When you color correct watch your whites make sure they stay white.

Unless you were trying to make it look bad, then you did a bad job. You also compressed it really weird too, might wanna fix that up too.

Sarcastic, sardonic, unkind and without construction to go with the criticism. Once again, cunt.

I actually gave him a comment about his compression, which seemed complete fine to me. Also, i wasnt being sarcastic about saying that he tried to make it look like that, because some people do that. Calm down my friend.

you commented on the compression, but didnt help in any way, or suggest an alternative. saying something is wrong is not constructive. also, it was clear that this guy was trying to colour correct well, not in a pretentious 'its so bad its good' kind of way, so dont try and claim you thought otherwise. you of all people should be helping, as this is your field of expertise, next time think a little more about what you say, rather than being so malicious.

the reason i pick you up on it, is because i see it quite often. you often make disparaging remarks that are completely useless. i dont need calming down, but i just think that you should be more considerate, more often.

also, i'd like to note that the people are not naturally green, so you didn't do a good job of color correction.

is your monitor overly red or magenta, leading to an oddly colored image? I'm only asking because it's unlikely that all of our monitors are too green.

What may look normal on his screen may not look normal on ours. Don't know if this is what happened, but it could.

instead of doing the color correction on the comp after you shoot, you should try to white balance before you shoot. i dont know what camera your using, but a quick google search or look through the manual should help you out there.
