Why are my whites an off white in photoshop, more of a yellow really? I can select colour FFFFFF (pure white) and it is still this off white colour, almost like sepia tone. If I use export to web, then the image comes up fine, ie whites are white. I don't think it's my monitor because of this, and none of the rest of my whites seem to be like this on other colours. I'm sure it must be something really simple to fix this, but I can't for the life of me seem to fix it. Thanks for any help.

I remember having a similar problem, and think I reinstalled my monitor drivers or something in the end.

This thread might be helpful http://forums.techguy.org/digital-photography-imag...

Otherwise there are a few alternative forums discussing a similar issue of photoshop white is yellow or something along those lines

A ha! Thanks for the link, worked a treat. yeah my monitor is recently calibrated, but it is a samsaung monitor, which apparently does not work with adobe gamma! All sorted now, thanks for the help guys.
