Hi All,
There is a better way of using colorsync profiles on the web, rather
embedding a profile for each image - which will increase the file size, you
can specify a profile to use for all images within a page using a body tag.
This can easy be done in Adobe Golive 4 or later by click on the page
inspector icon (next to the page title). Then select the Colorsync tab in
the inspector window and select your profile from the Profile menu.
I'm sure Dreamweaver has a similar way of adding propfile support.
The actual tag used is
<body iccprofile="icc/sRGB.icc">
In terms of browser support, IE4 or later for the Mac, Omniweb(nice) for
OSX support the profiles. No Windows browser seems to support it, and
Netscape 4-6 doesn't support it either. I've not tried Netscape 7 yet.
I definitely agree in converting the images to sRGB as this will mean
that the PC browsers display the colour correctly. The only problem is
netscape for the mac.
To convert images to sRGB I combined a couple of applescripts to do the
conversion from Apple RGB to sRGB and unembed any profile.
