Color Management in Firefox

Firefox disables color management by default. This means it won’t honor a color profile embedded in a digital image – which annoys photographers who post pictures online to no end.

Here’s how to fix it; in Firefox’s addressbar, type in: about:config

Then search/scroll the list of options till you see the following option:

gfx.color_management.enabled         user set        boolean      false

Double click on it to toggle its state to true then restart Firefox 😉

There you have it OSX users, no more reason to stick with Safari for the sole purpose of “proper color management”

This will be a long post, but I can say with a certain degree of confidence that the information here can be very useful should it be applicable to you.

Some foxy lovin’

Still there’s still roughly half that are still using IE, and given Firefox 3 is out, it doesn’t hurt to spread the word. Read More

Browsers, etc.

I felt compelled to post this as Nono mentioned me in his recent post… which could lead people to misinterpret some stuff.

What I said was correct though, so no change is necessary in his entry, but I just had to qualify something I had said, something which I think may be interpreted wrongly by those who don’t know (or be slammed by those who do hahahaha). Also, to reiterate what I posted as a comment.
