p.1 #1 · JPGs are warmer than actual file?

Hi Guys,

I'm not sure if I'm imagining this or not, but it looks like my exported JPGs are warmer than the actual photoshop working space that I edit the photos in.

I have tried both save for web & and save as, and they both look warmer.

Any reason for this?

Thanks.

-Steve

You are probably using the wrong viewing profile in photoshop. Go to View proof setup and try "monitor" in that does not work try custom and change the settings there until the photo in photoshop looks the same as the finished jpg.

How did you set the parameters for your jpegs? Some of the picture styles for Canon look warmer than others.

Visitor2004 - Thank you, you got it. That's exactly the problem. I changed it to Monitor RGB and it looks very warm (like the saved jpg). Ok, so now which space should I use?

I guess - Monitor RGB when i'm editing for my site & blog, because that's how most other users will see the image?
