I have some serious problems with photoshop. When I save picture for any format it looks so wrong (colors) when I watch it with other applications or net browser. I actually had to take screenshot from the Photoshop and paste it to MS paint that I could make a file that looks OK. This is really driving me crazy 
So, does anyone know what could be a problem? I really would appreciate your help. Thanks! 
I use European Prepress defaults. it uses AdobeRGB (1998) for RGP profile. |

Turn off color profiles/color management. Problem solved.
Your colors will be the same as they are in your browser.
Color management is only really useful when you are targetting a specific output device (your printer, for example). When you want something to look good on a wide range of devices (other people's monitors), it's best to turn it off and just make sure your monitor is adjusted to be as true as possible.

| Yeah, use the default RGB setting (web graphics or whatever it is). Also, you might want to use Adobe Gamma (that's in control panel) to calibrate your monitor. |

Thank you for the help.
