I have a problem where I am working away in Photoshop 7- I will design a website and when Im happy with it, obviously, i chop it up and optimise it for web. But the colours change!! It seems that everything in photoshop has a lot more magenta than it should have. It seems to be the actual workspace that does this as when i open a file that was created by someone else, it turns a magenta shade. The white appears white, and black is black..but its colours like blue and especially brown that appear green when saved for web. I have tried using the adobe gamma thingy but it doesnt work. My graphics card is a matrox millenium G450 Duelhead…

thanks for any help,

louise

Press "Shift-Ctrl k" and look under "Settings". If it isn’t already chosen, "Web Graphic Defaults" might clear this up.

Let us know if it does or doesn’t.

It still means that your display profile is wrong.
