Default Re: Converting an image for posting – what am I doing wrong?

I'm sure Roger is right...it's your colorspace. The Web is not color managed. Even embedding a profile does not guarantee it will be used. Also, to simplify your process forget PPI altogether for the web. 72DPI is a very old number. Monitors haven't been 72 DPI in 10 years. Just work in pixels instead (which the Save for Web tool will allow you to do anyway!)
