This is just a test of ImageShack and Photobucket image color..

On my moniter they look the same, no difference

I agree.

For the record, this is the first time I have peeped at somebody else's pixels.

Post #18- enlarged 400%, the bottom photo appears to have better quality.

Interesting that these two hosting sites have not been pitted against each other before here.
Thanks.

I agree.

They don't look the same on my monitor at all.

Mine either, Lance.

In the smaller image (photobucket?) the image has less contrast and or less saturation. There is also a loss of detail as you can see by looking at the tiny hairs on the stem. The detail loss may only be a result of the loss of contrast.
When the contrast is lowered it in effect takes away the quality of the light captured in the photo so it looks dull compared to the original.

I think you are on the money there Lance. On my monitor the photobucket photo looks flat in comparison. The ImageShack photo really pops out at you, just like the original.

I've seen enough to convince me to move over to ImageShack. I also like the fact that it doesn't resize the photo as well.

This is just another test following Dot's advise using ImageShack. The flower is Ida ciliata.

Mine either, Lance.

Mine either but it does make me wish I had the 2 monitor system that all our bosses are getting now!

What one monitor for work and one for orchids?

What is your conclusion?

Hello Dot,

Your procedure works well. I will follow it. Thanks you.

I do think that I get truer color with ImageShack but the great differences I was seeing to begin with were due to the fact that I was following two different procedures with the two programs. When I was depending more on Photobucket to prepare my images for transfer to the forum, it was loosing a lot of information. Now, when I follow your procedure and give Photobucket a photo it does not need to modify much, the results are fine.

Sounds like a plan!
