Over Saturated Reds after upload- Screenshot Inside

S-Man

So I uploaded a Senior Portraits gallery to my smugmug, and after uploading, I noticed the reds and skin tones are over saturated. In the screenshot included here, you can see the gallery pic on the right and the opened file on the left.
I'd hate to have to change the color on each file, then have to change it back when they go to print, or at the minimum make two different copies of each image.
I haven't noticed this in other galleries, so does anyone know what might be going on? Thanks in advance!

Andy

Can I have a link to that photo exactly please?

Here you go.

Check your color management settings in your browser...

FWIW, she's really, really red. How to tell? Use photoshop, and the eyedropper tool (which will never lie to you) and you can see that the color values in her skin show much much more magenta than yellow. Our help page: http://www.smugmug.com/help/skin-tone and how to correct? A great method: http://www.smugmug.com/help/red-skin-tones

Thanks Andy.
The images do have more Magenta than Yellow in them. I wonder if it's a bi-product of using Alien Bees outside. I've read they have inconsistent color temperatures and give a Magenta color cast sometimes. I'm curious though why they look more red after upload. Maybe it's Firefox contributing to it also. Safari looks much better. I don't know how to check color options in FF. I'll do some research on that.
Thanks for your time.

One more thing, why aren't my watermarks showing in the gallery? They usually show up within the hour of uploading.
Could you check on that for me please? Thanky!

Thanks Andy. It usually applies it when I select the option in "Gallery Settings".

Hi Sam,
The watermarking setting in the gallery settings applies to future uploads. To watermark exiting photos in a gallery, use the Tools button > many photos > more > watermarking tool that Andy suggested.
