Anyone know anything about setting up color profiles? I ask because I'm tired of my colors changing when I save them in photoshop.

I messed with it for a couple hours last night and couldn't get it working, I switched my color profiles in my camera, in my import prg, my viewing prg, photoshop and camera raw, even tried my monitor and a plugin for firefox.

Nothing helped so there is something I'm missing, if anyone has any advice or could point me to a tutorial or something that would be awesome, thanks.

I hope that was a joke and that you think more of me then that, like I really wouldn't have searched google before asking my question here. I asked my question here in the hopes of getting more personalized help aswell as advice from people I know can be trusted to give out good tips.

 

When, exactly, are you getting a change in colours? I have my camera set up to do Adobe RGB, and I have my monitor profile set to my Spyder profile. Before you save and upload to the web you need to do Image -> Convert Profile (not apply!) -> sRGB.

The sRGB comes into play because there's no standards for web browsers to read color profiles from images - they blindly apply sRGB which causes AdobeRGB images to come out dull/unsaturated.

 

Ok ill look into that when I get home aswell as try and get some screenshots posted so you can see what's going on.

 

You can also "Save for Web and Devices..." and just do the highest jpeg with metadata still imbedded. Essentially the same as above, but all as one step.

I have the same problem for a while, flickr didnt understand the AdobeRGB profile so it just defaulted to sRBG and everything looked shitty.

 

But when you convert it to sRGB it switches the colors around so whats the point of editing it in AdobeRBG if it's not gonna come out the same in the end?

 

All I want is to be able to edit an image and have it stay the same after I save and upload it, so far I've messed with AdobeRGB, sRGB, and prophotoRBG all with no luck of getting my saved image to match my edited image. Could this problem be due to my new screen calibrator?

 

I think it changes the color profile to match the colors you have instead of changing the colors to match the profile (when you do it in photoshop), but if you do the Save for Web and Devices, it'll come out right in the end.

 

I have everything set to sRGB right now and when I save it the colors still change.
