[thelist] Photoshop > Colour washout on 'save for web': SOLVED

[Paul Bennett]

I managed to log in as local admin and run adobe gamma. For some reason it wasn't appearing in my control panel.

Colour is still not great but at least its consistent between working view and 'save for web'.

Big thanks to all who helped :)

Paul,

I forgot something that may be of some importance (before you actually change to fireworks… ;-) ):

Depending on the source of your image, it may come already with a profile, and there may be a mismatch between the image’s profile and the profile you’ve set for web. So, it may be a good idea to assign the sRGB
IEC61966-2.1 color profile to the image (menu image / mode / assign
profile) before you begin working on it, or to convert it to this profile (menu image / mode / convert to profile) if you’ve already worked on it.

Also, I presumed, maybe wrongly, that you were working on windows… In Mac, the Adobe Gamma is substituted by Monitor Calibrator and you may not want to delete it…

All these indications were targeted to Photoshop CS. If you are using other version, let me know.

You have some interesting information that may help you on Photoshop CS
help: press F1 and select Producing Consistent Color in the left menu.

Roberto
