Title: WB Backdrops displays funny
Post by: punkyclown on May 19, 2013, 02:34:17 AM

Hi, I am running OS 3.9 and when I try to load an .iff as a backdrop on my Workbench the color inverts, so it looks like the image when you open a requester window, with inverted color.  How can I get it to display the correct palette?
Thank you

My image is fine when dispalyed in a viewer, but when it Loads in WB the colors look like the way an image looks when you go to save it, when the save window opens the colors of the image change and that's exactly the way the image looks like when it loads in WB, the colors invert, like that have the opposite palette, like a negative..

Thanks

You need to open the image in a program such as Art Department Pro, ImageFX or HamLab+ and match the images palette to your workbench palette. For best results you can use Rebels Palette. If you use that Palette most icons and images will look good. I just use Hamlab+ even though its old.
