(Core :: Graphics: Color Management, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.1) Gecko/20090624 Firefox/3.5

Consider the image: notice how dark the bottom of the image appears. Now, open it in any other browser or image viewer and compare it's rendering in that program to how it is rendered in Firefox. It is immensely different, is it not?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to the above link, or view any large dark image.
2. Compare it's rendering to the image's rendering in another program.
Actual Results:  
You can see the difference in the image's brightness.

Expected Results:  
Rendered the image properly?

>it in any other browser or image viewer
Which image application or browser do you tested that does Color Correction ?

Either your monitor profile is broke, thge image contains wrong Color information or you mean bug 497363

Why, then, does the image render properly in Firefox 3.0.11?

Comment 3

Because color correction is new in Firefox 3.5 ?
(or correct: it got the first time enabled by default in 3.5 while it's disabled in FF3.0.11).

You can disable the color correction: type about:config as URL in FF, confirm the warning,enter "gfx" in the top search bar (without ""), and change "gfx.color_management.mode" from "2" to "0".
