wingzero2309 Posted August 7, 2008 CID Share Posted August 7, 2008 I just got a new computer a few months back with Vista on it and I've noticed that there's an image distortion problem Basically, anything image i look at in the standard windows picture viewer shows up with the wrong colors. I opened up Photoshop and it seems like I have the same problem with that as well. However, when I open up that same exact image in Paint, it looks fine. Here's a picture of the problem: Any idea what's up with this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coknuck Posted August 7, 2008 CID Share Posted August 7, 2008 I don't know whats wrong but there is definitely a color difference! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlewis23 Posted August 7, 2008 CID Share Posted August 7, 2008 Windows photo gallery is quite wrong. The font is really blurry too. Can you show just photoshop and MS Pain next to each other? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingzero2309 Posted August 8, 2008 Author CID Share Posted August 8, 2008 Yup, here's MS Paint next to Photoshop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlewis23 Posted August 8, 2008 CID Share Posted August 8, 2008 Photoshop looks correct. Paint has too much yellow/orange in it for some reason. If you think photoshop is wrong go into the preferences for photoshop and change the color picker. But the default adobe profile is better then the MS one.

wingzero2309 Posted August 8, 2008 Author CID Share Posted August 8, 2008 I checked on another computer with that same image too though, and it looks like how it does on paint on my other computer, on Windows Photo Gallery and Photoshop all the images look like they're too dark or something, it's driving me nuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingzero2309 Posted August 19, 2008 Author CID Share Posted August 19, 2008 I finally found a fix to this problem, it's apparently some "color profile" issue. http://blog.critical-web.com/blog/index.cfm/2008/4/21/Photoshop-And-Color-Profiles Everything looks good now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
