Shutterfly Books and Color Changes

[Wyldfyre63]

I'm wondering if any of you have had this problem.......I uploaded a front cover, spine & back cover to Shutterfly for a new book. The cardstock I used on all three is the same, yet the only one that shows the color correctly is the front cover. Both the spine & the back cover show a completely different color green. I tried uploading a second time just in case some error happened in the upload process. It was the same the second time too.

I would hate to assume that the colors will show up correctly upon printing of the book and have it print wrong. Anyone else experience this? What did you do? Thanks ladies.

Did you apply the Vivid Pics correction? If you see a bad color discrepancy, call them before you order it. I have had that problem when I didn't use the correction. They can tell you if they see the problem. If they don't, and they print it and it's off, they will reprint it for you.

Thanks Sarah. I completely forgot about Vivid Pics (it's been awile since I made a book). I'm going to try that and see if it works. Thanks!

It might not do it for you, but I did that once with the cover and spine (forgot to turn it off), and the results were shocking even on my screen. I hope that helps!
