: Photoshop PNG problem I'm trying to use a PNG but when I open it in Photoshop it looks wrong. This is the original image This is how it looks in Photoshop Any idea of how to make it look

Thanks for the help, I found a solution, I used pixlr.com to re-save the image, apparently the PNG is using indexed colors and an alpha palette rather than using a full alpha mask

The name of the layer is "index", that means that the image now is in the indexed color mode, you should switch it to RGB mode.

So go to Image -> Mode -> RGB color.

Or else, try opening the PNG as a smart object (File -> Open as Smart Object) , and see if it'll be in RGB color mode.

I hope that this'll help you.
