I have a picture of some ausome bright orange fall leaves with a Adobe RGB profile. Once I switch the profile to sRGB to put it on the web, the colors desaturate like crazy.

Is it true that broswers only look at pictures with the colors found in sRGB?

Is there anything I can do to get the oranges to show, or is this just something everyone has to deal with when it comes to getting pictures on the internet?
 
If you are using photoshop use the "convert profile" under the edit menu.
Do not use the "assign profile"

I assigned the "Ctrl+Alt+Shift+A" shortcut for the last convertion from aRGB to sRGB in the Photoshop, as the web brower only support sRGB mode.
 
What method are you using to convert the image? Perceptual? Relative Colorimetric?

I find using Relative Colorimetric with Black point compensation turned on, and using the Adobe ACE engine, tends to give the more accurate translation - but sometimes, I'll use perceptual if I'm seeing a shift I didn't expect.

Oranges are hard - but shouldn't desaturate too drastically.
 
I am using photoshop.

My question is, how can I make the colors of a jpeg with AdobeRGB or ProRGB look the same when it is converted to sRGB. My colors are desaturating dramatically because the picture has lots of reds and oranges.

Why isn't there a way for Photoshop to convert it for you and keep the colors the same, so I dont have spend and hour trying to Soft-Proof it?
 
Well -

1. You didn't answer my questions - which are relevant to your complaint.

2. Because there are no easy answers. There are too many variables in play.

3. This isn't supposed to be easy - that's why we spend decades getting good at it. If it was easy, our clients wouldn't need to pay us - they'd do it themselves.

Wow. Thank You.

I was in Assign to Profile.

No Convert to Profile.
