Hi Alain,

I tried what you described, and here are my findings:

1. When I used Squeak 3.4 with color depth 16 to create a BMP
or a JPEG file, white was indeed replaced by a very light gray.

2. When I changed the display depth of Squeak to  32
(you do this with world menu >appearance > set display depth)
and repeated the experiment, I found that white remains white.

Can you please check this?

So I think that this is a conversion problem.

Greetings, Boris
