Greetings, I did a search both here, on reddit, and the internet as a whole. I found one post on reddit, and replied to it, but it was from 2 years ago and it didnt have any replies. I’m having issues with faded images being uploaded to Anki. I’m using the Anki desktop version i downloaded on 30 Nov 2021 (download file name is anki-2.1.49-windows) Here is my current procedure:
Use Screnpreso to take image, CTRL+V into anki desktop app, image looks like crap. Here is an example.
Original snipped image:
what it looks like in Anki:
Also in the mobile app the pictures are too light/faded to really see.
Any ideas? I tried to install a few add ons, and remove them… didn’t work. Thanks!
Thats weird, in the preview box it was showing. Thank you though… here is what it looks like:
I went to preferences and saw the option you mentioend… it was NOT checked… I so I checked it… closed Anki and reopened it. This did not fix the issue… it still is faded for some strange reason. ANy other ideas? Thanks btw!
All, I think screenpreso is the issue. I just used the built in windows snipping tool, and it worked just fine. I’ll play around with screenpreso’s settings and see if I can find the issue. I’ll reply soon enough.
Okay so the issue is with screenpreso I guess. I switched screenpreso to default to jpgs, and when i paste the image is just as it should be. Additionally, I’m finding the jpg is smaller (byte wise) which is awkaward, I though PNG had the superior compression … but i was wrong!
