One thing for sure... this is SPECIFICALLY a photoshop problem... somewhere in it's interpretation of what it's supposed to output. The old rule of thumb... if nothing else produces that result, then it must be the one that does. whatever is doing this has to do with your IMMEDIATE output to your monitor... one other thought, is Windows managing colour? I've had problems with that, but usually for print output. Nice picture. Lou.
