Hey guys. I got a new LCD widescreen monitor and it seems when i go into lightroom, all my black & white photos are yellow-ish... but noticebly NOT black/white... if i open the same files using other programs, they all seem fine. I have my monitor calibrated so i think this is a lightroom-specific issue.

Anyone have any suggestions ?

thanks!


EDIT : I figured it out...I changed the color profile from teh corrupt file that came with the monitor to the Prophoto profile :)

    OK, maybe not completely solved... i still get some off colors in lightroom only. the function where you highlight the lights and darks in the histogram, for example, used to be red and blue... it's not purple-ish and red-brownish... headscratch.gif

    Help pls :cry
