Background image looks greenish

Mozilla browser

[T Suresh Babu]

I Used background images for the top nav bar of my web page.
In mozilla the cells having the background image looks greenish-stripes instead of blue-stripes (original color)

How can we fix this.
Its a GIF file.
Any problem with the gif or mozilla browser.

It looks well in all other browsers (IE,NS,Opera)

Are you using a 256-colour display? If yes, you are likely to see colour alterations in images, and they might differ from browser to browser.

No, Iam not using 256 colors. Color settings is 16million colors windows NT m/c.

Color deviation occurs only in Mozilla for background images only, not for other images.

I've seen similar color shifts with background images - for some unknown reason, background images are not rendered by the same method as foreground images.

If this is important to your page (and if Moz is an important enough browser) you may want to re-think the color palette and try for web safe colors only.

But if it were me, I would forget about it. The color variance probably doesn't appear on all operating systems and graphics cards, even if they all are using Moz. And the Mozilla browser is usually a very small slice of total traffic.

We still have a very imperfect medium here.
