Common Images Problems
Diagnose the issue, then fix it with the right tool.
PNG Shows White Background Instead of Transparent
A PNG file that should have a transparent background is showing white or a colored background when opened or used on a website.
Screenshots Look Blurry on Retina / HiDPI Displays
Screenshots you take appear blurry or low-resolution when viewed on a Retina Mac, 4K monitor, or HiDPI display.
Image Colors Look Different When Printed vs. On Screen
Your photo or design looks correct on screen but prints with different, washed-out, or shifted colors.
Image Looks Pixelated or Blurry After Resizing
Your image becomes blurry, pixelated, or jaggy after you make it larger or change its dimensions.
Image Appears Different Colors on Different Screens
An image looks correct on one monitor but appears too warm, too cool, washed out, or oversaturated on another screen or device.
HEIC Photos Not Opening on Windows 10 or 11
iPhone HEIC photos show as unsupported or unknown file type on Windows 10 or Windows 11.
WebP Image Not Showing in Email
A WebP image attached to or embedded in an email appears broken, as a download link, or does not display at all in the recipient's email client.
Image Resolution Too Low for Printing
Your image looks fine on screen but prints blurry, pixelated, or low quality — the resolution is not high enough for print.
JPG Image Loses Quality Every Time It Is Saved
Re-saving a JPG repeatedly causes the image to degrade with each save — visible as increasing blurriness and compression artefacts.
GIF File Not Animating — Shows as a Static Image
An animated GIF displays as a single still frame instead of playing the animation.
PNG File Is Too Large for a Website
Your PNG image is slowing down your website because it is too large — PNG files for photographs are often 5–20× larger than they need to be.

Your image file exceeds the attachment size limit for Gmail, Outlook, or another email client.
Image Has Wrong Colors After Converting
Colors look washed out, shifted, or completely different after converting an image from one format to another.

When converting an image with a transparent background (PNG) to JPG, the transparency is replaced by a white or coloured background.
Image Looks Blurry or Pixelated After Upload
Your image appears blurry, soft, or lower resolution after uploading to a website, social media, or app.
