Colour Loss

I've been having a bit of trouble with colours in fireworks. I'm not exporting
or anything, but the colours in my documents keep changing.

For example: I'll draw something using #333333, but when I open the file again
the colour will have changed to #383838. Even worse, sometimes a single colour
will have split into several different shades.

I'm a pixel artist, so this is a big problem for me. Any suggestions?

In your 'Optimize' panel what do you have your colour set to?

It defaults to Gif WebSnap 128, but this occurs even when I save normally, without exporting.

Have you tried setting it to Adaptive 256 or JPEG?

What format are you saving as?

(And WebSnap 128 shouldn't change #333333 to #383838, since #333333 is in the Web 216 palette and #383838 is not. That makes no sense.)

I'm saving it by going file->save as->save. It autos to .png.

I'm not saving it as a gif, so I don't understand why changing the
optimization settings would change anything.

It only happens every now and then, I mostly notice it on files I havn't used
for a while; though I don't know if that would make a difference, as I'm doing
everything the same way.

And pixlor: yeah, that's what's really weird about it.
