Why is Flickr spoiling the colour of my images?

I was really pleased with how some panorama images came out from a recent trip to Dorset. When I uploaded them in High Quality to my Facebook page, they came out great. Just how they look in LR4. But when I upload them on to Flickr or 500px, the colours are way off? Could it be because they were initially bracketed photos which I then put through Photomatix Pro before stitching together? Never had this before...

Its not just that image either, another one came out exactly the same? Any idea why?

we can't see the flickr version as it's 'private'
 
Yup... definitely a colour space issue. The same image displays properly in IE9, badly in Chrome.

If I had £1 for every colour space issue.......... ;)
 
Well. Firstly, apologies for getting the colour space wrong. Thought it was in sRGB. Secondly, I'd never have thought it was Chrome causing the issue. Just checked in Firefox and you're right, they are the same. Feel a bit daft now!

I've recently switched to Chrome and quite like it now. I'll try changing the colour spaces to sRGB and see what difference it makes.

Thanks for the replies.
