Photoshop colour problem
When i save my photoshop images in any format (jepg, png) they come out a tad less saturated and darker than the more richer colours in photoshop. I have tried evrything. Also when i got to view ->proof setup-> Monitor RGB. it shows what it would look like when i save it. So it shows the desaturated and darker version. So it's a bit like a preview. Here is some pics to show you what i mean:

What i see in Photoshop:


What i see in windows/fax viewer after saving it:


see the difference?

any help will be really appreciated. it is very frustrating

Your example has a sRGB color space. Set your color space to Adobe RGB and set it to convert to the working space. It should then save as Adobe RGB and the colors are a little richer.

Unless your copy of Photoshop fell off a truck and you just intend to dabble you should read up on color management. This shows the Photoshop menus and tells you how to use them: http://www.computer-darkroom.com/ps10_colour/ps10_1.htm
