I have photoshop CS2 and just recently when i edit some pictures taken from my nikon D200, when i am done doing some udjustments and save the file in TIFF format and when i re-open that image in a different program just to vew it like irfranvew the image looks flat and desaturated. But if i open it up in photoshop again it looks good and vibrant.

here are my color settings becuase i think that might have something to do with this.

SETTINGS: Custom
RGB: sRGB IEC61966-2.1
CMYK: U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2
GRAY: Gray Gamma 2.2
SPOT: Dot Grain 20%

and the (color management Policies)
are all set to "Preserve Embedded Profiles".

I dont know what any of that stuff means so if theres something I need to change there then please let me know.

Thanks!

Am out of my league here, but did read in a post not too long ago that Adobe uses a "managed" color profile, that other browsers don’t. Do some searches and you might get the real scoop.

This has to do with the color-profile that irfanview use. Go to preference and choose the same color-prfile you use in CS2

Do a forum search for monitor color, color mismatch, or color management. You need to calibrate and profile your monitor.

Mark,

eventually your camera uses AdobeRGB(1998) and
this profile is embedded. Arbitrary browsers
assign sRGB, which leads to wrong appearance.

You should proceed as follows:
In case of profile mismatch convert to workingspace
(sRGB).
For new photos you can set your camera workingspace
to sRGB.
For SOME photos it’s better to base everything on
AdobeRGB(1998).

Correction (IMO): Arbitrary browsers are
sending the data unchanged to the monitor.
If this is calibrated similar to sRGB, then
it looks like an assignment of sRGB.
