Photoshop Plea

Many have complained about me not finishing my new theme but I have a good reason for the delay. Awesome takes time. My current hurdle is of particular note. It’s a photoshop thing, please examine the image below.

Photoshop save for web problem

The image on the left is the photoshop version, the image on the right is the save for web preview. I used a screenshot that didn’t pass through any other photo application (OS X has that cool screenshot directly to a file that lets you select the area you want copied).

The image on the right has become lighter and I don’t know why, here are some things I have tried

  • Change color profiles to match my macbook pro monitor
  • Taking a screenshot and then importing the image and then saving
  • I thought it might be that the colors weren’t “web compatible” but after saving a web compatible version I can open the new lighter version and then if I try to save it again for web the colors again become lighter.

    So, wtf?

    Anyone got some ideas as to why I’m having this problem? I’ve tried some searches and I’ve asked some photoshop “gurus” (they told me to shut up and drink the koolaid…maybe they were just gurus)
