Come on natty, You have come this far. There is always a fix, you just need to find it.

simply take away the dark background and replace it with a lighter one.

So I'm expected to blindly balance the colours of the image so that both normal-sighted and colourblind people won't have any problems with it. Sorry but that's impossible to do.

jpg compression has nothing to do with the current problem of the map. the colours are washed out even on the png.

while i'm not fond of how strong the colours are now, i'm pretty sure most people will prefer it over the old version:

Ok, set the compression to 80. What about the other settings? Subsampling, DCT method, Smoothing, optimization? I have no idea which settings lack uses.
thenobodies80 wrote:You ask yourself about too many options. Don't worry about them, listen to me. Just set quality to 80%.

natty_dread wrote:Actually I think the new version looks like crap. The colours are horribly bright and look like someone vomited on my screen.
So maybe you should just take this map offline until I have the time to redraw it properly.

that's right, everybody except you uses cheap laptop monitors.
especially tnb80. i heard that when he became a foundry foreman he inherited a crappy 12 inch, IBM 5151 monochrome monitor. lack has been keeping it since 1984 and has passed it from generation to generation. it still has some banana peels on it from when andy used to have it.
