When I imported an image I created in Photoshop CS 3 into Flash CS 3, the colors always used to change. They were nice and bright in Photoshop, but flat and washed-out in Flash.

To stop this, in Photoshop chage the RGB color profile to Monitor RGB. Images created and saved with this profile look the same in Photoshop and Flash.
You can change the Photoshop color profile under Edit > Color Settings…
