Making small edits on the same image over and over, is it just me or does it get more saturated each time?

Not sure if anyone else has run into this: in the same conversation, if you keep making small edits to one AI-generated image — just tweaking the background, adjusting the lighting, nudging the composition — the whole image gradually gets more saturated, contrast keeps climbing, and the colors turn muddy over time.

I don’t think it’s a bug, it feels more like each edit is compressing on top of the last result, errors stacking layer by layer, same vibe as repeatedly re-saving a lossy file — the cumulative effect is unavoidable. My workaround is to save a separate copy of the intermediate result at key points, instead of pushing down one path all the way — if I need a big change, I roll back to a clean version and start over.

Wondering if others have hit this too, and if there’s an easier way to sidestep the buildup.

Been there! A few color edits in and it turns muddy, thought I was imagining it

Not just in your head. Each round uses the last output as the base, so errors stack up. After 3-4 edits you gotta go back to the original.

我还一直以为是自己眼睛看久了看疲的 :sweat_smile:
