Tutorials

Ever find yourself wondering just how someone managed to create an image using different effects?

Here are three simple tutorials we hope will encourage you to try something new.

The Hot Seat

A lifelong interest in landscape photography has led Eyal Oren to make a study of his adopted hometown of Marblehead, MA. As you can see, his dedication is paying off!

Africa!

Dgrinners Harryb, Pathfinder, and others joined Andy Williams and Marc Muench on Safari in East Africa recently. Here are some awesome threads to check out!

Photo Colors Rendering Wrong
One more proble, im noticing now. Ive taken all color calibration software off, and My screen is showing things how they were before, so it looks ok. However the problem lies in the below examples. the image has been exported directly to Smugmug from lightroom. In IE, both examples look fine. In Flock, both fine. In firefox 3.5, the first one looks desaturated and the second looks normal to me. Both are the same picture, just different sizes?

Smugmug currently has a problem where they are not including color profiles on all sizes. They say it has been fixed internally, but I've not heard that the fix has gone live yet. Different colors on different sizes would be because of this problem of theirs.

I've got the same problem with Firefox 3.5+

Many of my photos appear as if they've had sepia and darkening (but not in the thumbnails) in Firefox 3.5, but not in IE or earlier Firefox versions. I'm very worried that potential customers are seeing these supersaturated photos instead of what's really there. If I download any of them, even with Firefox 3.5, and preview in file explorer, they look fine, so it's obviously something to do with how FF 3.5 is rendering those images for viewing.

This is not the same issue, I'm sorry. FF 3.5 is 'color aware' and is displaying the images properly. Tell us your workflow, and also give us an example image that is showing this issue to you, we'll help!

Thanks. Sorry about confusing the issues. I was just trying to find a pre-existing thread that might be what my problem is.

Here we go:

As of a few weeks ago, images that I have uploaded or replaced (e.g., edited with Picnik), or even moved have been displayed as dark/sepia while the thumbnails are fine, and if I download the image, it's fine. I noticed that this was happening only on Firefox 3.5 or higher (works fine on IE, earlier Firefox versions). I cleared cache and all that, and even tried a clean installation of Firefox, getting same results.

Here is an example:
http://victorwilliamson.smugmug.com/...00503322_8QXEY

Every image in that portfolio gallery is doing the same thing in Firefox 3.5 -- displaying the image in dark/sepia (not actual sepia, but that's what it resembles). If you download the image (I'm assuming, Andy, that you can do a save on the image?), you should see the image properly.

For comparisons, the first upload of that same photo (weeks ago) is just fine:

http://victorwilliamson.smugmug.com/...87997104_iRAk5

I've done nothing to them other than doing an owner save on the latter, and then uploading it to a portfolio directory. Other photos have been affected just from edit/replacing with picnik.

Let me know what other information I can share with you, and thank you so much for helping with this.

I have the same problem with rendering the images....they appear over saturated and contrasty in the preview size, while the thumbs and original size, and MOST of the X2 images are correct. Slideshow is the best way to view all images correctly (X2 Large size). This occurs only on Firefox, IE images display properly.

This just occurred with todays upload, app 30 minutes ago.
