Strange Colour Happining In Tiger

[The Monkey]

Hi there.

I have the latest version of tiger running, and up until a few days ago, all the normal colours on my system were that aluminium brushed metal colour they are normally supposed to be.

Now however, certain things look sick; they have gone an unhappy browny green colour, mostly on my widgets. The normal grey background on calculator is now brownish green, and other little things have changed to this colour too like the little speakers in the sound preference pane. (Usually grey), they are now browny green.

Can anyone help?

Cheers

Sounds like you may have inverted the screen colors accidentally.

Open "System Preferences", then click on the "Universal Access" icon. Make sure under "Display:" that "Black on White" is selected, not "White on Black".

You can also switch this on-the-fly by pressing command-option-control-8.

(el diablo: i think he may have notcied if all the screen was inverted, it's a lot more drastic than what he's describing... which is quite strange...)

Michael, can we have a screen shot please? apple+shift+4 will give you the crosshiar to make a selection which will save on the desktop.
