: Antialiasing or blurring on Photoshop creates a pale edge between different blocks of colour I'm working on some illustrations which are cartoon-style, so thick black lines with blocks of colour

I'm working on some illustrations which are cartoon-style, so thick black lines with blocks of colour filling them in. I've been colouring the images in a non-anti-aliased document to ensure absolutely sharp fills within the lines. However, when I then resize or slightly blur the image to subsequently anti-alias the edges, the borders between each area of colour (including where the black lines separate the colours) have a very thin, grey border separating them. Example below:


Same effect happens with blur and with any type of resampling when resizing. Image has been flattened. Anyone got any ideas why this is happening, and how to stop it?

Looks to me like you're working in CMYK with a K-only black. Don't.

CMYK is mostly an output space—work in RGB whenever possible. If you absolutely insist on working in CMYK at least use a rich black (Adding CMY components to your black up to your target output device's total ink limit.)
