Do browsers use the color profile for displaying the image? If so, wouldn't this affect the appearance of the image?



Some do, some don't. In most cases it will end up being converted to sRGB, so you're better off doing that conversion yourself.


There is a test to check if your browsers support it. http://www.color.org/version4html.xalter Chrome has no support at all, which is annoying really.


Chrome seems to support that, based on latest Chrome on mac.


Chrome 15 on OSX Lion here. Doesn't work at all.


Latest chrome on windows 7 here doesn't.


Safari, Firefox, Opera and even IE uses and adheres to ICC profiles in images. No idea what Chrome or other browsers do.
