Why does the color white in photoshop CS2 9.0 look like a cream color?? Even the color #ffffff looks like a cream color. and I cant get a true light gray either.

It's your monitor, not the software. Did you run Adobe Gamma?
Adobe Gamma is a small program that is installed with Photoshop to profile your monitor. Here is a link to an article to help you get started.

Once you have calibrated, you will see your colors better.

Hit your D key then your X key. That changes the foreground color to white. If it doesn't LOOK white, you might either be in a Proof mode that's changing how things look -or- your monitor is poorly calibrated. Check to see if you're in a proof mode by looking under the VIEW menu and making sure that Proof Colors is not checked. If it still doesn't look white, adjust your monitor settings. Also, you probably want your IMAGE > MODE to be either RGB or CMYK.

There are many reasons that may cause this:
Save format: try to change the format to png or other better quality format may get the true colors you are using.
Save for web option ... it may change colors sometimes to optimize for size.
Using LCD screens sometimes does not show accurate colors, try to view the image on CRT screen.

color mode could be the problem. if you are working on a .gif file, then your file is in 'indexed color mode' which means it only recognizes a pre-set amount of colors. if that is the case simply change your color mode to rgb or cmyk and you should be able to select white again.

sounds like your photoshop isn't set up for the type of monitor you are using. Go under Edit > Color Settings to set this up.

1. Your screen colors are not corectly adjusted
2. You're using CMYK instead of RGB
