Blender created Icon look ugly on PC, great on viewport

I was trying to create a simple icon for PC, it looks great on viewport and in render, but in PC, it looks awful

It is good looking on the viewport though

I tried adding an HDRI as well, but still the same. Any help will be great. Thanks.

Hi,

What exactly do you mean?

Hi, please see image1, that is my File Explorer / Nautilus. While the model looks great within viewport and as image, when applied as an icon, it has a washed-out feel, faded colours.

Thanks.

I see.

I’m not sure, but try to look into your export file settings.

Also, some hints:

Hi, thanks, I meant, bad, faded colours. It is a transparent PNG.

I have updated the first post, the image looks so dull when using Blender when compared to drawing in Inkscape.

Currently, I am trying to fix it using GIMP, but they are still way far from what I would like an icon to look like.
