There's your problem. You're viewing your images first in a color-managed application like Photoshop and then after emailing in a non-color-managed application. If you put any images you intend for electronic display (as opposed to print) into sRGB color space they'll look very similar regardless of whether the viewing app is color managed or not. -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
