The long-awaited Mozilla Firefox 3 for Mac and Windows, which emerged from beta at 10AM Pacific today, is the latest web browser to support the colour managed display of photos with embedded ICC profiles. That's the good news. The bad news is it's turned off by default. Here's how to turn it on.

thanks for that i now have colour profiles turned on, the second method is so eay even i could do it:
 
Safari on the mac is colour managed it seems if you view the sample images from the page you get the seamless transition anyway..

Go Safari.....

Safari only colour manages images with a profile embedded, whereas Firefox tries it for everything except plugins (Flash etc.).

Firefox color corrects everything except plugins (plugins need to correct themselves!) Images without a profile are treated as sRGB, css colors are treated as sRGB).

I should have said it looks like it colour manages... the samples posted were fine thats all I have to go by..

Aside from the colour managing thingy (?) can anyone tell me if there is an advantage to FF over my native Safari ... :suspect:

Always used FF before going Mac and now find Safari cuts it well enough for me ... :shrug:
