The pic shown when I click on my submission looks different to what I see opening the jpg by itself in Internet Explorer. Looks like the contrast has been turned up on it ...
Anyone else have the same problem? |

I have noticed a distinct shift in the color of my submitted photo, and I compared it side by side with the one in Photoshop. Try as I might, I can not get it to look the same, so I finally gave up. This after unsubmitting and re-submitting it 7 times. |

You need to convert it to a web safe color space, typically sRGB. You can do this with the 'convert to profile' option in Photoshop.
This site has lots of details if you want more info.
Hope that is helpful.

Is that the same thing as "Save for Web" option in PS ?

I had a particularly difficult time using 'save for web' on my photograph in the transitions challenge. I had to abandon that and use the normal save. The loss was too great for my particular photo using 'save for web'...
Be sure to closely examine any possible differences when you use this...

| My submissions all look out of focus. When I view them before sending and even print at 8x10 they look great. What is happening? |

I promise we're not touching your photos :)

Resampling should be your choice.... Resampling actually changes the resolution....

hmmm ... that was a bit too much for me (especially on a Friday afternoon). I'll have to go home and try the convert to profile on Photoshop LE (yeah that's all I got)

Found a Image > Mode > Indexed Color option from the menus in PS 5.0LE, but changing the palette to Web doesn't work - the photo just looks really bad.
Is there something I can do in Photoshop LE?
My submission doesn't look quite as bad on my laptop compared to the work PC and I've made monitor calibrations on both ... what's going on? How do I tell which one is right? What are other people going see when they view it? |

Woh! Indexed mode is what you use to bring the image down to 256 colors from whatever color depth your image was in. This is traditionally done on the web for gif images.
If you saw reference to a "web pallette" there, it is what is called the web safe pallette. This pallette contains all the colors that are safely assumable to be visible in all browsers. It is based on the intersection of MAC system colors, PC system colors, as well as base IE and Netscape colors.
You should only use this for non photographic images used on the web. tumbnail product shots, toolbars, and anything that you want to be guaranteed to look as you see it on someone who's monitor is set to only 256 colors.
Most web designers now for gifs use indexed mode and the adaptive pallette. This pallette choice picks the 256 most often used pixels of color and makes a custom palette for the indexed image. Since the majority of the browsing public now has more than 256 colors set by default, teh web safe pallete is becoming a thing of the past.
Since jpgs at small sizes leave artifacts in the image, gifs are often used for aritstic web graphics. Smaller size, but limited color depth. It's a bit of a trade off.
If anyone is interested, I can make this into more of a tutorial with better wording and some graphical examples. Just reply here to let me know. |
