Uploading pics

[Guest Dens]

I can't seem to upload a pic and keep the colour its probably something stupid i am doing i just have no clue just wondering if there is an easy way to do it or not.

 

Thanks

pictures dont really come in colors, they come in tiles, so first right click and left click the tiles u want to use in the pic. Then go to picture to map and it will layout in those tiles

If you are talking about the 'Picture to map' feature, then as Hate said, this only converts a picture into a black-and-white kind of image, with tiles representing pixels.

If you want to include an actual picture in your map, you want to use LVZ's.

 

Choose the LVZ tab just above the tileset, right-click in the empty area, and select Add Image

 

Follow the instructions and it will add the image file in your map. See tutorials on LVZ's in the tech support or development forum for how to make them work in your zone. You can draw with these images just like any tile with tools like pencil and line.

As you'll see, these can also be animated.

If you are talking about uploading pics on the forum however... then the bad color is just because the preview shown is resized; click on the ugly-colored pic and it will open it fullsize with the right colors.
