<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I believe I have a mismatch with my colors on <a href="http://www.askaboutprojects.com/" rel="nofollow">my stackexchange site</a>.</p>
<p>I have designed my logo with Photoshop using the web color 0099ff, and configured my stackexchange to use the same color 0099ff as 'highlight' color.</p>
<p>Though, it looks to me like there is a mismatch when looking at the site.</p>
<p>Here is a snapshot and I believe there is a different blue in the logo (left) and the button (right):

<p>Also, when looking at this snapshot with Photoshop, and checking the color again, Photoshop sees a different color: 2683fc for the logo blue, and 0098ff for the highlighted 'Questions' button.</p>
<p>What gives?
This problem has been bugging me for a while. It's quite mysterious to me.
Would really appreciate some help.</p>
