Mar 30, 2009 15:06 | #1 So i am sure this is asked alot here but I am making another thread so I can make sure its clear to myself lol. So I converted the color profile to sRGB IEC61966-2.1 but when I save it as a jpeg the image turns out flat and looks washed out. Also I am saving at the highest quality "12". I am using cs3 and my screen is not calibrated but the raw vs jpeg still looks alot different. What am I doing wrong? The Gear:

Also, what software are you using to view the finished jpegs, when you say they look "flat and washed out"? Well I am saving it as a jpeg after opening it up the raw in photoshop and I was just using the windows picture viewer...I am guess these are both wrong lol The Gear:

I have found that doing that route, doesn't seem to work as far as showing correct colors on the monitor. Depends on how you set Save for web to show the images: It has an option to give a color managed preview or a non color managed preview. lbcyalater wrote in post #7638928 ok so if I print these then it will post likely come out looking the the raw one correct? If you print it correct, yes. lbcyalater wrote in post #7639136 not a fancy pic but still looks pretty washed out. also does photobucket downgrade them as well? Here's your problem:  So I guess you're not converting to sRGB. AdobeRGB images will look flat in a non color managed application. Have a read in the link from my sig.
