Photoshop CC 2018 Colors Change When Files Saved

Can someone help me fix my colors? For some reason when I have an image that looks like ^this, for example, it saves like ^^this. And somehow those colors in the links aren't nearly as vibrant as the colors shown on my computer screen. But then the colors shown on the previews are the same as my saved files. It's just the imgur links that are less vibrant...

Check the color profile. Convert to sRGB and save out a new copy.

 

Adobe RGB or ProPhoto both require full color management to display correctly. Photoshop does that, but many other applications don't. In addition, some websites will strip the color profile when uploading the file, which will break color management even if the web browser does it.

 

An sRGB file will display roughly right in almost all scenarios. Not entirely right, but usually close enough.
