    Photos taken at night. Images of the sky, star trails, and/or aurora are allowed (though not required!), but image stacking remains out-of-bounds.

    Yugoboy wore his sunglasses when crafting this theme under cover of darkness for us.

    Should be ok since there’s so much in shadow. Link should be up in a bit. Unfortunately we’re low on themes, and I always need several themes ready to schedule…

    Does the Fark rehost thing change the color spacing? I use sRGB which is pretty much standard practice for the major browsers now, but there’s a distinct difference between what I see in the thread versus what’s on flickr. Doing a hover-over with my link preview app shows it rather clearly (but I can’t screencap that). I can screencap side-by-side windows. If this is the cost of not worrying about dropouts (which generally isn’t a problem anymore), I’d rather have the old way back. This is pretty uncool.

    I honestly don’t know, but suspect it isn’t changing the color space. Kinda wonder if saving it is changing things slightly since it’s saving a jpg and compression is lossy. I can ask Mike (or you can email him if you’d prefer to ask yourself).

    That’s possible. Now that I saw that, I noticed it right away on my USS Missouri photo, too. The blues don’t pop like the original. Scrolling through the theme, there’s a couple others that look slightly washed out (to me anyway, that may have been artistic preference).

    I’d prefer if you asked Mike as I’ve never talked to him before.

    I’ll have to check some of mine to see if there’s any difference in color…

    Checked my milky way shot, couldn’t see any difference let alone one as pronounced as the one you posted above. I shoot RAW in sRGB and upload to Picasa in sRGB if that helps.
