I'm now SURE that Flickr does something with the contrast/colours of my images when I upload them.

I just did a quick search before posting but can't see another topic like this. You guys must have noticed?

Here's an image I saved to Flickr:

3779632508_481349d2e3.jpg


Now, at home that image is actually red. Not orange. The file at home is a JPEG and the one I uploaded is a JPEG. Both 8bit.

I've checked to see if it was my browser causing this, same in Firefox and IE. If I save that file to my desktop and look at it, then it's red. But on Flickr it's orange. I'm confused...
 
Right. I had a look at your EXIF. I think the problem is that you are saving your images as Adobe RGB before uploading to Flickr. Try saving as sRGB and you will find the representation is closer.

Exactly as above.

When I used to upload my pics looked washed out until I changed to sRGB.
 
So using AdobeRGB (1998) for flicker is bad?

I've used this all the time, might have to check sRBG out and see how different it is.

Thanks guy's.
