I exported an image for my website a while ago and it looked super vibrant and the colors were really rich. I'm hoping someone can tell me how I exported the image because now my other exports are not as vibrant as before. I'll post an example so you all can see

    The more vibrant 'Logo 1.jpg' has a profile called 'Display' assigned. You should never assign your display's profile to your documents. It might be more pleasing on your computer, but it won't be what other people see.

     

    For RGB work, best practice is usually to keep sRGB as your working RGB profile, and assign that profile to all your RGB documents. Then adjust your colours until they look how you want them to look in that space/profile.

    There are a number of diffrent RGB modes some more vibrant than other, do all your CC programs have matching colour profiles? 

     

    Check the assigned color profiles: (Edit> Assign Profiles)

     

    Hope this helps,

    What's the document color mode of thos images? You need RGB for the web which is also usually brighter than CMYK

    In that case: check your color management settings.

    How are you exporting your images? Are you using a different method? I'm wondering if you are now embedding a Color Profile where you didn't previously or vice versa.

    That's good to see that you are embedding a color profile within the exported images. Do you know if the older images you are comparing them against also include a color profile?
