My guess is that you did something awkward to the color profile or gamma correction. No idea where that information is stored, though--I'd probably resort to grepping through likely directories looking for "[Cc]olor". If it affects only a specific user, then the setting is probably in your home directory, since most distros don't like mingling user settings with general system settings. E.
