saving defaults?

Gimp used to start with the regular black foreground, white background color setting. At one point I must have done something without realizing, because now whenever I start the foreground color is set to a light pink. I want it to be black again, but I don't know how I get that reset. I tried picking black and then closing Gimp, but as soon as I start the program it switched back to the pink color. Where can I make it remember the default color selection?

I had a problem similar to this, only it was for tool settings. The solution was to go to Edit->Preferences, go to the "Tool Options" page, then tick "Save tool options on exit".

As it happens, the same setting controls both tool options and colours - I just checked. :)

[edit: Or if you don't want to save them each time you exit, just click "Save Tool Options Now" for a one-time save.]
