Ok.. first time posting. Hi, hello, blah blah blah

Here's my problem. I'm messing around in photoshop 5.5, happy as can be. Swirling my paintbrush and airbrush around looking at all the pretty colors. Everything's just great. Lately I've been getting a bit more adventurous, try to color scans of stuff, making logos.. yadda yadda, and I notice all this little rebel pixels start appearing. The bastards might have been there before and I just didn't notice, I dunno.
Anyway, these little rebel pixels don't want to be the colours as those around them, they want to be different. They line up in little lines sometimes or just go random. The little devils don't seem permanent and they jump around when the cursor is near them sometimes, and if I hide and unhide layers they all completely change. The problem is they show up in anything I save.

Heres a mugshot of the vandals


I added the red of course

In that pic they don't look very bad.. they blend pretty closely with the blue that's there, but sometimes they stand out and are really nasty.

So, I need some help being Big Brother and stomping on the faces of this rebel pixels. Whats going on here??

And if you say something like my RAM is messed up I may cry, even if it is true.

Where's Mulder when you need him? Or better yet Scully?

I should probably mention that these nasty pixels only appear in the image part of photoshop, the place where you draw and stuff, not all over the screen.

Make sure there is no layer on top of the layers you draw on.

AirWhale,
That is a bizarre problem. Not to sound stupid, but have you tried reinstalling PS.

In this type of case, I usually go right for tech support. They've usually heard of the problem already and sometimes have a solution.

Good luck.

That's what happens when you use cracked software... shame shame shame...

Just kidding, who knows what's wrong.
Ask Adobe!
