Screen looks like an x-ray

Hi our iMac (latest version) screen looks like the setting were changed. It appears to look like everything is an x-ray. Whites are black, Blues are brown, and Blacks are white just all together weired. Does anyone know how to get it back to normal?? I have tried going to apearances and themes but everything is the same as normal.

Please comment!! Any thoughts are appriciated!

lawest,

Hold down CMD-OPTION-CONTROL and hit 8.

Edit: The long explanation is in System Preferences > Universal Access > seeing tab > display > Black on white rather than white on black.

You probably hit the shortcut keys to get it there initially.
