There's a big can of worms you're opening here, with a potential for discussion of monitor profiling vs calibration (they're two different things, though you're probably doing both), color spaces, browser image rendering and ICC profile awareness. It's a jungle in there. So, before anything else... Can you point me at an example of one of your images (the same file) looking different on several different sites? If you're putting your images into sRGB color space, there shouldn't be much difference between having color management on or off (that's why the sRGB color space was designed). -- 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.
