Images Not Appearing in IE Fix
by Jamison "JAK" Kissh on August 12, 2009
I’m writing this in hopes to save someone from having the same wild goose chase that I went through attempting to discover why a set of images would not show up in IE. I knew the image was there, I could navigate directly to the image’s location and be returned the little red “X” but not be given a 404 as if I were going to an image that didn’t exist. This seemed strange to me seeing as how I knew that it was a valid .jpg file and I knew that any modern browser should by all means support a jpeg. This sent me on a chase for an answer. I ended up over at designerstalk.com where a few members pointed me in the right direction. It took three tries but none of the previous tries hurt the first, they only improved the page. Finally one member said that he’d experienced a similar issue with jpegs saved in CMYK so back I went to the original images and sure enough all the images that would not display were CMYK images. I setup a batch to re-save and change the color mode to RGB and sure enough my images are all showing up now!
Images Appear Inverted in Safari
by Jamison "JAK" Kissh on August 11, 2009
I had a bit of a strange issue when I inadvertently stumbled upon a series of images that I had put online that were inverted in appearance, however this wasn’t perfect either. I went to the server and pulled the folder with the affected images down to my computer and noticed that even in Quick Look I still couldn’t see the image correctly. Going off a (seemingly) unrelated issue I had posted on DesignersTalk.com and will write about tomorrow I tried opening the images in Photoshop and re-saving them, that worked. So I set up a batch and let all the images open and re-save. Now I’m not entirely sure why this was happening however I am able to say that this is certainly a method to try if you ever run into something like this with your images.
