Windows XP Colour

[Roy C]

After processing an image in Photoshop and sending to the web (various sites) the colours look just the same on the web as in PS. But when I view the images with the widows picture viewer on the pc they are way out and in general over-saturated. Is there a way of colour managing the windows viewer?
Thanks in advance.

Have you considered using another viewer?

IrfanView is pretty lightweight in terms of memory overheads and size, and is a really good reviewing and basic editing programme. You can also apply colour management to it.

The bonus is that it's free!

The short answer is no. Windows has it's own ghastly colour space.

Thanks for that 'Sir' Kev . As I thought but wondered if I had missed something.
