Just hit F after the image has loaded.

<sarcasm> Can’t be sure, but I think it takes about 0.02 of a second. </sarcasm>

Bob…

Is the image opening underneath your palettes?

If so, grab your palettes, and while holding the SHIFT key, move them a small distance away from their present location, then back, and you should see them "Snap" into place at the side of your monitor. When you do this, it tells Photoshop that the Palettes are now where they should be in relation to your present monitor space and the image window should now respect their presence and NOT open with any part of the image underneath any of the palettes.

Chris & Phosphor – Thanks for the answers. I’m getting old (it’s all relative)so some of the easy solutions are lost on me, love the F, and tools (I’m blessed with dual displays)are on my right screen – Thanks, Bob

Hey we’re all getting old!

….and for what it’s worth, I love the F too. But that’s a different story! <g>

Though you are using CS, it is worth knowing in CS2 you can trigger any script or action when certain events take place, such as opening an image. This may address your needs.
