picture of my friend that I uploaded to my web address:

exact same picture uploaded to pbase

http://www.pbase.com/chriscupp/image/38429759/original

is it me or is the image totally changed? It seems the color has totally shifted and I hate the image on pbase...

please correct me if I am wrong. I haven't calibrated my monitor in a couple of months so maybe it's off??

just curious.

On my system, the two pics look almost identical in colour and sharpness.

It might just be the time of night, but....

I see a slight blue cast on the PBase image as well as a slight darkening of the image (especially noticable in the wispy hairs). Loss of sharpness in the eyelashes as well.

chriscupp · Jan 8, 2005

awesome, I'm not going insane!!

I noticed a HUGE difference in the shots, but I think it's because I know the girl and I know her skin tones. The pbase was totally different than my RAW image.
Glad i'm not crazy

Thanks for posting everyone.

You may still be, but if you noticed the same stuff I did (and not a red shift), this isn't a manefestation of your insanity.

geraldogarcia · Jan 8, 2005

Hi!

I saved both images and set my image viewer to alternate both on an interval of 10 seconds, full screen.

Showed to some friends and NO ONE could see the difference, in fact we could not notice the swap iself, only the name changing below the image.

Thanks for posting everyone.

I just saved the two images to my hard drive and ran md5sum over it (a relatively cryptographically strong hash, commonly used for testing file integrity). The two files have identical hash values, so I would say that its your eyes. I thought I could see a difference at first (the pbase image looked darker) but looking again I think it is a trick of the brain where the sites had slightly different colour schemes / borders etc. When you posted the comparison of the 2 images together I could no longer tell the difference.

"diff" and various other file checkers return that the files are bit wise identical.

md5sums:

I saved both images onto my computer. The one from your computer has an embedded color profile (Adobe) in it which isn't there on the pBase one. When you put it on pbase, you probably used save for web, which killed the embedded color profile.

The Adobe file is much more lifelike.

Aurorax0 · Jan 8, 2005

Not sure why they have the md5sum, but wouldn't different sized files generally not produce the same checksum number?

The jessica.jpg file was 96kb and the 38429759.jessica.jpg was 40kb.

You need to convert to sRGB for web viewing.

We were comparing it to a picture using the Adobe color space.
