Actually the thumbs are all matching the full size preview now, oversaturated thumb and preview, must have been the last rebuild. What is interesting though is that these over saturated images don't have any camera information BUT the Nikon D90 profile has been applied to it, and the other images which have the camera info embeded (the Nikon D90) have the adobergb profile applied. The opposite of what I've been trying to do. hmmm

So that's obviously why they look so awful, just need to find out why it's doing that.

Send me one that is acting up.

Send me one from the Nikon that is not picking up the profile. It is RAW? Not JPG, right?

So, when I click save on the raw settings it takes me to the profiles folder. So I presume that I can only make an association with a camera if it has its own icc profile, so I have to give it the same name as the icc profile for that camera? Is that right?

It will name itself when it finds the matching profile. You can add to the name to designate one profile for lens X which is very sharp, and a second SAVE with more sharpening for Lens Y which is softer.

Okay, so I've figured out what I did to mess it up. It's working as it should be now. I'd managed to overwrite the colour management setting for 'unknown device' (which was the oversaturated web image) with the profile for the d90, set it back to sRGB.icc and it's fine now. As for the Raw settings, it's working as it should be now, had to delete some files from the profiles folder and start again. So I've now got a default raw setup and a different one for the D90 raw which I need to play around with. All working really well now though so that's the main thing! I've been comparing the same images in ACR to Q and I have to say ACR doesn't come close! I've yet to get a nice sharp image in ACR, does some really horrible things to the image. Q's images look great straight away with the minimal of tweaks without artifacts, I don't know why I didn't start using it before.

By the way, is the image inspector in Q set at 100% zoom, couldn't see a mention anywhere?

Thanks again. J

PS My extreme test settings were 10 radius and 1000% not 100 as I'd written. Not sure if it goes that high but it didn't complain. Either way when I got it working it did look absolutely disgusting as hoped so the test worked.

I was referring to the slider being adjusted to zero if you really want to see a change.

On the Image examiner, roll your center mouse wheel to change magnification.
Got to go out for a while.

Ah, of course! The slider... I'll have a go with the magnification now then, it looks like 100% at default but I guess that'd change depending on resolution. Anyway, Thanks a lot Fred, managed to figure out loads over the last 24 hours, half the time it just helps enough to know that certain functions exist. Right, time to pick up the missus!

Thanks again.
