Wow - that monkey is certainly a unique color.  It looks like he got sprayed with red paint!

Your HSB version is very interesting because you are using HSB to set a neutral by dropping the saturation of any colors that are below a certain threshold.  This works quite well in this case, so you may have found a new technique.

The fact that it is also more accurate is icing on the cake (do they use that expression in Holland?).


I understand it. We have not the same expressions about such a thing but another.
I can't remember, so quickly the expression. But we have a lot of expressions.
Here in holland we have lots of outlanders, so they do not understand our expressions. Also not after they live here for 15 years or more.

I guess each country has a lot of people busy inventing expressions.

BTW - I removed Curvemeister from my system, deleted the registry entries, and re-installed.  The pins worked normally, so I'm fairly stumped at the moment.  I'll go back and look at the .reg files you sent me and see if I can get a clue there.

Hi Frits,
It's interesting to think about the case of an image filled with spheres, cubes, and cones, all in different shades of yellow.  For that particular image, absent any information about the actual colors, neither you nor I would have any idea what the correct colors were.  What would you do in that case?  Should the objects be made neutral, left as-is, or something else? 

BTW - Here is another image of a similar monkey that you may want to try color correcting.

i don't know, but not neutral it.  On what ?  So I will experiment with the yellows till  it looks normal for my eyes.
I will do the last monkey. Very pitty the picure is so small.

Mike, often I thinking on this problem.  You have send us a reg. solutions.
But CM does not find the reg solution. He must look in the registry.
Why he does this not for this item. ?

Extract the .reg file and double click on it.  It will change the location of your pin folder and perhaps solve the problem for the time being.

I have another large monkey image, but it has the same color cast as the first one.  I found the image by doing a search for "proboscis monkey" on google, so you may be able to find another larger one.

I use process monitor from www.sysinternals.com (it is now included in Microsoft's site) for such things.
You can be selective with this prgr.

I know to handle .reg files.
But it gives not the solution. CM does not read or jump to the .reg vectors.
