Blurred lines unblur when uploaded

Postby Starlight Juliet » Thu Jan 12, 2012 5:18 am

When I upload an inkscape picture as a png to the etsy.com website the blurred lines I use for shading are 'unblurred' and become the original boxes and lines. Grr....anyone know what to do?

Welcome to InkscapeForum!

How did you convert to PNG? Did you use File menu > Export Bitmap?

In fact, the same thing happens when I open the file up in Paint.
