Safari is going to either use embedded sRGB profiles or assume the non
tagged or embedded images to use your monitor profile as source (colours)
profile. So on other's systems it will look different depending on their
default set up.
So Photoshop will have to assume something, which you'll likely assign sRGB
when opening, thus it is also then run through the monitor profile.
I get identical results here on Tiger with both tagged (embedded) or not.
Flash however doesn't use any ICC conversions as far as I know, but I just
did a quick test and Flash Player follows the changes in Monitor setup as
does Safari with different monitor gammas profiles.
Photoshop however does not. When I change to a gamma 1.8 profile when
updating the image in Photoshop CS3 the image goes darker than Flash or
Safari.
I tried applying the monitor profile in Photoshop as well and it is only
when a profile with a gamma around 2.2 is chosen do the colours and density
appear the same in all three; Flash, Photoshop, and Safari.
Firefox 3 now has a plug-in for color managed windows with ICC profiles,
just I could not get it to install.
