Great scans left on the screen for days eventually looked awful. The surprise is that the info pallette reflected the bad greens that overcame the charcoal gray suit. I re-callibrated the aging monitor with an X-rite DTP92Q Optimizer and their Monitor Optimizer software. A restart in OS X and my scans were beautiful again with the info pallette showing proper values for what I saw.
Then I airbrushed a section of suit with neutral color while in "color" mode to remove a very slight green cast in one area. As I painted the suit turned an awful blue-ish while the info pallette said that the area was perfectly neutral, equal RG&B.
In the first case the info pallete revealed what the monitor was displaying eventhough the file was not that way. Later the info pallette revealed "the truth?" while the monitor displayed something else. ‘b’Where does the info pallette get it’s data? ‘b’and what could be going on here? Is my almost 3.5 year old monitor going bad? It’s a Samsung SyncMaster 900NF and has been good so far.
