However it appears the image loads with the incorrect colour scheme/pallette into the Gfx Mill ? How does one load the jpg correctly in this manner? I have attached a screenshot of the original jpg and one of the jpg loaded into Gfx Mill via http. Is there a function/property I am not setting correctly ? Help! :w00t: Dunk attached the following image(s):

You can make sure by loading the same file locally and compare it. I guess that you have enabled color management in the BitmapViewer and that's why it displays the image differently than IrfanView. If you do not want to use color management, you should disable it. To get more information about this, take a look into this article: Displaying Images with Color Management If you need any information about color management, check out other articles in the Color Management section.

It will increase repainting speed.
