Wacky Copying and Pasting

Whenever I copy and paste an image, it's pasted flipped vertically. Obviously, this is a pain in Photoshop and other graphics stuff. Has anyone else experienced this? What can be done? Thanks a bunch!
 
Welcome to the forum bigpixl.
When ppl look for help in here, they should add as many details as possible. In your case it would be very interesting to know what version of macos you are using and which version of photoshop or other graphics there are.
Also add, what happenes when you copy and paste screen-captured images for example..
Also interesting thing: is it this way since you have your mac, or did this happen after you changed a certain thing or had a mysterious problem.
 
Well, it's not just in Photoshop, but in OS X itself. I copy album art into iTunes and its flipped. Quite honestly, I don't remember when it started nor can I think of what I could have installed to make it fark up like that, but I remember it wasn't always like this..
Screenshots are copied fine btw..
And thanks for having me here ;)
 
I am still missing the os. ;) Is it 10.1.x, 10.2.x or 10.3.x?
Anyway, one idea: Setup a new user account and try all these things on that new account. Still have the same problem?
 
The idea is to get all program preferences to default and see, if something has messed with your preferences. When everything seems to work fine on the new account, you should start moving one plist-file for certain apps by one to find where this problem lies. If you won't be able to find the faulty plist file, you should consider to change to the new account (in worst case).
However, when you have the same problem in the new account as well, then we should concentrate some more to find out, where the prob could lie
 
Oh yeah, and if you're going between users constantly like Sam suggested, you'll probably want to get Panther 'cause of the fast user-switching. :)
