I’m in the process of re-uploading some of the photos that I’ve added to Flickr recently. I’ve discovered that they look very desaturated in Firefox (2). It’s a long story, but basically when you export photos from Aperture, you need to make sure that the ColorSync profile is set to sRGB.

Firefox (and IE) doesn’t recognise any other colour profile and displays them incorrectly. Safari, on the other hand, does. Pain in the arse.

Anyway, when I get a chance I’ll try to upload a picture that demonstrates the problem.

I should have posted this earlier but between work and babies I’ve been up to my jocks in it today. April 22nd is, of course, Flood’s birthday. This year is a bit more though – it’s his 30th birthday. Yeah yeah, he’s an old git and so on – problem is, I’ll be thirty soon as well.

Happy Birthday G!
