Colors in PS out of whack?!?!?!?!?

[todd.roat]

While not exactly a PPT question, I trust this groups graphic expertise
;^)

All of a sudden (never a good phrease) color representation in PS CS2
are incorrect. Standard window grayscale colors turn up as browns in
PS. See this example of a screen capture taken

http://207.234.221.182/staging/stash/screen.jpg


The center image was imported into PS via Prt Scrn screen capture.
When copied into PS it becomes brown. Also, if you note the color
swatch palette, the row of grayscale boxes on the seconf row right also

look brown.


Thoughts, ideas, concerns?


Nothing new done to sstem. P4 PC with a Radeon X300 mid range card
that, until now, was fine. I donwloaded the most current ATI drivers
but no luck.


Card issues?

What about color management? If you're working in RGB, best bet is to turn it
off.

Hey, Todd -- good to see you!

I'd guess the same thing as Steve. In Photoshop CS 2, you can turn off the
color management in Edit|Color Settings -- select
Color Management Off in the top "settings" drop down. For some reason I
think it was in a different place in PS 6.0 or CS1 (but I can't remember for
sure).
