3, with a nVidia GeForce 7800 graphics card, and the screen resolution is 1024x768. I'm thinking maybe a graphics card issue or corrupted system profiles, but I'm a Mac and he's a PC so my PC troubleshooting skills are limited.
    Has anyone else seen a problem like this before?? Any ideas? Thanks!

  • E-pl1 yellow/green colour blotches at high iso

    Hello to all members and Adobe Team.
    i use lightroom 3.3 and i have made a comparison between my 2 cameras with the same sensor , e-p1 and e-pl1 and e-p1, and while they have identical grain like pattern and rendering at high iso (which is what i was expecting since they have the same sensor and only the Anti-Aliasing filter is lighter in e-pl1), colour rendering at high iso is very different (at low iso its different but i have profiles with colorchecker and the differences are minor).
    So i will post raw files in tungsten lighting (the most demanding for high iso-.-- 1600 i mean and even at 800 i can clearly see the problems i am describing).
    Olympus e-pL1 white balance is really, but really bad.. everything turns green (its really bothering to adjust and affects low iso images too... i spent so much time correcting the green cast but there is something that i can never get right).
    There are green/yellow/orange and purple/blue blotches at high iso.... it happens in tungsten lighting and fluorescent (less so at fluorescent, but still), those green/yellow blotches appear in uniform color areas that are in shadows its like a tint and there is nothing of this sort in e-p1 at iso1600 and even much higher isos have this kind of noise well distributed by all colour channels (they are usually small blotches/spots a little to the irregular round shap but sometimes have big size and very irregular shape).
    I believe its something in the blue channel but in the green channel also!
    Reds and colours at high iso are much more saturated in e-pl1 than in e-p1 (and from imaging-resource samples and dpreview e-pl1 its one of the cameras which has more saturated colours at high iso which sometimes it looks they are clipping channels).
    By the way this is not something just related to these testfiles it happens in almost all high iso files i believe different colour rendereing/demosaic would do much better.
    Here are the raw files, the first one is Olympus e-pl1:
    http://hotfile.com/dl/117408120/41b0f01/P5109784.ORF.html
    The second one is Olympus e-p1:
    http://hotfile.com/dl/117408591/5eab708/P5107466.ORF.html
    Notice in the blue trip Samsonite bag there are much more blue blotches with the chroma noise slider at 0 (even at 25 there is a difference in Dynamic range between e-p1 and e-pl1, when all review sites clearly say that e-pl1 is a little better at high iso even in raw, and its not just because it has more detail that you can use to kill a little grain and make things equal).
    Please dont post or use this photos as examples as they are not flattering... they are just for Adobe engineers or private testing by users not for posting in other forums.
    So Olympus cameras and Panasonic camera sensors all exibiht this problem but i have never seen something like this.... the cameras are quite good at iso1600 except all shadows have that tint even with chroma noise sliders at 40 they never disappear ... is it possible to solve the colour demosaicing and left intact the luminance one?
    Please be kind to m43 cameras since they are selling very well and i think they dont have proper support... ( i bet if this was a problem with Canon or Nikon it would be corrected in a time... we dont have coustum profiles but there is a solution for that... although for this problem we dont have better solution since its too selective and only in shadows).
    By the way in Rawtherapee i have made adjustments in channel mixer (the levels of green that the blue channel has are very high; so i took a little green (and just a tiny bit of red) and the shadow areas start getting rid of the green dots, so here it is a HINT) and there were many improvements almost making them disappear... however i want to use lightroom not rawtherapee with AMAZE demosaicing.
    Oh by the way look at Rawtherapee way of removing colour moiré with AMAze algorithm its fantastic it gives you detail back and no colour moire which shows a lot with e-pl1 in lightroom (but i know its because of lighter AA filter and its not a priority).
    Thanks for your help!

    Well if you search in the middle of the image you will see at 100% that the open bag has those green spots where it should be gray! and near the door at bottom left of the image you will see those green spots that are very distracting because they happen in shadow areas... (and by the way the red cloth is not the same red as the e-p1 image and its noticeable even at small size).
    What white balance did you use?
    I know these are just test shots but they appear in people shots too..
    Im going to prove that ACR interpretation of olympus auto white balance in olympus e-pl1 is just horrenduos with this raw file (by the way i use this one since its one of the ones with less publicity and with the most straight forward uploading, if you know one that is better to upload tell me please).
    http://hotfile.com/dl/117520711/fceaefb/P4248867.ORF.html
    Now try white balance at 2850 and tint at 0 (things improve).
    Now look at the clock.. it has a contour with the wall that is green/yellow its that kind of problem (i have noise reduction in teh color at 50 and in the detail at 25 to try to mitigate its effect but still not much luck).
    Next i will go to the HSL tools in lightroom and select yellow color and select saturation tab and dial in -30 for yellow and voilá! it has reached the kind of performance that i see with e-p1 (a little worse but almost unnoticeable),.. adobe should correct this problem in lightroom 3.5 please.
    then i used the split toning slider and in the shadows i dial in hue at 340 and saturation at 10 and there was a bigger reduction in the yellow spots so its the default rendering that is a mess (by the way sometimes if i reduce saturation in the green and in the blue channel it helps a little too like -30 in each) so try to correct these please, if possible by not dessaturate the channels but with an algorithm that detects only those kinds of spots and not all yellow info like you do in the red channel so well!!
    Thanks

  • Pull random images from iPhoto library folders

    I'm trying to come up with a script to pull random images from my iPhoto library and copy them to another folder that I can then use with another program (GeekTool) to display them on my desktop.
    What I'd like to be able to do is pull 30-50 of these images at a time. I can use GeekTool to call the script at a given interval (eg. every half hour) and have a completely different set of images everytime the script is run.
    I'm a complete obliviot when it comes to applescripting, so I'm at the mercy of the experts. I've managed to find a couple of scripts that can do something similar with the screensaver, but I'm unable to figure out the script enough to make it do what I need.
    Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

  • Choose random image script

    I'm creating a small movie with a set of random images that all appear in the same spot (no horizontal or vertical movement). I want each image to appear onscreen for two seconds, then be replaced by another randomly-chosen image. There are 17 images in the set. Here is the script I'm using:
    on enterFrame
      channel=random(17)
      _movie.delay(2*60)
    on exitFrame
      go to the Frame
    end
    This script works well. However, because the population is small - only 17 - what happens when I run the script is that a little too often it randomly chooses the same image once, twice, sometimes up to five times in a row, which gives the effect that the movie is either stuck or not working properly. I would like to find out how to modify the script so that on exitFrame it chooses randomly any of the other 16 images but not the current image. At first I thought if the script read random(16) or random(17-1) that might work, but it doesn't.
    Any thoughts would be welcome.

    Hi Sean,
    This randomizing project of mine is becoming more complex than I first realized and I now have another question that I hope you might be able to help me with.
    The project breaks down into class, category, group and member. There are 9 classes (and perhaps a possibility in the future that further classes could be added). The structure and naming convention within each class is identical down to the member level. For example, Cat. 1 of Class 2 and Cat 1 of Class 7 both have the same names. Group 3 of Cat. 1 of Class 2 and Group 3 of Cat 1 of Class 6 both have the same names. However, the members of these groups do not have the same names.
    In each class there are 4 categories, each with a different name. Each category contains a number of groups (each group has a different name). Each group contains a number of members. Each member in categories 1 and 2 is a bitmap image. The total number of bitmap members in the project is 21.
    To give a fictionalized example (this project is not about clothing, but I'm using it as an example):
    Class 1 = shirts
    Class 2 = hats
    Class 3 = pants
    Class 4 = socks
    Class 5 = shoes
    etc.
    Category 1 = British
    Category 2 = Japanese
    Category 3 = Turkish
    Category 4 = Brazilian
    Group 1 = Cotton
    Group 2 = Synthetic
    Group 3 = Speed
    Group 4 = Sound
    and so forth.
    In Class 1 (shirts) there are British, Japanese, Turkish and Brazilian shirts and these could be made of either cotton or synthetic. In addition, there are a variety of speeds and sounds from which to choose when displaying the shirts.
    In my project:
    Cat. 1 has 7 groups and each group varies in the number of members with either 7, 14 or 21 (but no other alternative to these numbers).
    Cat. 2 has 13 groups and each group has 7 members.
    Cat. 3 does not randomize images but lets me choose any one of 12 different speeds for randomization in half-second increments.
    Cat. 4 does not randomize images but lets me choose any one of 6 different sounds. Whenever the randomized image changes, this triggers the sound. The sound is not randomized but is consistent once the choice for what KIND of sound has been made. In short: tick, tick,tick, or tock, tock, tock but not tick, tock. It is possible that in the future more sounds could be added.
    Navigation should allow me to start with any of the four categories. For randomization to work, I must choose within either Cat. 1 or Cat. 2 (but not both) and I must make a choice of some sort within Cat. 3 (speed of randomization) while Cat. 4 is entirely optional (sound on or off, but not required to be on and, if it's to be on then choice for which kind of sound).
    There are also an additional two buttons for sound on or off than run the length of the score within any class, meaning that while randomization is occuring anywhere within a class, I can choose to turn the sound on if it's currently off or off if it's currently on. Turning it on while randomization is taking place will also probably require a choice of which kind of sound (meaning a floating window I suppose) so as not to exit the frame where randomization is taking place.
    Now for my question: should I create one massive behaviour script for all classes that includes a series of nested if/else statements for each category, group and member, or should I create 4 large behavior scripts, one for each category with if/else instructions for its groups and members, or should I script at the group level, which will result in 180 separate behaviour scripts for image randomization plus additional scripts for speed and sound?
    Further, I understand how to apply at the group level the script you gave me earlier (and it works beautifully), but if you think it would be more efficient now to work at the category or class level, I'm not sure how to script the if/else statements. I'm assuming that in whichever of these solutions turns out to be best, it is applied to a single sprite which will serve to display the randomly-chosen image. Bear in mind that the script you gave me randomizes the image change every two seconds. Now I'm looking to have a choice of it changing within a range of once every half-second to once every 5 seconds (e.g. 0.5 sceonds, 1 second, 1.5 seconds, 2 seconds, etc.).
    An ancillary question: could this be done a different way? A friend suggested using subroutines but wasn't able to tell me how to do this because he doesn't know anything about Lingo. I was wondering whether the if/then syntax structure is Lingo's way of doing subroutines.
    Your thoughts would be most welcome. If you think you can't help me with this, do you have any suggestions as to where I might turn for help (apart from the nuthouse at this point)?
    Cheers,
    Dallas

  • How do you change the location of a small image within an IMAQ image display?

    I have an image that exactly fills the display. But then I want to extract a portion of the image and display that small piece, but have it be in the same location as it was before, not centered in the display (essentially I want to crop the image but leave it in the same location). I tried the 'Image Center Position' property node for the image display, but is resets itself to the center of the display. Can anyone offer any suggestions?
    Thanks,

    You misused the Image Center position property : it works only on images larger than the display area. Have a look at the simplified version of your sample vi.
    One way to achieve your objective will be to create a black (or white) background image, with the same size as the original image and to paste the small piece over this BG.

  • Why videos have a green cast and poor picture

    All of the sudden videos on my phone have a green cast to them and look like a digital interfearance. It's happening on all videos. Both ones I have taken and ones on you tube. Anyone else have this problem?

    You might have a hardware issue, the display might be damaged/going bad. I would try quitting All Apps and then restart the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad.
