My 12" powerbook screen is looking like I adjusted exposure or brightness in a photo. Kind of like slightly over exposing a picture. My aqua blue is looking light blue, and the white edges of files blend into the white finder background. I have tried looking at the colour setting in display, but it doesn't seem to help. This happened after my last restart... I am a little worried...

I have a feeling that some recent keyboard shortcuts / triggers I set up in Quicksilver are conflicting, after seeing the enhance contrast ones in universal access...
