CMYK color scheme advisor
Check color scheme (CMYK vs RGB) on images uploads.
Why? Because in Windows there is no problem, but navigators under Macos and unix like OSs normaly render CMYK images terrible bad, like negativa images, but Manu uses upload images from Windows and do not know they are uploading wrong versions (and probably they never herad about color schemes).
How? I am not programmer
interface?
A alert message when uploading a CMYK image.
A warning icon next to the thumbnail on image list admin page.

Re: CMYK color scheme advisor
Maybe that’s something that could be added to adi_image_tab?

Maybe.
Or maybe it can be an advanced preference in the core.
¿Force CMYK images to RGB on upload? yes (default) no

What version of GD library does your Txp’s Diagnostics say you have? According to these folk version 2.0.22+ supports CMYK and some say it does conversion automatically (although I don’t know if that’s because of the app they’re using: perhaps Txp’s core doesn’t do that?)

I just tested with GD Version – bundled (2.0.34 compatible) and no conversion takes place on upload.
Its displays in the technicolor neon glowing style when viewed in a browser (ff/mac) but reverts the the exact CMYK breakdown when downloaded :)
