The sploching would've been saving it as a *.jpg file. Try saving it as a *.png file next time- its a little larger, but png files are lossless. Jpg files are great for photos and things that doing have solid edges (the blochness is how jpg compresses large areas of colour or something like that). Also, how do you resize it? That may also be a problem :nods:

yes, you are absolutely right. I didn't realise the difference between saving into the different files until my friend taigen over at deviant told me that it was from saving it as jpeg instead of PNG. So now I know what NOT to do. Laughing And I left it in it's large form after I scanned it so it would be easier to color. (Even though I do have a "zoom" button in painter). And then I shrank it after I was done coloring. And then I saved it as Jpeg and that's when I noticed the mottling on it. So I thought it was from re-sizing it, but I now know it is from the file I saved it under. Thank you so much for all f your help Soozie. Much love. *hugs*

    See why I fought to have PNG format on Paper Demon? (well, actually, I asked and BR gave it to me...) PEOPLES! THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU SAVE AS JPG!!!!

      Yes, look what happens people. Let this be a lesson to all of us. I had to become a casualty in the war against Jpeg. Sad If I would have known then what I know now. *sigh* Well, at least I know now. Smile Thanks again sweetie. *hugs*
