Problem solved! (For now…)

The time has come to get to the bottom of this. I’ve always kind of ignored the infamous colour profile problem in Photoshop, but seeing as that my photos will be the best way of describing what life is like in Sweden, I finally fired up Google and found what I was looking for (only after realising that spelling ‘color’ is the only way to search these days).

The Mysterious ‘Save For Web’ color shift.

Ever wonder why your colours shift dramatically when exporting without an embedded colour profile? Firefox and Safari are two of the few browsers that do read the embedded profiles, however IE does not, and this means your photos, web graphics and ultimately masterpiece designs are shifted across all clients.

Get on this tutorial on how to configure Photoshop and get your photos tight and right.
