I have never noticed this before, so if someone could give me some feedback that would be awesome.
I was doing a save for web of a photograph and I noticed that the saved picture had MORE contrast than it did right before I saved it (when it was still open in photshop). My friend noticed it too. What is that about?  |

What file format did you use to save your image? |

There are many different images for the "save for web" option. Depending on your settings, it is entirely possible that the contrast was raised, especially if you are saving as a gif with limited colors. play with the settings on the right hand side of the "save for web" palette. You can also coompare different settings by selecting the "2 up " and 4 up" option tabs at the top of the box.

When saving images that you want to keep as photographs, I would highly recommend using JPEG format.
There are tons of various image formats out there and each one does something different. And some do certain jobs better than others.
IE PNG are good for transparancies, GIF for animations, JPEG for high quality photos, etc.
Because of this, they DO sometimes change your image around (optimising and such..).
Here's a good page that explains the major and most common formats and what they do:
