changing the look of the 'preview window.'

sorry if this is answered somewhere, but i think the window within PSP that i use to see images is the 'preview window' and i want to change its appearance - it currently uses black (including the borders) which i can barely see.

Maybe....depends on if you mean the organizer or the full editor. Technically the image preview area of the organizer is different than the workspace in the full editor.

But in both cases the coloring of the area is defined by the option "Use Graphite Workspace Theme." The dark colors are the graphite look. To revert back to the original look with very light colors you can just go up to the View menu and deselect "Use Graphite Workspace Theme." Everything should appear a much lighter grey, which personally hurts my eyes.

There is an option for making changes to your registry that will allow you to edit the colors more precisely for certain aspects of the program. But I tend to stay away from that. It doesn't guarantee a unified workspace colortheme.
