Changing Color of Picture using Picture Frame

General Questions
1

Hello folks of VC,

I want to import a couple of logos or motives but, unfortunately everytime I select the image in question as PNG the color of the image changes in VC. For instance in one image I have a red lion logo and when importing this image into VC, the color of the lion changes from red to blue. Idk why it also changes to blue and not for example to green but this is what is happening. In another image or logo I have a “componen” within the logo that has a color fade from green to blue. VC changes the blue part to yellow, so now the color fade is from green to yellow. Again, Idk why yellow is selected.

Can anyone help with that?
I would very much appreciate any help :slight_smile:

Try with bmp, jpg or maybe even a png with only 3 color channels?

Hey TSy,

thank you for your message. I resolved the issue indeed by exporting my originial image as 8bit PNG. Now everything works just as intended. :slight_smile:

Some additional information on that topic. If you have CorelDraw it is no problem to export your image as a 8bit PNG or else. If you do not have CorelDraw and rely on open source products like Inkscape. Then you probably also need Gimp to convert the image into the needed image format.
