I'm not sure, but this sounds like they are simply not importing them correctly. Maybe they misinterpet the Alpha and it makes the color fade and when whatever editing suite they use fills the transparency, colors wash out. Apart from that - Targas will always use whatever default Gamma your program has and directly encode the skewed color info, which in a computer environment is anything from 1.6 to 2.2 or in case of 3D programs, the Gamma you define in the render settings. Beyond that the format is completely agnostic of color profiles or additional calibration meta data. Maybe you simply mis-tweaked you monitor? Mylenium
