  jpg photos darker in other photo viewers

  Posted by Jim Prisby on June 3, 2011 at 5:48 am

  I have a problem I can’t resolve. When I have my photo adjusted in Photoshop to look just the way I want it to look I then save it with “Save For Web and Devices” to jpgs. However, when I look at it in other viewers such as Irfanview or Microsoft photo gallery or Sony Vegas Pro it looks darker and has more contrast then when I view it again in Photoshop. I then have to go back into Photoshop and brighten and reduce the contrast of the original adjusted photo and resave as a jpg to try to make it look correct in those other viewers. I have to go back and forth until I get it to look as it did originally in Photoshop. I know some setting is wrong somewhere in Photoshop and have tried several settings but can’t seem to fix this problem. My color settings and jpg settings are shown below. Please help.

  for your RGB color settings try sRGB instead of Adobe RGB 1998
