Ok, I want to create an image in Photoshop whose background matches the background in a webpage. I'm using the "Generic RGB Profile" for my monitor, and "sRGB IEC61966-2.1" for Photoshop (I'm using the North American General Purpose Defaults). No matter what profile I use for my image, it's either darker or lighter than the background on the webpage. Using one color profile (I can't remember which, I tried so many), I was able to get the colors to match in Safari, but not in Firefox.
What do I do?
I've figured out that if I don't color manage the image and export it as a PNG with "Save As" (not "Save for Web"), then the colors will match on Firefox, but they will be darker in Safari. If I use the "Generic RGB Profile" and export it with "Save for Web", the colors wil be right in Firefox, but they'll be darker in Safari.
