Happy day everyone! Would anyone know please, why when I choose "Save for Web" in Photoshop CS2 to create a JPEG, my images are becoming MUCH darker than they appear when I'm working on them. I did find that messing around with Color Settings would reproduce the dark look I get when I try to save it for the web, if I set it to "Monitor Color" instead of North American General Purpose 2.

I didn't always have this issue, probably just since I upgraded to CS2. Is there a setting that I need to change? I'm totally stupid about the color management features and have never messed with them.

Thanks for any guidance. I don't even know where to read to solve it.
