Off topic - no more on this subject please (except that as I'm
already cluttering your inboxes...)
The bottom line for making sure that your images will display
consistently is an issue of using the right colour profile in your
image editing program and/or embedding the relevant profile info in
your image. Hence the safest policy (usually) is just to stick to the
basic RGB profile. Your photoshop is probably using sRGB by default
(thanks Adobe).
In the future, when CSS3 becomes a reality then colour will become a CSS issue

And proper colour management is arriving in browsers...

... although that may create more problems than it solves if past
form is anything to go by

Anyhow, start here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_management
But none of this is really on topic for a list about the nitty gritty
of using CSS.
So no more discussion of this on list though please. Unless anyone
has anything constructive to say about the CSS3 color module...
