Image Brightness / Color profiles in photoshop


Recommended Posts

Well, basically I've been editing saved images from Gran Turismo 4 in Photoshop, yet they are much brighter/clearer/different in photoshop compared to the saved file. Seems that no matter what I do, the image will not save the same way it looks in photoshop for whatever reason, and comes out significantly darker. I took a screenshot and edited it in paint so you can see the difference. Anyone know how to fix this?

To answer your question; or better said to help you out on the way; you got the RGB Profiles altered or something. You can have a look at them when you click on "Edit" and then Color Settings (I have the german version, so I guess it it's something like that)

 

Hope this helps a bit.

I've already messed around with it a lot. I just want it to save the same way it looks confused.gif

Go to view > proof setup and check windows RGB, or Macintosh RGB, etc. It'll change into the actual color/brightness of your image which is what it will look like when viewed in the corresponding OS. Do this at beginning so you'll see it as you work. If you see it as darker then that's how it'll look. All you have to do now is compensate by adjusting the image before saving. Edited by tagamaynila

What do you mean by "compensate"? Sorry, but I'm just starting to learn this thing... blush.gif

 

In the mean time, I changed Photoshop settings to match my monitor's, but I don't think this is the "right" way...

Compensate means to like balance or counter out. It's not a graphics term.

 

What he is trying to say is, brighten the image before you save it. So when it saves, it won't be as dark.

I'll do the opposite as my images look pale when saved, not dark... notify.gif

 

Thanks for the info. smile.gif
