By now I’m sure everyone has upgraded to the latest FireFox but what most people night not know about is that FireFox3 was a long awaited release for those of us in photography. Why? Because FireFox3 added colour management to it’s list of features. A few browsers like Safari, and I believe Opera as well already had this functionality but FireFox now joins this elite few.

However, this functionality isn’t enabled by default and infact, there isn’t even an option to turn it on without going into the about:config page.

So here’s how you do it.

In the address bar of Firefox, type in about:config.
Scroll down to gfx.color_management.enabled. By default this is set to false. Double click on it to change it to true.
Restart Firefox.

Now stare in awe as your colour managed images appear the way they should!
