We Now Convert Adobe RGB and Prophoto RGB on Upload
We’ve written about Prophoto RGB and sRGB vs aRGB on many occasions. This is not a debate about one color space or another - but for display on SmugMug and printing at our lab, your photos must be in sRGB color space. For most of you, this is not an issue, you are aware and either you shoot and process in sRGB or your final step is a conversion to sRGB. Cool. But for some folks, unaware, they’d upload Adobe RGB or Prophoto RGB files and the prints would be the YUCK!. No worries, though, becuase The SmugMug Guarantee covers you and your customer for reprints. And convert color space, color correct, and reprint I did
Well, no more! Now, if we see Adobe RGB or Prophoto RGB files on upload, we automatically convert them on our end to sRGB. You need to know this, because this is one only times when we’ll actually change your original uploaded file. But your prints, and your customers, will thank you.
