I have been designing web pages for a while now uisng a specific host's builder. I am a graphic designer and have been working with vector and bitmap graphics for quite some time. I am coming up on a problem for which I can't seem to find an answer and I'm hoping that someone can give me a resolution.
I am exporting a .jpeg graphic. I am using a background which includes a web safe color (#6699CC) that is the same color as my web page's background. When I upload the graphic, it continually puts a white "box" or lines around the entire perimeter of the graphic and I cannot for the life of me get rid of it. Will this always happen with .jpeg graphic imports?
As many pages as I've ever designed and all the graphics that I've ever used online, this is the first time that I can remember this occurring. I feel certain that I have placed graphics on my pages in the past using this "fake transparent" technique of same color backgrounds but I don't remember coming up on this problem before. I am using Corel Paint for graphics editing and export. I tried using a .gif export too but it just won't give me the graphic clarity I need and the graphic that I have "hanging" off the edge of the banner has a white line around it as well in this format.
I have searched the internet for an entire day and can't seem to find my answer. I'm sure I'm just looking in the wrong place. Any and all help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Peggy
