Material Color Changed from SW06 to SW08

Material Color Changed from SW06 to SW08

(OP)
Good afternoon, I have notice that right after upgrading from 06 to 08 that the color of brass changed from a brass-like color to a ugly mud brown.  I tried copying a o0 material table into my  files but that did absolutely nothing.  This is of course the color applied when making a new part and selecting the material.  The parts that were made in 06 still have the same color, which is the way brass should look.  This happens only to new parts being made in 08.  It appears that brass is the only material that has had this happen to it, because all of the rest still look the same as 06.  Has anyone else had this problem?  What could cause it?  Thanks for any help.

Thanks CorBlimeyLimey, I guess that kind of explains why I now have the ugliest looking brass in the world.
