Hi Everyone. I've got a really annoying problem at the moment using Macromedia Fireworks (4). I've set the background / canvas colour of the logo that I'm working on to transparent. When I import it into Dreamweaver it looks OK but when I upload it there is a very slight change in colour around what was the original canvas. Even if I change the canvas colour to white and make sure the Webpage color is White there is still a subtle change of colour. My Webpage is white but I end up with a very slightly 'off white' rectangle around the jpeg that I've imported.Very Wierd!! Has anyone got any ideas whats going on. Its driving me mad Many Thanks.

Without seeing the image I'm just guessing here but if your image is a .jpg, try saving it as a .gif and see if that helps.

I had the same problem with some of my images as well. As sdarken said changing the file to .gif worked for mine.

Check out this link, and just scan through the colours. Maybe you have a number or two off when you specified the white, so you're getting an off white instead? Hypes Color Specifier: http://users.rcn.com/giant.interport/COLOR/1ColorSpecifier.html

My guess is: The color picker in Dreamweaver doesn't pick the exact color. It picks a web safe color that is close to the original. This could be the root of your problem.

The jpeg compression methodology itself will do that to you ... remapping color hues to compress the file. There is no need to blame any specific software  GIF is one solution; saving as a higher-quality jpeg (less lossy) is the other.
