Why do the pictures and colors on my screen look awful?

Jackson Web Frequently Asked Questions
Your video is probably set to either 16-colors or 256-colors. We designed our pictures with 16-bit or 24-bit color in mind (64 thousand or 16.7 million colors), so when your browser has to squeeze this down to 256-colors, effects called dithering and banding occur. This makes the pictures have dots all over them, or very noticeable bands of color, whereas it should be a smooth gradient of color. See similar questions...

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions
WinImages is an aspect-correct program. It reads the DPI (dots-per-inch) settings from an image file and uses them to set the ratio of width to height for display. Some programs do not set these values in the image file correctly, and as a result, the image will appear distorted. The solution is to select "Change Image Info" from the menus and edit the DPI setting. If you want the change to be permanent, you'll need to re-save the image. See similar questions...
