I spend time to make sure my photos' colors are as correct as possible but then I post them here and something seems wrong. I just noticed that the same photo posted on livingreefs using an html link looks different than looking at the link directly.
Here's what I'm talking about...
Click this link so it opens up in a new window.

Then click this link so it too opens up in a new window.

Look at the two identical images side by side.
For me, in two different browsers (safari and firefox) the image posted in the LR thread is much more saturated and more red than the image in the direct link.
Is it me or is the forum software doing something to the colors?
I purposely hotlink to my own gallery instead of using the forum gallery specifically to avoid this kind of thing. I've never noticed this before in other forums... not to this degree.
It's not a huge deal, it was just frustrating me a little and I just now realized it seems to be forum specific. I don't know anything about php and other forum software programming so for all I know it could be an unavoidable problem. I guess I'm just curious as to the cause.
