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=

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.
