== Color loss ==

Hi. When re-uploading large images, I've noticed that sometimes the images lose it's color. A good example is where I reverted the [[:File:Nintendo.png|Nintendo logo]] to a larger version, but once I had done so, the color was completely washed out. However, the [http://www.mariowiki.com/images/a/ae/Nintendo.png full view] of the image is perfectly fine. What's up with that? Please help because I tried to revert the Nintendo logo back to the smaller version, hoping that the color will return to normal, but it didn't.

Okay, it's good that yours works But is it safe to revert it to the larger one? If not, I'm sure the smaller one will do for now.
