Save for Web

[Arjay418]

Hi everyone.

I developed an image in Photoshop, saved it to my root folder in Golive and tried to drag it onto my webpage (making it a Smart Object). Golive begins the process of saving the file for web. The problem comes now.

The optimized version that Golive (Imageready?) prepares for me has lost most of it's color. The original Photoshop image was rich with colors and textures. The one that Golive creates in its "Save for Web" dialog is dull and the dark colors from the original are much lighter.

I returned to Photoshop to try its "Save for Web" option and it did the same thing at first. But I clicked on the little right-facing arrow at the top right corner of the preview window and noticed that "Uncompensated color" was checked. I changed that to "Standard Windows color" and the original image returned--full color. Unfortunately, Golive's "Save for Web" dialog does not have those same options.

It seems that there is some kind of preference that I'm not checking that's making Golive's "save for Web" use uncompensated color (whatever that is).

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
RJ

Don't make it a Smart Object.

If you have already optimized it in PhotoShop, then just insert it from the Objects pallete as an Image.

Then it won't try to optimize it again for you.
