I have made a PSD that I am trying to save. It saves fine, but the image is not as bright as it is in the PSD format, it is a lot duller. I have tried 24bit BMP (my target format), 32bit BMP and PNG file. They all seem dull or slightly darker than the PSD file. How can I change this? The PSD is 1024x768, RGB/8 if that helps.

Problem solved.

First, changed mode to 16bit from 8bit. Then used the "Save for the Web" option.

I'm not sure how I got it to 24bit Bitmap, Photoshop does not let you save in this format for the colors I was using. I ended up using Fireworks to save as the BMP, obviously it doesn't care as much.

Hopefully soon you will get to see this image, its not up to me!
