Hi @REDACTEDUSER
That looks like the difference between sRGB and linear textures. It would imply that the shader is not converting to sRGB because it is assuming that the texture is already sRGB. But it looks like the texture is linear. This can happen since the Asset Processor will convert textures to linear color space unless told not to by the .exportsettings file with the same name.
Which file is it that you are replacing?
Hi @REDACTEDUSER
Try copying the exportsettings file that is associated with the original. I.e. copy startscreen.tif.exportsettings and put it in the same folder as your new splashscreen and rename it to be the same name as the texture file.
I think that may fix the issue you are seeing.

Thanks for the suggestion. For any future viewers: I increased the gamma to 2.2 on the image (using GIMP, this made the image brighter). According to an article I found here, this appears to be a default across displays. If that doesn't work for you, perhaps 0.45 will.
Hello @REDACTEDUSER
I am replacing the default splash screen graphic located at dev/Engine/EngineAssets/Textures/startscreen.tif (not sure if replacing is the right word here; I am changing the path in the .cfg file to point to the file above).
I currently don't an .exportsettings file associated with this image (or any image for that matter).
Hello @REDACTEDUSER
I tried this, and it didn't work. I can see that the export settings for the image have changed, but it is still showing up brighter in the UI. I have tried this using both my example image and startscreen.tif.
Are UI images not supposed to have a pure white (255,255,255) color?
Hi @REDACTEDUSER
If it is the color space (which it does look like) then white is 255 and black is zero in both color spaces (sRGB and linear). But values in between appear differently due to the gamma curve that sRGB applies.
The splash screen does not get rendered by the in game UI system and appears to be assuming that the texture is in a different color space. You could try saving a copy of the image in a different color space and use that for the splash screen version.
