I got photoshop cc just yesterday and now the backround is gray instead of black and the color triangle wheel thing isn't there? I'm reinstalling it if that works.

    You can also hold down the option key (mac) or Alt Key Windows, to reset prefs on starting the software

    Please elaborate on what is happening.  Also, sharing a screen capture can be very useful.

    When you say the background is gray, are you referring to the overall tone of Photoshop?  If so, you can change by going:  Photoshop > Preference > Interface, and change the Color Theme.
