So, i have two images CMYK/8 bit to one image I set color #00ade3 to a shape, I then do the same to the other image (also same shape, just bigger) and it forces my color to #04ace3 instead, no way to set the color that I want.

To note that the color I'm trying to set does not receive any warning (gamma) I also noticed that if I set it using C(99) and Y(5) it works and receive the color.

So its not a real problem, I'm just wondering why two identical images behaves differently, maybe there is some setting I don't know?

edit: using Adobe Kuler I noticed something weird: I enter my color #00ADE3 and it gives a CMYK (100,24,0,11) which is a lot darker.

After above comments...

By using Hex values to set a color in a CMYK file, you are asking Photoshop to convert that RGB color to a CMYK color. So there can be a shift based upon color profiles.

If you input C and Y values, you aren't asking for any conversion, you are adjusting values directly.

That is why you are seeing a difference.

If you're working on CMYK files and color is critical, don't rely on RGB values for colors.
