Ok but your are saying that your 'mac' images were tagless (no profile) and
your PC images were tagged (some profile). This seems to be the opposite of
the color management only works if... If your IE5 can read a tag then your
mac images should be tagged as well...? Right? I guess I should just be
asking..What profile do you guys use when uploading images to the web? When
I d/l images to look at on my computer they are almost always have no color
profile...
