When you have a colour using a 0..255 range, you normally have to assume
that it's in the sRGB colour space.
The colour picker from Photoshop do work in the sRGB colour space.
So, you should use the srgb keyword.
Don't forget to use assumed_gamma 1 in your global_settings.
pigment{ srgb Picked_Colour/255 }
