Hello everyone,
I need some help here. I am creating some graphics in photoshop for a website. I view proof setup for windows and macintosh and my colors look fiine. However, when viewing in aol, the colors look washed out and if theres any gradiants, they show sharp contrasting lines where there should be smooth blends. ANy fix to this problem? THanks for any help, and have a great night.
Anthony

If I remember correctly from my days with AOL, the internal AOL browser converts all graphics to a *.art format -- what AOL terms "compressed graphics". There is a way to revert to the "real" format within the AOL web preferences by unchecking a box next to something about "Use compressed graphics".

Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do on a development end to force the AOL browser to use your original format. It's an individual preference thing over which you have no control.

Good luck,
Kevin
