IE Color

[Kiernan]

This may be a pretty simple fix, but I'm a loss right now.

All of my images when viewed with Internet Explorer display very washed out and cool. When viewed with PS or any editing program, they're much more vibrant and expressive. Maybe my color mode is incorrect for posting to the web?

HELP!

Make sure your images are in sRgb mode before you view them in IE. It could be that your images are in Adobe RGB, which to put simply is better but incompatible with sRgb.

Can I change them after they're JPGs? I don't save my RAW files after I've converted to JPG. I know I should...I just don't.

1. Open the image with PSCS.
2. Convert to the sRGB color space (Image > Mode > Convert to Profile...)
3. Save for the web.

Worked! Thanks!

Things like this is why you save your RAWs. Even if you only save the top 10% of them that's better than nothing. Come back in a few years with better software and more experience, and your good photos might turn into great photos.
