005. Updating Images / Refs

Posted 4 months, 2 days ago by udachox

I was recently made aware of a funny little quirk in Clip Studio Paint when using macOS by a friend of mine. Essentially, I've been saving my art with the wrong color settings, thus leading to artwork that's desaturated upon export and it can worsen each time I copy/paste the image elsewhere. This had lead to some of my characters being super desaturated in areas like their skintone, which has bothered me for a while, but I never knew how to fix it... until now!

Anyway, all active characters are going to have some images updated with this export method. This will only be done with their current references and any major images (e.g. icons, profile decor). No notifications should be sent out as I'm just updating the images rather than uploading new ones. This announcement is mostly if you're wondering why some characters look brighter or if you're intending to draw my characters anytime soon. 

For more in-depth information about this quirk in CSP, see this Tumblr post by sabertoothwalrus. You should check your drawing program for a setting like this anyway, even if you're using a Windows OS or another drawing app like Procreate. Knowing about this is a literal lifesaver, me and some friends have been freaking out for the past 10 minutes over the stark difference in Uda's colors when she's exported properly.
