combining color adjustment on smugmug and from EZ Prints

weronika

Quick question about photo color adjustment. There are two different features for that - I can adjust my colors on smugmug (as well as make them BW, do the tanning salon thing, etc.), and then I can set the color adjustment to auto (as opposed to true color) when ordering prints.
Given that I don't adjust my photos myself unless there's something seriously wrong with them, what will give me the best prints?
a) not using smugmug color adjustment, and ordering auto color prints
b) using smugmug color adjustment and ordering true color prints
c) using smugmug color adjustment and ordering auto color prints

Hi, thanks for posting it's an excellent question. For your purposes, a) is the best choice. More here:

Prints - Auto vs. True

Hope this helps!

Thanks!
I already read the Auto vs. True info - I just wasn't sure whether applying smugmug autoadjust before i2e would be good or bad (so option b was only there for completeness). I guess the answer is: bad.

Yeah, no matter what - auto X auto = :nah
