May I know why do I still have buggy colors?
It's still nearly impossible to read what is being said in the lobby of games. D=

Screenshots or it didn't happen.

There you go for the screenshot.

EDIT: Wait, wtf? When I took the screenshot, the colors really were screwed.
@_@

Weird behaviour!

a) I see no proof at all that you followed the intructions correctly.
b) The colors are fine.

The amount of help you receive on a problem is directly correlated to the amount of information you provide.
We need proof of your OS and a screeny of the respective reg key you should have created/modified through the above instructions.
To do the latter press [Windows] + R and enter "regedit". Then follow the tree structure to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DirectDraw\Compatibility\Starcraft116 and upload a screeny of that.

Though it seems I cannot screenshot my buggy colors: the one I provided was taken while I had those colors and, weirdly, it shows all okay! O.o

That's because the color bug is due to a palette issue (only 256 colors) which do not apply to the screenshots (simplified).

This happens to me too but once you get in a game, the color will fix itself.

Oh_Man -- have i ever told u guys my SC2 pro-gamer story

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- Used : " [img=https://i.imgur.com/gpOjTuD.jpeg] "

ManCubuS -- Even tried with imgur, doesn't attach.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.
