Here's a little tip, save the image file in .png instead of .jpeg, because .jpeg files are compressed therefore losing some of the image's colors.

If you don't believe me, look at it yourself. Zoom in 8x to any picture which is saved as .jpeg and compare it with one saved as .png.

.jpeg has lower quality than .png because it is compressed to a smaller file every time it is saved.

that's only if you add compression to the .jpg as you are saving it. in most programs you will have an option to set the compression level and if you leave it at 0 then there will be no loss in quality. however .png does have the ability to retain transparency which might be of use.

You mean u can't have transparent files if it is .png? But I've made transparent images with .png lots of times.

Thanks for the info on .jpg, BTW.

JPEG does not support transparency. PNG and GIF both support it.
