Adobe Illustrator was saving images out with slightly different color and now is not?

[Nin5FAA]

Hello Adobe community, 

Adobe illustrator used to save out my images in a slightly different color scheme then what I put as an input - however, recently, the color scheme doesn't get slightly changed. However, I really liked that adobe did that and I want to know how to put it back!

Here is my original image:

 Here is the image that adobe would output:

I would like to second color scheme back! It is much prettier. I've played around with how to save the images, but haven't had any luck. Has anyone else run into this issue?

What was/is your document colour mode?

What kind of file were you exporting? What options did you use?

What were/are your colour settings?

And can you not just eyedropper the colour, if that's actually the colour you want to use?

Figured it out!

'Letter' adobe will change the color scheme, 'Web' version will not.

The Letter preset is a Print CMYK one. Are you designing for screen or print?

Please learn about CMYK and RGB color mode and about conversions between the two.
