Have you noticed that when you upload a header image to blogger, your nice white background turns to a manky shade of grey? The same probably happens when you upload pictures with a white background to your sidebar or in your actual blog posts. Luckily it's really easy to fix. The problem is that Google is 'auto enhancing' your images (although for the most part, it actually makes pictures look worse rather than better) and can mess up the colours on your pictures. To stop this from happening here's what you do:

The Fix
1. Go to Google Plus settings here
2. Towards the bottom of the page find 'auto enhance'
3. Uncheck the box that says 'automatically enhance new pictures'

It's a simple as that! You'll need to re-upload a clean copy of any headers/ images that have a grey background-everything should now upload true to colour and without the annoying grey cast.
