I spent the last few days doing a tutorial on creating preserved tissue specimens. When I uploaded the illustrations this morning they looked absolutely horrible. Since then I've been trying to figure out why the color calibration in PhotoShop is apparently futzed up beyond saving. I'm going to try doing a full re-install and, hopefully, I'll have the tutorial up later today or tomorrow.
I’m not sure what Photoshop version you are using but according to these sites, your Photoshop may be defaulting to CYMK rather than RGB.

ReplyDeleteThanks for that. I think I've tracked the issue down to a faulty profile for my computer monitor. Looks like buying that grey market Korean panel wasn't such a great deal after all. Heh.
