hey, when I sample a colour it automatically becomes the background colour not the foreground one. Unless I'm going insane I don't think this used to happen. What have I done?
 
Can't you just switch the background/foreground? Maybe you've already switched them and that's why this is happening.
 
Is it just a case that you're using the eye-dropper tool and alt-clicking? As opposed to using a brush tool and alt- clicking?

Eyedropper + alt-click = background colour.
Brush + alt-click = foreground colour.

???
 
try double clicking the foreground colour first. Having done this, if i then move the cursor outsideof the colour gradient box and onto the image I'm working on, it seems to automatically turn to the eye-dropper colour selecter.
 
turn the mouse upside down and do everything
else in reverse

or try reseting all the preferences to their default
y'never know
 
so....mackey...did you ever sort this out?

wouldn't it be ironic if this ever happened to me!?
maybe i should jsut tunr the mouse upside down
and do everything in reverse.
 
Check in the toolbar which appears near the top of the screen when you choose the crop tool. Perhaps the size is set to the dimensions of a square for example Width 1000px X Height 1000px if this is the case simply delete the values for Width and Height.
 
I downloaded a photoshop template and I want to rotate it 90 degrees counter-clockwise - how do I do this?
ps.PNG

I want the vertical lines to be horizontal and the closer ones at the bottom. If it was possible to add text, rotate it 90 degrees and to continue having it editable then that would do too but it seems once you rotate text you're stuck with it.
