Wierd issue with PS 7.0

This is prolly one hell of a noob question, but I'll shoot.
When I open PS and open a skin for example it becomes like this:


How do I remove them gray squares? When I try to crop etc they mess the whole thing up..
Sorry if it's in the wrong forum...=(

Vagabond-

I think you have to go under tools and disable grid or something to that effect, and what the hell are you skinning?

Haha, that's not a skin, thats a pic from last years Greece vacation, but I used it so you could see what I meant.
Thanks for your advice by the way!

Vagabond-

wait I think its under view or something, sry for the mix up

Yay, found it, it was under View >> Extras.. or.. lol I could've pressed Ctrl+H, anyway, thanks for your help and hospitality.
