 Ron's expression is pretty much my reaction when I opened up a sprite sheet I was working on and found out that I accidentally saved it as a GIF File, IRREVERSIBALLY changing the colors. Some bad things were said, both in English and Spanish (Something I don't do often) and was ready to take it out on the nearest thing to me, but I soothed down, this picture was actually a pretty good outlet for that. Well, atleast this picture came out of it, which is good I guess. Sorry for the sketchy pics, I will be submitting some serious KP pics in the near future ^^; |

Hey the pic is cool man though that does suck on the sprite sheet. Never messed with those so stunned to hear a different file type save would do that much damage.

Oh yeah, it's really important, as an example...  Saved as a PNG File, crisp and clear...  Saved as a JPG FIle, some slight color distortion and some grainy textures...  Saved as a GIF File, some heavy distortion and massive snowstorm-like texture, this is the file I accidentally save it as....  Saved as a Monochrome BMP File, say goodbye to your colors! It's nothing a little Elbow Grease can't fix, in my case it was worse because the picture had more than three colors (it was like almost 14 I think), making seem like a Skittles Factory exploded all over it. But thanks for the comments on the pic! |

BMP shouldn't take away colors. Are you sure you aren't saving it under "Monochrome Bitmap"? That's probably what's taking away the colors. "24-bit Bitmap" is the default on my Microsoft Paint program.

yeah, ditto on DanMat - monochrome takes away the colors and makes it black and white.
Really sorry about your sprite sheet! You'll probably need to painstakingly put it back together!

Once upon a time ...
instead of entering the command:
copy c:prog.c a:prog.c
I typed in
copy a:prog.c c:prog.c
and lost an entire days programming by copying my back up over my current work ...
As you can see ... I still haven't forgotten.
Fortuneately, most of the work involved was in figuring out what I needed to do - and I'd already done that ... so I just had to put the code back in ...
Still ... I just hate doing things like that ...

Argh! I hate when stuff like that happens! But you're right, at least you came out of it with an awesome drawing! Man, I love how you can just whip up a drawing in MS Paint. That program hates me  |

Huh, really? MS Paint likes me... well, at least more than Paint Shop Pro does.
