Fixing the pink label scans problem in Firefox

[bosshoss]

If you are seeing some scans looking pink like this in Firefox :

Left side shows Internet Explorer, right side shows Firefox

the following post will show you how to fix the problem.

You have to disable color management in Firefox for tagged images.
Here's how to fix it....

In the URL (address) bar of Firefox, type in :

about:config

You will get a warning not to continue. Keep going.
Scroll down the long list, and locate the following system variable :

gfx.color_management.mode

It should be currently set to "2"
Double click on the "2" and change it to "0"

Restart Firefox.
Fixed!

after changing gfx.color_management.mode :

left side shows Internet Explorer, right side shows Firefox

Aaah, so my Purple Virus joke flew right above non-Firefox users heads...

It IS purple more than PINK right? Bit color blind...

Thanks, Mark. I thought you added the pink purposely, like a watermark, to keep people from using the scans elsewhere.
The "66/Sound" label looks absolutely fantastic with the original colors. Would you mind to show a few more of those typical down under mod style labels?

I just saw this on youtube. Looks a bit similar. Cool tune, too.

The Dawks are really cool. Its the Forvms who are actually the dorks!

Love the harmonies on that Forvms track. Really great LP if you want a break from non-stop pounders...
