[thelist] Photoshop > Colour washout on 'save for web'

[Roberto Gorjão]

Paul,

I forgot something that may be of some importance (before you actually 
change to fireworks… ;-) ):

Depending on the source of your image, it may come already with a 
profile, and there may be a mismatch between the image’s profile and the 
profile you’ve set for web. So, it may be a good idea to assign the sRGB 
IEC61966-2.1 color profile to the image (menu image / mode / assign 
profile) before you begin working on it, or to convert it to this 
profile (menu image / mode / convert to profile) if you’ve already 
worked on it.

Also, I presumed, maybe wrongly, that you were working on windows… In 
Mac, the Adobe Gamma is substituted by Monitor Calibrator and you may 
not want to delete it…

All these indications were targeted to Photoshop CS. If you are using 
other version, let me know.

You have some interesting information that may help you on Photoshop CS 
help: press F1 and select Producing Consistent Color in the left menu.
