Does it tick anyone else off that the colors in Photoshop aren’t the same as when it’s in Dreamweaver? The tint is always a little off…

Does this happen to anyone else or is it just me?

My colours are fine (default settings). Try turning off all the guides in dreamweaver. They can give the appearance of colour change…

Otherwise, got me beat.

in PS, go to Edit\>Color Settings… and choose ‘color management off’.  
that should solve it.
