On some computers these logo examples have horrible boxes around letter, shapes etc. ranging on shade from pink to purple and green. I seem to have done something wrong when making them all, as this has happened in the past. I use jasc's PSP v7 for graphics and seems to be OK on my resolution/OS/browser/colour settings but when I come on different computers it looks completely different.

I've tried testing by changing my settings but nothing looks as bad as it does on the college computer I'm on right now (display settings disabled but I'm guessing a low colour setting).

Can someone give me some advice on how to avoid this (if any of you see it)? (especially ince this doesnt show up on my computer even when settings changed!).

Well your images look different when I set my monitor to 256 colors. But not at all bad. The only thing I can think of right now is something like AOL's image compression. Maybe other proxy servers use similar compression software.

I think it's your graphics program. I see boxes or lines of pale colors in the images, and the colors are actually there in the image file.

Does the program you use do any export optimzation? If so, turn it off.

Possibly you can export as a true color .png
OR
Maybe your contrast settings are wrong, or maybe your video adapter is broken or you may have the wrong driver installed

or you mave have the wrong refresh rate (hz) settings selected.

or your color tube in your monitor maybe broken

or if you are using a TFT monitor I've heard they aren't as good for graphics as CRT
