I am using Adobe Photoshop 7.0 on Windows XP Home Edition.

I am currently working on selecting colors to paint a wall with. I have the color of the paint swatch open as well as the picture of my room open. When I use the eyedropper tool to select the color from the paint swatch and then go to fill in the wall with that color, the color that turns up is a different shade of the color that I just used the eyedropper tool on. I am using RBG color mode. Any help for this?

Are you adding the color to a layer that is underneath an adjustment layer perhaps? Like a levels? How are you filling in the walls with that color – what method are you using?
