My photoshop was working perfectly and now my gradients don't seem to work and everything (Mainly greys) has a weird brown color to it. please help! The second picture is of a white radial gradient that looks brown.
When the color picker looks like that, it's a broken monitor profile.

This is a defective monitor profile, most likely delivered through Windows Update. Replace it with sRGB IEC61966-2.1 if you don't have a calibrator to make a new one.

Did you updated Windows recently? It seems that some users have some problems with color profiles lately, might be worth to revert before the last update.

This Lab reading confirms the brown result you are seeing. The a and the b channels should each read zero. Currently the a. channel is reporting a tinge of magenta and the b channel reports a stronger yellow.

I'm not sure exactly what your saying here, when i go to the "color picker" to change foreground or background color it looks like this. It's a brownish where my grey colors should be.
