As someone who wants to put the “correct” image out for the world to see, I am always fearful that some process, profile, or browser will somehow manipulate or alter the way I originally intended the image to be viewed. While I have not had problems with what I see on my monitor and what I see in print, I certainly have seen issues with the files I process and what ends up on the web.

I won’t even touch what Facebook does to compress photos that are uploaded to their site.

I worry that even though I am saving images for the web in the sRGB color space that depending on what browser and setup the user has, they may or may not see the file as I intended for them to. Given the variety of browsers, monitors, and other equipment, I am not really sure that one can ever have total control over that.
