During my last CD album uploads I have noticed that the colours of the images change after being uploaded. The colours look quite fine in the preview, but when the images get published they appear in a much duller colour, e.g. if my original looks something like this, it appears like this. Why is this? What steals my colours? Can I have them back, please?

I've not seen this problem before. The only thing I can think is if your computer/monitor has an extended colorspace such as Adobe RGB or P3. All images on the website are in the standard sRGB colorspace.

If it has something to do with the colorspace, the preview would also appear in a duller colour, wouldn't it? The red colour is especially affected, looks truly red in the original and in the preview, but in the uploaded image it appears almost brown.

Concaveman if you are using photoshop or gimp you should be able change the image type to srgb before exporting your images to file?

I believe I have solved the issue by changing the output color space to sRGB on my scanner software. Looks OK now :thumbsup:
