HELLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

Im trying to take a screen sot of my program using

SaveBuffer(FrontBuffer(),"screenshot.bmp")

but when i open the created bitmap the back ground which was white

CLSCOLOR 255,255,255

has changed to

248,255,248

which means it wont print with out a grey back ground that looks crap(Oh and eats ink like a sob)

Help

There are no buffers in BlitzMax so I assume you are in the wrong board.

Sounds like a color depth problem. I would check that white drawn to the buffer is actually white before you save it. Also, try forcing a depth of 32 bit in your Graphics command.
