Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Make sure you are using sRGB color space!.

If you are using photoshop just go Edit > Assign profile > sRGB

Doing this will actually change the colors

If you don't want to change the colors go to Edit > Convert to profile > Under destination space, click the drop down menue and select sRGBWww@QuestionHome@Com

I don't get this because I only upload pictures to websites if I know what kind of quality they disaply!. If you use photoshop, you should change the image mode to RGB if it's for web and ZCMYK for print, that way you'll mostly get the right colours!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
