Hello,

I’ve never managed to get photoshop to show my colours correctly. I recently reinstalled it thinking it would strip all the colour settings (which it did) but its still no good.

I use picassa to organise my photos and the colours show up in that the same as they do on my camera, in windows thumbnails and on my Creative Zen Vision:M. In Photoshop they area bit too yellow.

I have a Sharp 172 monitor using the digital input, I have a Canon Powershot S2 which uses the standard sRGB colour space, I also have a Canon printer and a canon scanner. My pictures usually print to the colours as they are in windows and picassa but this makes it hard as I like to edit them in photoshop so I am not seeing a true representation of the colours.

Can someone please help me sort this!

Thanks.

Photoshop is a colour managed program, the others are not. You need to calibrate your monitor for starters,
