I have been reading and reading and reading posts and answers on colorspace and I am only more and more confused.
I understand that my biggest concern is to have my lightroom image match my print image. BUT... I have to display my website and I have to proof for clients. When I do this everything is flat and looks like an un-processed raw image. NOT something I want ANYONE to see. I realize that IE and firefox/safari play a role in things too and I realize I can't control other monitors... I just want to know that when I upload for a client or to flickr that I can expect that another calibrated monitor is going to see a good clean image. As it is, they aren't! They're seeing the same crappy image I see when I look at it through windows and not photoshop/lightroom. I WANT TO CONTROL MY OUTPUT. Is that unreasonable? I am old, set in my ways and stubborn... Maybe that's why I can't wrap my brain around this? Someone please break it down to idiot level for me?
 
show your proofs in sRGB and tell your clients that this is the colour space you are using. It's late here so I'm off to bed but I'm sure others can expand on this, but this is my basic advice for now.
 
You have total control over your export in the Export menu. Set the colour space to sRGB and you will have no problems!
 
Problem is, when I export to sRGB I am losing a lot and it doesn't look the same. Looks more like a flat raw image!
