Hello guys!

I'm using Sony Vegas Pro 13 and have an irritating problem - I want to edit some cool Sony Vegas Pro template but when I replace an existing image with my own PNG it loses colors (it becomes all BLUE), please check below:

I know there is solution for that but simply can't figure it out, can you please help me? Thanks in advance!

You have your Cursor over the area that your haven't included in your ScreenGrab. I'd like to see exactly what I could help you with. Maybe others can?

I agree with Grazie: how about a great deal more information. What is the source of the image? What do you mean when your say "I want to edit some cool Sony Vegas Pro template?" What template do you refer too? Can you give us an idea of work-flow? In other words, your process from start (bright yellow) to finish (blue.)

In your screenshot from your Vegas GUI I see you have a special compositing mode selected on various video tracks. That could cause your problem.

I agree Marco. Gentlemen, put on the Coffee. It's gonna be a bumpy night.

Without all the herky-jerky stuff potentially present on the tracks above the .PNG track, the effect looks very much like the "invert" effect.

Hello guys, thanks for your answers so far!

To make it easier to understand can you please download Sony Vegas template I want to edit and in Project media try to replace it's original LOGO with my PNG picture PRINCESS from above in order to see where is the problem and how to solve "invert" effect?

It will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

It's right as john_dennis said:

In Track # 11 "LOGO" there is an Invert FX applied as Track FX.

OK Marco, thanks, but can you please tell me how to remove Invert FX?

Open the Track FX window by clicking onto the FX symbol in the track header and delete.

And one more question please: How can I resize my imported image (Princess image)?

I tried with (on track #8, 9, 10 and 11) :

1. Track motion option by XY Box increasing/decreasing - without success
2. Right click on my image (on track #9, 10 and 11) ->Switches-> unchecking "Maintain Aspect ratio"- without success

Thanks!
