Hi DAN re-profile your images in photoshop before you start saving for web.
Most of the Images are converted down to srgb files , But if your using the ADOBE RGB 1998 profile to view on photoshop then this is why your getting a difference in colours.
Heres what i do i have my camera profile set to Adobe rgb i then use NX2 to convert the RAW images "still as ADOBE RGB",
When you transfer the image to MY PICTURES via raw converter copy it this allows you to keep the original and have a low res copy for internet use.
Right click on mouse then open with ... And choose photoshop.
When opened in photoshop click on EDIT then either CONVERT TO PROFILE or ASSIGN PROFILE . You should still have the image at ADOBE RGB 1998. Well change that profile to sRGB IEC61966-2.1 profile-OK.
Then save the Image as JPEG 8-BIT JOB DONE
All you need to do then is resize them in save for web.

Be aware that Convert to profile and Assign profile are not the same thing though.
You really should use convert to profile

Hi Barry thanx for that your right i wasnt sure which one , BUT YOU ARE RIGHT use convert to profile 
Hi ROSS thanx for that the main reason i use convert to profile is mainly for the lab that i use they like sRGB files and i always convert that way by using convert to profile.
Its just a habit that has stuck with me even when using images for the web THANX for the advice.

Quote:If you use the 'Save for web' facility in CS2 it automatically converts the image to sRGB.
Not entirely true
You have the option to convert the image to sRGB but it is just that, an option. You do have to 'check' the box otherwise it will not do it

I may be wrong, but I have sRGB check box ticked in CS4 and do not have to tick it every time I save a file. It remembers the state of the tick box the last time you used it.

Hi Steve, you are right it does "remember" but it is an option.
It's not the case that it does this by default if you see what I mean (that's what I was trying to get across. The comment previously said this process was automatic which strictly speaking it isn't as you have to have chosen to do it)
