I rendered a very basic image of a nude female (going to try and paint clothes on her, hence the nudity) and when I bring it into PhotoShop, the color is really off! She's way too red, blockyness in shadows and her skin tone, etc.etc. I haven't used P4 since I got PhotoShop7, I never had color problems like this in PS6. It's not my monitor, because I've had a friend look it over and it's fine. Both of us are stumped at what's the problem with my Photoshop7. I'll try to get a picture of what's happening, but if anyone knows how to fix this, please tell me! :(

Here's the image, but what's weird is that it looks less red on the web, but really red and blocky in PS7. *cry* Ugh, I'm so ready to hurt PS7 :( Please help! ps - None of my images that were in ps6 ever looked this bad btw. I think there's a setting in ps7 that I probably need to tweak, I'll ask my dad about this when he gets home.

Open up one of you images you sis with PS6 or previous and see if the problem persists. If it does, then you may have to tweek something in PS. If the old images look good but the new one (shown here) look bad, it might be a problem with your renderer or the settings of your other software.

calibrat Photoshop's colour settings. Photoshop runs its own colour and monitor settings independant from everything else, including the web.

I reinstalled PS6 on my machine, the coloring is normal, but it still happens in PS7. I had my dad mess with the settings (he works with ps7 all the time) but he doesn't know what's wrong either. He's thinking that it has to do with P4's rendering and then the image not being compatible with ps7... I have no idea. But, I'm going to be using ps6 for now.

render to tif format mayhaps? I assume you simply tried copying the photoshop colour settings from 6 to 7 already? Maybe you're working in a Lab or CMYK colour space?

I'll try tif, and using the settings in 6 doesn't affect it in 7.
