[Hidden-tech] Odd image transmission issue

[Doug Lowing]

This inversion of colors in jpg images is showing up in several sites.
 Petfinder gets many submissions and during the past few months, quite a
few images have inverted colors.
There are two suggested solutions: zip the file (suggested previously in
this thread) or save it in RGB format rather than CYMK, then send the
image.  Cameras should create an image in RGB format, but if it is modified
with editing software, it might  be saved as CMYK.  Since it came from a
publishing house I bet it has been modified to fit the printers' needs.

This link might help explain the difference of images for the web and for
print

It is not a new problem but to me it seems to be occurring more frequently.
