Problem with the color!

Hi!
I'm new to ps (I use cs6) and just got into an (to me) seemingly odd problem. When I pick a color and paint with it it doesn't appear the same as the "preview". Most colors looks lighter or closer to either yellow, magenta or teal.
I've used ps for i few hours today before the problem suddenly occurred.
I painted the red and purple before I got the problem. The circle is how the color now looks (compare with the "preview" in the color-picking-thing).

Hello and welcome to PSG

You have you Brush Tool's Painting mode set to Pin Light. Change it to normal.

Try changing the Blend Mode of the layer to 'Normal'.......its set to 'Multiply' in both your images.

You'll see this at the top of the layers panel...

...or change the brush...

(How do you do it Sam? I mean just how?) :rofl:

Why can't we have a 'Hate this post' button? :rofl:

Well done Sam....teachers pet!

LOL.....It was a toss-up as to which one to look at first....the brush or the layer....I guess on this occasion you looked left, which was right, and I looked right, which was wrong.

DOH!

Regards.
