Photo Seller – issue with color of image when click on thumbnail

[elementsinfocus]

Hi, I tried many different templates and they all end up with the same issue, so for now I’m using the gallery template 6 and I don’t think the issue is template specific. I have turned off the photo details page. The color and tone quality of the image on the thumbnail are very close to what they look like when viewing the image in a photo viewer. However, when you click on the image and WP Photo Seller brings up the details as a new larger image, the colors are off. This is very noticeable with wood. Here is an example. This is one of my galleries. Look at the STOVE image, #52.

The color space is sRGB. I’d read that if it was Adobe RGB that could cause an issue.

Is there a fix to make the colors look like they do in the thumbnail and the actual image itself?

Thank you.

Can you try a test by uploading an image using the standard uploader from the wordpress “Media” menu and then view that photo from the front end. Does the colour change?

Not sure if you’ll be able to see this, but here is the image when viewing from the media library: [http://virtuetheme.brandwithwordpress.com/?attachment_id=723] The color is the same as it is when looking at it elsewhere. It looks like the only place it’s different is in Photoseller.

I suspect that the watermarking function may be causing the slight colour change.

I will investigate our code further to find out more.

Thank you. It’s not all images, yet all have the watermark. I have to launch this week so any help will be much appreciated.

elementsinfocus,

just in case it helps, I have open about a dozen of images and all of them look fine in the details page.

(using Chrome under Windows 7)

Thank you Carlos and thank you Peter. It was only certain images and we found the problem. The images saved as Adobe RGB were the ones with issues. Only some of my Real Estate images were saved this way. I’ve since deleted them all, fixed them and re-uploaded. So far it looks good!

Now if I can get the Album Thumbnail size to be just a bit larger everything would be perfect! :o)
