Recently I was working on an image that was maximized inside of Photoshop; the area around the image that is normally the default grey (has nothing to do with the image itself) turned black.

Since that area wasn’t a part of the image, I don’t know why it changed colour. Does anyone know what happened here and how I might go about getting this black area back to grey?

I am on a Windows OS with Photoshop 5.0 Limited Edition.

Shift-clicking on that area with the paintbucket tool will change it to whatever your foreground color is.
