| Are you running in 16 bit colour instead of 32 bit colour? |

| They didnt help beaker but ta for the link to me own post M8 ;) Alien 32 or 16 didnt know you could change that????? What dif it gonna make and how |

| What dif it gonna make and how 16 bit color will give you 16,777,216 colors, while 16 bit color will give you only 65,536colors. (true color vs. high color) in 16 bit mode you only have 16 shades of each color, vs. 256 in 32 bit color... And since you still use the color addressing as 255,255,255, yopu are going to get 'rounding' in 16 bit, and the colors often won't be exactly what you expect... You need 32 bit to accurately display a color in 255,255,255 format... |
