exactly

that's the whole point of color management

even if you can match what YOU see in your browser in Photoshop, you have no
idea how what you are seeing will display on someone else's browser on a
different monitor. Non-color managed software increases the problem, rather
than diminishing it

that is why you have to consider color management

which LE doesn't have

You can't win, you can't break even and you can't get out of the game.

Time to stump up for the full version.
