So I have been able to sort through my issues so far alone, but this one has me stumped.
I am using the visual editor to add links to a splash page I made in photoshop. When I created my page in CC, I used the same color code for my background color as I used when I created my photoshop file. Everything looks perfect in my preview, but once I test it in my browser (firefox) or actually upload it-I have two different colors.
http://www.emilyblackmorephotography.com is the page I created-and shows my problem. How can I have two different colors if I used the same hex code? The buttons (my links) and the other images are all .jpg files

I just checked it in IE, and the colors are the same, but not in firefox. Is there any way to fix this?

For me they both look identical in FX and IE.:)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Looks all one color to me in Firefox :)

I was still having the problem on my FF, so I googled (I love google!) and I found my answer. Although the spread was made in photoshop, I saved my buttons for web, and I saved the background as a normal .jpg, and although everything was a .jpg file, they were saved with different color profiles. So I went back to photoshop, saved my background as a web image, and it looks perfect now on my browser! Ahhh a 3 day job, is finally done :)

I've learned never to think "this will only take a few minutes" :lol:
Glad you found the answer!
