Problem with ICC profiles

Hello,
I cannot get the "true" colors from my colorist (see example here http://tof.canardpc.com/view/c87ac029-f ... 0c5513.jpg). Left image is the good one: it shows right in Gimp and Windows 7 preview but not in XnView (or Fastone Image Viewer). It's a jpg image made under Photoshop. I had the problem and corrected it in options>ICC>sRGB profile. It does not work anymore. I asked for the right profile to my colorist but it's the same.

Test and strange problem: after chosing sRGB, if I rebuild the thumbnails, they show correctly. I open the image and it's correct. I open another image and go back to the first: again, the colors are not good.

You can fix it with PS. Go to Edit > Convert to Profile > Destination Space and check sRGB IEC61966-2.1. Enjoy it :wink:

Yes.
I found why it worked and not now anymore... It shows "true" colors in XN1.99 and not in MP with the same ICC options...

It seems the file has lost its ICC profile when uploading to the site. Here is the original one: http://www.li-an.fr/boulot/temporaire/
And here is a comparison between the visual in XN and MP: http://tof.canardpc.com/view/9c1f695e-c ... 317929.jpg (sorry for another file but the problem is the same).

Well the 1.99 version is the same as the Gimp version and the good one for my colorist... S

Maybe Photoshop too because these versions are the "good" ones. So I'm just puzzled. Must I open them with something else than MP ? I don't see any other solution.

It seems to be the good version... and not what I see on my own MP.
I see this, a much more "flashy" version.
