Images darken when getting converted with ImageMagick

When using ImageMagick to manipulate images, you might see that images get darker when beeing modified by newer versions of ImageMagick.

This usually happens with CMYK images beeing converted to RGB by IM.

Solution

At least in our version of ImageMagick (6.7.7) you can solve this by passing this parameter to ImageMagick -colorspace sRGB.
The RGB colorspace was okay for ImageMagick until version 6.6.9. RGB and sRGB switched Show archive.org snapshot obviously.
