If I recall correctly, this is an old issue, and the reason why
there were "web-safe colors". Basically, it was said that different
software may threat images differently because of "inexact" colors
and/or different platforms --I don't recall the exact reason, though.
Do you have the image and color at hand? Maybe this could be more
clear if we compare them in our computers and software and tell you
whether their the same or not (with platform & software details).
