Pixel Joint Forum: What did I do wrong?

Message

I spent all day working on this pixel.  What I was trying to do is make my dithering look like cross-hatching.

Anyway, when I save it the colors get all messed up(i'm in paint, btw)
My first thought is that I saved it as a gif. but I didn't, it's a PNG.

Does anyone know what I did wrong?

	It must have read as a dither reduction cheat. I wonder is WIP/references and all documentation needs to accompany it. What's wrong with saving it as a gif? There is a shade of grey in there that looks CG too. *tried and failed to be of any help

	It might just be on my computer, but this is what happens when you save as a gif on paint. I can do it on other programs without messing it up, though. I'm pretty bummed because it was really cool looking before :/
