What the heck happened to my CS3 ?


So I left Photoshop CS3 running on my computer and let my girlfriend use the computer for other things. I come back and for some reason, the neutral gray background that photoshop has for framing all of your photos is now this very non-neutral blue color:

This blue background is not a background for the photo. It is the background that photoshop gives you when the photo is smaller than the window size. i.e. when you zoom out and the photo is small. When I full screen the windowed photo (by pressing "F"), the background does what what it's supposed to do and goes to the neutral gray, then black,... but then back to the ugly blue again once it is not in full screen view and in windowed view.

I looked all over in the options to find a way to change it back to the neutral gray but I can't find it. Anyone know how?

Right click in the blue area and then you can select any color you wish.

HOLY CRAP!!! I can't believe that's all it was. I can't believe I've never even accidentally stumbled on that of my 3 years of using photoshop haha.
