pretty <33

Discolouration is probably due to compression.

In order to keep space usage low any image bigger then 1280 pixels gets reduced in size by the site. often resulting in a lower-quality jpeg of what might have been lossless PNG.
If you want the image to come out perfectly on the site i would suggest to resize the image yourself to 1280. Or try to "change submission file" which tends to bypass the restriction.

Hope this helps ^^

So if I change the submission file to the exact same file, that my bypass the issue?

Anyway, thanks for the help :) I'll give those a try!

hm. tried both of those and it's still messing with my colours :(

Awww. You tried resizing into a 1280px PNG and see that when uploaded it stays a PNG?

I switched it to 1280 and to a png. how do I check if it stays a png?

You press the download link which links to the source...which should be a .PNG.
atm it goes to a .jpg. :<

Interestingly it goes to a jpg that's the RIGHT colours XD
so how do I make sure it DOES switch?

I've just been pulling images from other peoples pages, and they've all been too red too.

haha, so it -seems- like FA shows all my jpgs as too red. Now that I've switched it the full view looks like it should (though not the regular view, which is confusing, but whatever)
Thanks for your help though! Much appreciated! I'll have to post all future colour commissions as Png!

There is a reason that whenever an edit is done the artist proclaims CTRL-F5. Try that first :P
As for it being still jpg. idk what the change submission feature does nowadays. (it might be changing formats to keep the filename the same...i honestly don't know)

Very good choice ^^
I always submit as 1280p PNGs for i have accepted PNG as the true format of the current age and have Abolished the dated jpg and its lossy (and reddening) compression.
VIVA LA PNG!!

Oh great image btw. The atmosphere is brilliant!! :D

Glad you like it :)

It's tough to pinpoint what I love the most about this, but I think it's a tie between her eyes, and his mountain goating the background. But her hands are also so perfect and elegant, and the background just sweeps me away and inspires storytelling.

You've really outdone yourself with this one, Brindle.

Glad you like it! And thanks!
I wish it was coming through in the colours I'd intended. It's not tons different, mostly just the highlights in the background are more yellow, and more intense.
Anyway, these were fun characters to work with! Feel free to commission again any time :)

I really like how you've depicted the sand storm and the way it has blurred the images background!

Are you managing your color profile?
Perhaps you are embedding a color profile in your art that doesn't work well, or maybe are not using one at all?

Don't know what any of that means.
But uploading as a Png instead of a jpg seems to have fixed it.

Color profiles are small bits embedded in images that tell display, print, and image apps how to display an image so that colors remain consistent among highly variant devices and inks and stuff. Embedding a color profile with an image can reduce variation when painting, especially if you work on different displays. <:

Interested in the context of this O.O

For wing it commissions like this I just try to do something that suggests a story or a relationship. The commissioner is a writer though. You might be better off asking them what's going on. I'm sure they've got ideas XD

Ooo, what's going on here? Looks like a good story :3 Nice work!
