Posting some photo's from the Tilburg meeting I noticed that the images after upload to the forum lose some saturation.

Here's a test:

Direct uploading to LUF:

Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here…

Uploading the exact same image (same file) via the "other media" button from my smugmug:

I see the second image with more vivid colours, the base file is the same (and in sRGB colour space).

So my questions are:

- Do you see the same thing and

- Do you know what's causing this?

I do see a difference as well, but it is not something that I experience.  Maybe your browser? I mainly use Chrome and Firefox.

Thanks for the comment Jaap. I also had a PM discussion with Albert and he also doesn't experience this problem when he uploads (just like you), so it seems to be something specific to my computer or internet set-up but I haven't figured out yet why.

I also mainly use Firefox and also tested Edge and both show the same effect of "colour loss" when I upload directly to LFI. Uploading to other sites all goes without a colour loss.

Haven't tried Chrome yet but that will be my next step. After that I'm ging to try another computer and see what that gives.

Things can be weird - You can use Firefox in developer mode and check if there are any scripts in red - although I wouldn't know what to do in that case.
