with MSPaint:

Check your colour management settings: Edit -> Preferences -> Colour management

Best guess, M$Paint is not colour managed

Edit: just seen the added image(s) both look the same on my browser, guessing the browser is not colour managed either.

Ok...thanks a lot.................I really did not understand

Anyone printing off photographs at home and find that the prints come out much darker than expected.

Some good articles here: https://www.cambridgeincolour.com/color-...inting.htm

and some simple adjustments that can be made: https://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutori...ration.htm

Of course if you send off to a commercial printer then it becomes a bit more tricky.
