CS2 colors not like the rest of my world

Yeah, big picture isn't the place for this, but I wonder how many of my big picture pals are still around.

Why does this car look purplish in CS2 but blue in IE?



In real life it is blue. How does it look on everyone else's monitors? Also, I should note that in CS2 if I go to the color selector and do 0R 0G 255B it shows purple. I had this problem once before, can't remember how I fixed it.

Haha, the wheels make sense when you hear the engine and feel the lumpy camshafts. That's original AMG spec on the wheels btw (not actually the AMG wheels, but look pretty much the same, and that is the color scheme AMG did back in the day...that color scheme for wheels also seems to be all the rage in Zurich these days).

We also call them 'melon smugglers' here because they have exhausts so big they can fill them with melons & smuggle the melons across borders without detection.

Shows blue to me.

So, now the question is why does it show as purple when I open it in CS2 when it looks how it looks to the rest of you in windows picture viewer, IE, Firefox, etc etc?

My exhaust was made by the person who makes the exhausts for the Panoz Esperante and many Nextel cup teams - there was a mind who understands engineering an exhaust behind it's creation, thank you very much.
