Thanks Brian,

The images look *almost* the same to me.  The one on the right (with the
profile embedded) looks slightly less contrasty (the blacks are what caught
my attention).

I've turned on embedding by default in the save as dialog (Gamma 1.8 is what
I can select currently).  

One question (and yes I realize this is funny me asking it) is there anyway
to embed the profile when doing a web-gallery?    I always work on tiffs,
then run the Web Gallery Automation and am done with it.  I went thru the
options and didn't see any way to embedd it on jpeg output.  Hmmm.

Also, what color space do you work in?  I've just left it in sRGB.
