Confused. You should still understand how things work. All depends on the format of the image you paste **into**. Paste (or open-as-layers is the same) a RGB image into a greyscale image and the pasted in layer takes the properties of the greyscale image. Often seen in the worst senario, a RGB image added to a limited colour, indexed image and the user wonders why the colours are screwed up. -- rich404 (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

Can you upload / E-mail the problematic files? Thanks, but somehow, it's sorted itself out. I've done it like this before, with no problems, so I don't know what the problem was. Closed Gimp down, and started again, and it was fine.

I created a png file, so the background is transparent. I then opened another file, a jpg, to paste the png onto it. The problem is, it's in greyscale, when the original is in colour. What's happened, and how do I solve it. -- rob1955 (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
