edges on blur..

Hi Chaps..

I havent changed anything that i know of, however when i try and do a simple drop shadow, either as a shape and add gausin blur or gently build up on a brush i get strange rings, rather than a smooth gradient.

An example can be found here:

Ive tried the image on other monitors and its still there..

i hope that someone can help me out..thanks in advance

those rings are transparent pixels...... you most likely are feathering your selections set the option to 0 see if that help if it isn't already...good luck

Thanks id....im not too sure about the featherings aspect...as, when for example i use a soft brush i get those rings going around......

However i think that you are onto somthing as when i roll over the edges witht he info panel open the CYMK values are all 0, even thought i can see with eyes some king of tone

....any thoughts?
