[Affinity Photo imports and "Places" my color images as black and white]

Hi thanks....how do I go about converting the laptop image to RGB?

Sorry, I'm new to Affinity

[Affinity Photo imports and "Places" my color images as black and white]

Hi

Thanks for taking a look. Here is a screen recording of what I was trying to do. I've also attached the two files. My objective is to simulate the look of gmail on the laptop png file that I got from Pixabay. I guess it's a vector file. In any event, I'd like images I add to the laptop screen to be in color. Any suggestions you have would be greatly appreciated.

Hi

I don't know if this is a bug or not. But I noticed in working with AP 1.10 and 1.10.1 that when I use the "File>Place" feature to import a color photo into a project, it automatically gets converted to black and white. But, if I simply select File>Open, then the color photo will load just fine. How do I correct this? Did I inadvertently change a setting?

 Please advise as to how to correct.

Thanks,

Michael
