[QUOTE="Carroll, post: 75801, member: 9246"] Well, and I hope the following makes sense. I edited my previous post 3 times! ;) Jeff, here is what happened: I transmitted a file to Walgreens, and had a photo printed. It looked like crap. I have had quite a few (lots of robberies) printed at Walgreens, previous to this, and they came out just as I had post processed them. These files were used in Paint Shop Pro X4, Corel After Shot Pro, and Capture NX2. I had some printed when they still used a "wet" lab here, and had some printed after they changed to a "dry" lab. All OK. When I transmitted my first file using Photoshop CS6, the color was off. Very "muted" and noticeable. I found out that Photoshop used Adobe RGB in the file that I had transmitted to Walgreens. I changed the color space to sRGB in that file, re-transmitted it to Walgreens, and the picture was as I wanted. I suppose that I had not paid enough attention to the preferences in Photoshop....or read the instructions!!!!!!LOL I agree that Walgreens AND Walmart are "crooks" because they hold up you and I when we choose to enter their doors. However, when I am learning how to post process for print, I like to look at my mistakes as quickly as I can, and typically, Walgreens holds me up in about 30 minutes from the time I transmit. I guess I like a quick shakedown! LOL Don't know what else to say... Carroll [/QUOTE]
