Since a .tif cannot be uploaded to Astrobin I assumed (incorrectly?) that a png file would be better than any jpg, no? What do you upload?

Should I reassign to AdobeRGB and reup?
Hi Peter,

In that case the profile is getting stripped off somewhere between your upload and my download. I just did a quick test and the same thing happened, so perhaps Astrobin is broken again. I'll see if I can find out...

I normally upload a reasonable quality JPEG file and keep the lossless versions for printing

These days I suspect that AdobeRGB is a better lowest common denominator profile than sRGB. Even cheap LCD screens have a reasonably wide gamut.

Cheers,
Rick.
