What is the different?

Hi, Guys!

I want to ask you something, maybe some one knows the answer for it.
I painted a simple picture with blue sky, and I painted it with the color to color thing (like the title bar in any window that is colored from blue to lighter blue)
well, I painted it from blue to lighter blue for the sky.
now, when I load it to VB it's not like the original picture, it does besides color to color and between there are many versions of the colors it's just a few versions of the colors.
To understand this what I tried to explain open any
Photoshop or Paintshop and do a simple picture that has been painted from color to color and load it into the VB. see what it does...
Please help...

Thank you, anyway.
Arie.

What screen mode are you running in?

You mean, 800x600? 24 bits? what?
explain...

Screen mode is a combination of colour depth (24bit) and resolution (800x600):

800x600x24 in shorthand

PS: Did you mean the gradient tool?

It's exactly what I ment. Do you know why it's like this?
maybe VB have a bad picture shower?

What file format are you saving the image as? I put a 24-bit picture into VB and it was fine.

in PSD!
Every file format is in 24bits, I guess.
But I'm sure of the BMP, it surly 24bits.
I don't know what's wrong!!!

Strange.

Anyway, not every file format has to be 24-bit. JPEG format should have worked
