Also gives you a better touch up in levels. Apologies if you already knew this but thought I would share some new (for me) knowledge
so, i'm wondering where you boys learned color management. not just you and your graphics guy, it's the whole lot on here. the first thing you guys do is throw away your color infomation? why do suppose that your cameras and devices have 16 bit color spaces? 32 and 48 bit portable devices are not that far awy.
have you just not learned color management and the relationship to color spaces?
sorry for the rant, and sorry to bust his bubble, but this finally hit a nerve.
these guys are not the best, but you can get stated.
