why is my white sort of blueish

[just another guy]

yeah ever since ive had cs3, the white hasnt been white
and because of this, a colour which contains white in it (like not a solid colour) always looks difference if you view it with another program, so u cant always tell the exact outcome

is anyone else having this problem and is it supposed to happen?
heres a pic of just a plain white background of a sig i was about to start and yes this is as white as it will go

ok heres a pic of what it looks like

This needs to be moved to photoshop help.

Check the HEX number of your white color. It should be FFFFFF.
If it's anything else then its not white.

If thats wrong then your monitor calibration is probabaly off.

and yeah my moniters fine as u can see the side menus perfectly ok

there are a number of possibilities... but you should try resetting the settings first.

while opening photoshop, hold down ctrl+alt+shift, and select yes to delete the settings file. see if that helps.
