Could use a little bit of help on this end. I haven't used Photoshop in about three months as a result of a move and being away from my CGI career to concentrate on family stuff. In working today on a piece I've noticed CS going weird on me. Many of the normal filters are greyed out. And, when I try to "save as", I'm reduced to only a few options, nothing in the way of jpg/gif or any on the normal web saving type stuff. Is my brain going to mush, (don't answer that, ;-) or is something just plain wrong. My CS is an upgrade from 5.5 which I bought not long after it came out. I've tried reinstalling with all the required numbers and all...I'm just plain stumped. Advice would be great...TIA! -jay

Oh well, maybe a nevermind. Seems to be a C4D file problem. Let me try that end of 'osity. -jay

many features are based on the "image mode" as well... ...one other thing to peek at. also in lu of "re"installing PS, try tossing your "pref" file first (you can do a search on the forum to get the "keystroke shortcut") as whenever PS gets all wonky, deleating the preference file set everything back to normal... ... just a few other suggestions, hope it helps, :) retrocity

Hey thanks for trying to help. Turns out it was a 8bit/16bit thing. Ohhhh, got to get my "chops" back down. Thanks! -jay
