Apologies if this is the wrong section, but I had a quick browse around and this seems like the most suitable place to ask.
I've recently been working more with photography, and have encountered some problems that I'm sure must just be silly mac-noob mistakes.
When I view images on my 5D, they look fine; high contrast, high saturation, great looking pictures.
I then import them to Lightroom or iPhoto, and they look the same. Put them into Photoshop (Proof setup as Macintosh RGB).
However, when I come to view them in Xee (been my default quick-image viewer since buying a Mac), they become desaturated and dull.
I uploaded a test photo to photobucket, and found the same (perhaps to do with Firefox, as it looks fine in Safari)
Here is the image uploaded straight from camera (resized in Photoshop)

And here is how I see it on two browsers (Firefox then Safari):
(The Firefox version is exactly as I see it in Xee)
I understand this isn't a massive issue; I can just use Preview for my pictures. But my worry is, if I'm editing pictures and then printing them, if I'm getting colour profiles wrong or anything like that.
Any information/suggestions would be massively appreciated.
Apologies for the lengthy post but I wanted to get everything down.
