Hi, I'm no colorspace expert either, but here's what i know: default in webbrowsers that are not "colorspace aware" is sRGB, so pictures stored with ProPhoto or Adobe RGB should display incorrectly in those.
I dont have a OSX machine but i think Safari is color space aware, FF2 is not, FF3beta should be (not sure on a mac, but definitly on windoze), not sure about the IEs either as i ignore them as much as i can. if you resample the images the colospace information will probably be dropped (i doubt very much that gdlib knows anything about color spaces) and images are displayed using default sRGB color space ... So probably best for you is to use sRGB instead of ProPhoto, if you produce stuff for the web cheers Andreas > This may be slightly off-topic.
