Can someone help me please?

So here's the situation:
I used a Vintage tutorial for my picture and it looked awesome when it was done-- the colors, the quality, everything.

But then when i saved it as a jpg file it looked UGLY stubborn.gif . I tried using "save for web" but it doesn't help. The colors that are supposedly blue became some shade of purplish redish.

I tried looking for any tutorials for this but 0 gud results.
Please. Photoshop experts anybody? please help me i need to know how to save without losing ANYTHING at all.

pls and thanks much ^-^ _smile.gif

O_o this has never happened to me before... are you using Imageready and making an animation? To keep your quality, save it as a Photoshop file. To upload it, just click File > Save as > select .jpg. It should retain most of the image quality.

That's a different question entirely!

Photobucket and Myspace generally resize and compress images that are either too large in dimension and/or file size. You may be losing your colors and quality due to that.

If you want your images to reflect what you saved in Photoshop, I'd suggest uploading to a host that doesn't compress images, although that still won't help when uploading to Myspace.
