Images appear washed out in Chrome / most browsers except Edge

[Vageetasjn]

I noticed that some images are looking washed out or desaturated for me in most browsers. Here is a comparison of the same image in Edge (left) and Chrome (right): http://i.imgur.com/cxf7ERQ.jpg

It only looks bright and vibrant in Edge -- not in Chrome, Opera, or Firefox.

And here is the original image: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2021/2441146774_e65d902564_o.jpg

Is there a way to fix this?

They look identical.

All look the same in IE11. ???

WilliamM2, corkyg, you guys need to get your eyes checked. Unless the two of you were joking.

The right picture has bad white balance rendering.

I meant the image on the left looks identical to the original, whether I open it in IE, Chrome, or edge. Not the way he showed it looking in Chrome on the left.

NM.

Color's a bit off in the right image.

I like the right image. Has a "vintage" tone. Probably not what you want in an image renderer though :^D

Opened the original in IE11, Firefox, and Edge on two different PCs, looks just like the left image on all of them.

Maybe a hardware acceleration setting? Is this a laptop with a discrete GPU? Might be using the integrated with wonky gamma settings but Edge is being picked up and is using the discrete GPU.

Why would hardware acceleration determine the final rendered output differently? I would imagine it would only affect the time to render, not the end result.

Naw, this is a vintage tone

Why doesn't he try changing the settings and see what happens.

Don't ask me. It's "Windows". And yes, it does, sometimes.

Does this happen to nearly all images? It looks like color profile/management mess up

Both images look THE SAME in IE6 (MyIE2)


Is there anyway to actually take a snapshot of how you are seeing it Vageetasjn??

Maybe open a seperate image program and take a snap of the picture in your browser?? (Take a snapshot of your desktop with the pic displaying in your browser,then we should all see what you see)

Like if you took a seperate camera and took a pic of your screen......
