    Hi,

    When I view my pictures in the Windows photo gallery they get a yellowish tint and the background on which the picture is shown is also yellowish, assuming that if there is a setting to change the background to white will solve this problem. Any help please ?

    There are instructions how to use the program but not how to change the background on which photos are seen. I don't know if this my problem only since all my friends are all still running XP. :rolleyes:

    There are some problems with certain graphic cards or monitors. WPG doesn't have the ability to change its background color.

    You can usually fix it by changing the color profile used by the monitor.

    • Go to Vista's Control Panel > Hardware and Sound, open Color Management
    • select the Use my settings for this device checkbox.
    • Remove existing profile. (Select it and click Remove button)
    • Click the Add… button
    • Select sRGB IEC61966-2.1 ICC profile and click OK
    • Click the Set as Default Profile button
