If you are inserting the image as a "watermark," then the colors are
intentionally muted (the "washout" property is applied automatically). You
can access the document header and change the color setting on your
background image (which is anchored to the header). It will still be dimmed
in Word when the document body is active. In addition, some wrapped images
may display dimmed even when you view the header (this is a bug) but should
print properly. For more on this, see

Thanks Suzanne,
I was following that exact tutorial, but upon rereading it now, one line
struck me:
"If the object is to be a ³watermark,² you will probably want to choose
³Behind Text² as the wrapping style..."
I did not *intend* to insert the image as a watermark, but does this
mean setting the text wrap to ³Behind Text² turns it into a watermark??
That would explain it.
I thought I needed to apply this setting in order for the body text to
flow over the image.
