In using Photoshop CS, images (photographs) opened are waaaay too dark. IF I open them in Paintshop Pro or ACDSee, they are fine. The same images also opened just as dark in Photoshop Elements II (although they originally opened fine when it was first installed over a year ago). The same images also open too dark in Photoshop CS2 that was just installed. Any thoughts as to why images are so dark when they open in Adobe programs? (It makes it impossible to adjust contrast, color, etc. when it is difficult to see the image).
