Strange View of Pictures after editing in Photoshop

Hi there,
I have a small problem with Aperture. After editing in Photoshop, Aperture
views a picture in a strange way. I have exported the file to Photoshop in tiff,
16bit and 300dpi).

Before (jpg, 96 KB):

After (tiff, 1,55MB):

Has anybody ever seen a problem like this yet...?

Cheers, Mactheny.

Are you adding Alpha channels, in Photoshop?

Yes, I do. And I think, that's the answer of my problem. In the german Aperture-
Forum we discussed about the same thing and a few of Aperture-users have
made similar observations. Hope, the Aperture-team will fix this bug.

Search the forum on "alpha channel" and you'll find the workaround -- include a blank white alpha channel as the top one in the stack in PS (number 4 right below R G and B). I don't know if it will solve this symptom, but it solves others.
