I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR SOME TIME. WHENEVER I CLEAN UP AN IMAGE WITH PAINT OR PENCIL, I SAVE AS JPEG OR PSD. WHEN I RE-OPEN THE IMAGE AFTER A FEW WEEKS, THE EDGES ARE FURRY AND HAVE LOST THEIR SHARP EDGE. IT DOES NOT SEEM TO MATTER WHAT THE RESOLUTION OF THE GRAPHIC IS. SO I CLEAN UP THE IMAGE AGAIN AND SAVE IT. SOMETIMES IF I RE-OPEN THE IMAGE WITHIN A FEW DAYS IT IS OK. IF IT IS LEFT FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS, THE PROBLEM RETURNS. THE DETERIORATION OF THE IMAGE SEEMS TO BE PROGRESSIVE. IF I TURN UP THE LIGHTING ON THE IMAGE, THERE WILL BE AREAS WHERE THE COLOR HAS ALL BUT GONE. ANY SUGGESTIONS?
