Title: Color Space question
Post by: illstudio on October 07, 2009, 15:59

Im 3 months new to this so...

Ive been working in CS4 (Tiff/ 16 bit) with a color space of Adobe RGB 1998. Ive
been told to assign a Color Space of sRGB when finished and uploading.
I only see "Working RGB: sRGB IEC61966-2.1", so I assume thats it...?

When I do convert to this Color Space by images loose heir RED punch! What am I
doing wrong?

I would assign the Color Setting of sRGB to begin with for your workspace, then you won't have to remember to convert when saving to jpeg. Adobe RGB is a PRINT setting. sRGB is a WEB setting.

Boy does it look bad drab and dull when I convert to sRGB. I know the difference...
