Have you gone to Control Panel Color Management and checked what profile you
are using? Mine is set to sRGB IEC61966-2.1 (default) and WPG displays colors properly. You may also want to visit your monitor manufacturer's site to see if they have an ICC color profile for your monitor.

Setting the color profile should fix it, but not if your monitor is screwy. I
am having a similar problem, only my pictures are hot green. I have done some research and found from this article: http://www.annoyances.org/exec/forum...ta/t1170271673 that the issue is due to Windows Photo Gallery using color profiles to display color. My problem is that I have a default Dell monitor which appears to have NO driver according to the website. The monitor did not come with the Vista PC, and I think this ultimately boils down to a driver issue. I'm afraid the only solution may be to get a new monitor, which seems like a very bad solution. Any suggestions? "Cal Bear '66" wrote: Have you gone to Control Panel Color Management and checked what profile you are using?

I've seen this now several times where a cepia or a yellow tint dominates the
Photo gallery - not just the images. It appears to follow the installation of something from Adobe's Creative Suite. I have gotten it fixed by going into control panel/hardware/color management select the monitor make sure "Use my settings for this device" is checked select the associated profiles and remove them all If you have multiple monitors you will need to do this for each of them. close. That has fixed it for me.
