Shel,

Nearly all of the JPEGs I post have an embedded sRGB profile, regardless of whether they are grayscale or RGB. Are any of them tinted? They're not on my screen, but I don't know how they render on your screen. I'd say that if they have a tint, something is likely off in your monitor calibration.

My concern is that I've seen a number of sRGB "greyscale" images with
severe color tints.  I don't believe all of them were intended to be
tinted. It's not so much a matter of saving space as it is of getting, and
showing,  the intended result..

That doesn't make sense since SFW strips out the color profiles. I post all my B&W as greyscakle, not sRGB .... haven't had any complaints yet.


Have a look at the details of a grayscale image saved using SFW, you'll
find
it's a 24 bit jpeg. As far as I'm aware it's only possible to save
grayscale
jpeg images as grayscale out of PS using "save" or "save as". Curiously
there
is little to be gained saving a jpeg as a grayscale image, the file size
is
almost the same as the same image saved in RGB format.
