Losing Colour

I use Camera RAW 6.0 for RAW conversions and edit with CS5. When I upload a picture to Flickr or resize it with an outside program my pictures come out looking desaturated. Mainly losing red. CS5 is set to sRGB. If I open the picture in CS5 again, it still is missing the colour. This tells me that there is information being lost, not just being displayed differently.

I am not really great at figuring this kind of stuff out. I would like a way to keep the colours the way they are supposed to be.

Example of the colour differences:

The two resized pictures have lost the colour, the other two are fine.

The colour space in your PS Color Settings is largely irrelevant - the profile is set in ACR. You can check the profile of your images in PS by turning this on.

It also sounds like you're saving the images without the ICC profile embedded. Check that.

Actually, this tells me your PS color settings are not ideal:
Tick the "missing profiles" box.
