I was finding that my pictures were getting stripped of their colour, and changed the profile of these to sRGB profile in Image, mode, Convert to profile. But they are uploading lighter than the original on my computer. Any suggestions?

My new CCD pics
I've got tons of pics I'd like to show you, here are but a few. They not only cleaned my camera, they adjusted the censor and the autofocus. I'm so happy to have her back. Check it.

wow these are cool and surreal especially the 2nd one
maybe i should break my camera and get it sent to the place yours got yours fixed, they do wonders! more than 30 sec exposure?
So your camera was malfunction with AF previously? and you didn't know?

Man these are cool! I really like them and great news on having you camera back.
When the first one loaded I thought it was in landscape orientation but it kept going as I scrolled down... and I liked the shot even more. Very cool pipes! As wendell said a very surreal quality to the next two photos. I think I like #2 a little more, number three some a bit blown out in places , inparticular a little right of centre.
G'day Dave,
Glad you've got your toy back... No wonder you had to go out and play 
Really like the first two, especially the second that one really does it for me... Aka Andrew
#1 & #2 for me. I think the post here of #1 doesn't do it justice though. It looks like in reality the src is bigger than this. I dunno but some of the curves of the pipe work look like they have jagged edges which is usually when the image has been resized with no antialiasing/resampling.

Thanks for all of the comments. Very appreciated. I actually have many more still to come.
#3 is 115 secs #4is 15 secs #1 20 secs #2 122 secs They are all shot between f11 and f16. These long exposures definitely work better in smaller apetures. Unfortunately my lens hood is broken and I got lots of stray light in that could have been avoided otherwise. I also ran out of batteries, so I bought a generic battery yesterday. Anyone have any experience with those? Birdie, I think they said that they adjusted the backfocus or something. No I didn't really notice that there was a problem other than it seemed to be hunting around a lot, and I was manually overiding it often too (another reason I tend to shoot these at small apetures).
Throughout my European trip I've been using a generic one I bought off Ebay for about A$20 including postage, alternating between that and the EL-EN3 that came with the camera. I perhaps get slightly less usage out of the generic battery than the genuine one, but I'm stoked with it, for the money it can't be beat IMO. The D70's battery meter goes from fully-charged to one bar pretty damn quickly (certainly within a day's shooting) so if you can't afford to lose half a day's shooting, having the extra cheapo generic battery is the way to go IMO.
Edit: and on the photos, love 1 and 4, but the blown lights get me in 2 and 3. Maybe try taking a ~15 s exposure or so for the lights, then the 120-odd second exposure for the rest of the scene, and PS them together. Not that I use it so I may be wrong, but I think PSCS2's HDR is intended for this.
Thanks MCWB.
I actually did take a 25 second one to do exactly what you're talking about, but to be honest with you I just can't be bothered to figure out how to do it. I'm too lazy, but I have the photo though. THat HDR in CS2 is going to be my ticket. Just load them up and watch the program do the trick...perfect!
Interesting point you make about the back focus problem. Fairfax community newspapers have just changed all their gear to Canon apparently because their Nikons all suffered from an inherent back focusing problem. It's not something that I've ever noticed in my D70.
I don't think the main reason that Fairfax Community newspaper switch their gears to Canon coz theirs Nikons suffered back focusing problems. Perhaps their eyes are mis-alignment, send them to the optometrist for doing the eye test  Birddog114

#2 is very cool, IMO, Dave.
Dunno about the color problem. I always use sRGB.  my gallery of so-so photos
