    My pc has started having problem with saving images.
    it as fine before i re installed windows xp pro sp2 .
    the problem is.. when i save an image , it saves it as a darker colour..
    but when i open that image in photoshop or paint.net , it shows the correct colour.but when i take a screenshot of my desktop , it shows the dark image on paint.net/photoshop,
    look at my pictures :

    Real image : colour code : 1e1e1e

    [​IMG]

    when saved with paint.net or photoshop : colour code : same

    [​IMG]

    now as you can see both images are same , i just replaced the pink colour with green , but if u will see them closely , their colour will be different..
    the green one will be darker..ie . colour code will be 1d1d1d or something like that.
    but if u will open it with photoshop , u will find that colours are same..
    now look at this screenshot.

    [​IMG]

    can someone please tell me whats the problem??

    Maybe it has something to do with your channels or color settings in Photoshop?

    ok i tried the website for calibration , i tried adobe gamma too..
    but still my colours are not same for saved files.


    edited : okay wait.. let me try saving in gif format.. ok it worked..but still i need png format becuz gif is making the file size 1 kb.. while png is 150 bytes ..


    PS :
    hhhh this is not adobe's bug , it occurs with MS paint and Paint.net too :mad:

    Sorry I forgot about this thread. Here's some possible solutions, though I haven't tried them out:
