hey guys, wondering if you could help. i'm using a new LCD (Samsung Syncmaster 173P) and since i've gotten it i've had quite the issue with photoshop. i've tested this problem out on 5, 6 and 8 and get the same results

basically when i open a grayscale image it looks sepia... at first i thought it might be the color settings since i was using a new monitor (especially with LCDs things can get wacky), but i've since changed them to what i percieve would be the right settings; here they are...

RGB: Samsung - Naturl Color Pro 1.0 ICM (RGB works perfect)
CMYK: US Web Coated (SWOP) v2
Gray: Dot Gain 20%
Spot: Dot Gain 20%

changing the gray to a different setting doesn't seem to change the problem at all...

for a visual this is what i see in every other program (image ready, windows media viewer, dreamweaver, etc.)

what i see in photohop

at this point i've concluded it must be some issue with photoshop itself, it's certainly not a color calibration problem, because i got the desired look in every other program i use.

if anyone know what this problem could be or how to fix it please let me know! this is driving me nuts!

peace.

Re: Photoshop problem: can anyone help?

depends on what mode you're viewing the file as in PS. (CMYK vs RGB, etc)

hmmm, like i said, CMYK and RGB seeminly work fine, it's the grayscale that's a problem
