I am using CS2 with Win XP.

I followed a very simple tutorial for applying a colored pencil effect to a photograph using Filter> Artistic> Colored Pencil. I changed the Width to 3, the Pressure to 11 and the Brightness to 50. Then I added a beige textured layer below it and changed the blend mode of the colored pencil layer to multiply. This was my result.

I tried it again the very next day with the same picture and several others. As far as I know, I didn’t change any of the settings. But the filter is now turning everything bright blue. The same photograph, with the same settings, now looks like this.

I have tried holding the ctrl key and clicking on default in the filter. It only turned it darker blue. And I have rebooted several times. Is there anything else I can try to get the filter back to normal and get rid of the blue? Thanks for any suggestions!
