Yikes! In terms of switching from Photoshop to Illustrator, Color Management

(being turned on by default in Photoshop) is usually the culprit. (Likewise

when going from Photoshop to ImageReady. I.R. doesn't show a calibrated

image by default.)


Color Management is a whole topic unto itself best suited for another list.


BUT! In terms of moving that content to Flash, you'd be better off disabling

color management in both Photoshop and Illustrator. (Color management on the

web is still a ways off. SVG and PNG can support it but they ain't ready for

prime time yet.)
