[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 364311, member: 13090"] Exactly... And just to restate my problem, and I swear I'm not making this up, sometimes the adjustments I've made in Photoshop do not show up in photos when I post them online. In short: Photo looks awesome in Photoshop but the picture looks looks "flat" when viewed in Firefox. By "flat" I meaning colors do not have the same saturation they do when viewed in Photoshop and the contrast seems lower (in the posted photo). Corrections such as clone stamping and spot removal would be evident in the online photo, but the color and contrast adjustments were clearly NOT visible. My thinking was my files were being opened in aRGB by Adobe Camera RAW by default, being passed to Photoshop using aRGB and were then saved as JPG using aRGB. Since monitors use the sRGB color space I was thinking this was why the images looked flat when viewed in Firefox. I've since reset Adobe Camera RAW to use the sRGB color space by default. However, I tested things just now with RAW photos I have on hand. I opened the same RAW file (via Adobe Camera RAW) in aRGB and then again using sRGB. Both times I saved the RAW file as a JPG with no processing and then I saved the RAW file to JPG after applying +60 Saturation and +50 Contrast. Problem is I'm [B]NOT[/B] seeing the same flattening of the image; they look exactly the same when viewed in Firefox.... Which is making me a little nutty. I'm not done with this yet; I really want to figure out what it was I was doing that made the image look flat in Firefox and see if I can repeat the effect consistently.
