[QUOTE="hark, post: 551220, member: 13196"] Do you mean yours is set to the default like is pictured above? I'm asking because I tried changing some of the settings last night. Here's what happened: Last night I changed one of PCC's Color Management settings to Gamma 2.2 and a couple other changes I saw on a Lynda.com video. I even changed my default in Bridge (which I think was set to Adobe and not sRGB). Suddenly my files became a nightmare to edit! I had trouble setting my Whites and Blacks, and even when I did get things set, the colors, shadows, contrast, etc. looked terrible. I looked at my Spyder image to see if that changed, and for some reason, it listed the sRBG as being 100% although it was 76% before I made the changes. I never switched my computer's profile--only the Color Management settings within PCC and Bridge--but it somehow affected my computer overall. I made the choice to revert to the default settings because even when printing from outside labs, my colors, contrast, etc. tend to be reproduced pretty well. [/QUOTE]
