In reply to SeanB: I just wanted to check that we aren't stripping off any colour profile data when you upload a photo to UKC:
-

that is a test upload of your photo that I extracted from Flickr, which has the AdobeRGB profile embedded in it. As you can see, the colour profile is correctly preserved after being uploaded to UKC
I presume that when you created a version of that photo for UKC, whatever saving method or tool you used, it removed the colour profile (without doing the correct colour conversion) and so defaults to sRGB instead, and looks wrong.
So the take home messages are:
1. You *can* upload AdobeRGB color photos to UKC and they will work, but not all browsers support it, so the photo colours will look wrong for some users
2. You are better off ticking the 'convert to sRGB' option when you save your photo, before uploading to UKC. That way the colours will look as you intended for all users, with any web browser
Thanks for bringing this issue to our attention.
