Subject: [css-d] Colors in PShop vs. browser

Hi, has anyone else experienced seeing colors somewhat differently in  
Photoshop vs. a web browser? Everything looks significantly darker in  
Photoshop. It certainly adds an unnecessary obstacle to the design  
process!
Any tips on why this might be happening, and how to alleviate it?
(I'm trying to match the background of an image--it's an image of  
type--to a hexadecimal background color.)
Thanks!
Lalena
P.S. Hello, Ron Zisman!

It's because of color profiling.  If you have a browser that obeys color 
profiles, then it'll match, but most browsers don't have that support.  so you 
need to save your photoshop image without a color profile.

Another way around this would be to save the text with a transparent background 
and just let the background color on the page bleed through.
