Hello!
I’m a Food Talk Central and Hungry Onion member, both hosted by Discourse. After every automatic iPhone upgrade the photos I post are dull and the color is off. They look sharp in my photo album but upload poorly. It only happens on the 2 sites I use hosted by Discourse. Is there a compatibility issue?
Asking @discobot to help on the actual site did nothing, btw.
Thanks!
Could you share side by side screenshots illustrating the problem?
That’s the problem. I wish I could. Since they are both coming from my photo album they will look the same because the problem is when they upload. In my photo album the photo below is sharper, brighter and the color of the fries are more reddish orange from the spice powder. But when I upload it here it is duller, less defined and the color is off - just like on FTC & HO.
So if you screenshot a site with your uploaded image the colours are restored?
Only on Discourse & Discourse hosted sites. I just texted the same photo to myself and sent it to someone on IG to test and it looks exactly like the photo in my album.
Can you upload the same photo elsewhere and link it to us in here? It can be on imgur, twitter, or anywhere else public you can.
Okay I will try that soon. Thanks!
Okay I deleted and re-posted. Sorry, I’m not a big IG user. This photo is exactly how it looks in my photo album but won’t upload onto Discourse hosted sites anymore. See the difference from the photo I uploaded?
Colors are definitely different. I wonder if that is because of png to jpg quality is set to 95 or if we are stripping some HDR color profile.
This picture on IG has no filter?
This works fine for me, I get the same picture on Instagram and when I upload on Discourse. Are you using filters or editing the posts through the apps you are uploading to other sites with?
Hi @Falco -
Sorry to be responding just now. Since I’m a new Discourse member I had maxed-out my replies for the day and was prompted to wait 10 hrs. I got too busy with work & life.
Anyway
This is beyond my tech knowledge but sounds logical. I’m wondering if someone already made the adjustment? Because I did another report on both IG & FTC this week and the photos seemed almost identical this time.
Thanks for your help!
Hi @osioke - Except for changing the size I only edit & adjust my photos in my photo album. Yours do look exact. What camera phone do you use? Have you experienced an upgrade lately? This happens to me after automatic iPhone upgrades.
I spoke too soon. Some of my uploaded photos on my sites hosted Discourse are still dull. 
Is there something to be done about this “png to jpg quality is set to 95 or if we are stripping some HDR color profile.”?
又遇到了同样的问题。我的相册里的照片明亮而清晰，但当我把它们上传到 Food Talk Central 和 Hungry Onion（都由 Discourse 托管）时，它们就变得暗淡了。这次有人能帮我吗？这张截图来自三年前这个帖子里的 @falco。这会是同样的问题吗？
TheCookie1 发给我一张样图，结果有点奇怪。
我得到了一张番茄的图片。经过 Discourse 压缩的图片比原图看起来“更红”（饱和度更高）。
如果我将图片上传到 Discord，Discord 上的图片也比原图看起来更红。
但奇怪的是：
如果我将浏览器中看起来都更红的 Discourse 和 Discord 图片都下载到硬盘，并用 Irfanview 打开它们，只有从 Discourse 下载的图片看起来更红。从 Discord 下载的图片看起来像原图，但在浏览器中却显得更红。
总之……我完全不知道是怎么回事 
（顺便说一句，原图不是 HDR 的。
原图：
Discourse 重新压缩：
上传到 Discord：(我不知道 Discord 对上传做了什么，但最终的图片比原图略浅)
这很奇怪。我遇到的问题是，当我将照片上传到 Food Talk Central 和 Hungry Onion（都由 Discourse 托管）时，颜色不是变暗，而是比我的原始照片更浅、更暗淡。这只是最近几周才出现的问题。
将 @rlauriston（来自 FTC）添加到对话中。
是的，这让我也很惊讶。在我的屏幕上，上传的图片更饱和，而不是更不饱和，这与你 3 年前的帖子相矛盾。
你好 @Canapin
实际上是同一个问题。我相册里的照片很清晰，色彩鲜艳。我上传的照片色彩暗淡，也不够清晰。
我可以上传你的图片在这里吗？
