Re: 2.4 color problem

Peter,

Reading ahead, "GIMP's new color management" seems
to be the consensus explanation. I'm wondering,
though, if the same color contrast exists when the
images are displayed full scale by both programs,
noticing that your GIMP image at least is being seen
at 25% of normal size.  Different scaling sampling
convolution matrix constants is another possible
reason the colors might differ.

Has anyone else noticed that images opened in 2.4 often appear darker
or more saturated than they were originally? Here is an example of one
jpg from my camera, opened in Irfanview and also in the Gimp:

a lot darker. Both images have not been altered. Any thoughts as to
why this would happen?
