Has anyone else noticed that photos you have submitted are darker and the color is a little off. I went to attach a file and it is off. I'll attach it and maybe someone could tell me if it looks dark. It is a picture of bright red cherries and when i look at it here it almost looks brownish. The leaves are off color also. I just used spyder on my monitor 2 weeks ago.

I see what you see in your photo, but I have not noticed the same desaturation in what I have posted.However, you did not upload, attach, and store the original, so it is hard to tell. How about showing us the original. If you are downsizing a jpeg, that may be the problem.

Do you see now that the download is much closer to the color you describe? This is a common problem where the thumbnails do not capture the colors and detail of your post.

I don't see the download except in the one in my comment back to you. I must be cracking up.

The thumbnail version does look brown (the embed to the UHH page), but the download version is fine. The EXIF data reports auto WB from your D7200.

so how do you know when you post something and attach a photo that it will look right?

Save it as sRGB and re-post it.

If you don't want the image compressed, shorten the long-side to 600-pixels or less. When the site doesn't compress the image, nothing unexpected occurs.

Well, you could just trust the experience of everyone else, or you could click on download in your post and see what it looks like.

Because the first image did not have Store Original selected.

You'll also notice that many posters will state something like: Please look at the download, it's much better.
It usually is. It has to do with the algorithm that creates the thumbnail.
