I would love to learn how to do this. Some of the photos come out *so* cool looking!

I have to get back to being creative! I have not been doing anything with my photos, except trying to make a photo album for Tara of ALL of the Chip and Dale related photos we have taken.

Here is my first attempt! I also feel that I am going to become addicted to this! Just got Paint Shop today!

Sorry about the size! Was so excited that I forgot to resize it!

Busy day yesterday. Between my oldest DD graduating college and the youngest DD's HS prom, I think my shutter finger has blisters on it!!!

Great shot, the treatment really works well with the subject!

Ok, I'm just using this cool photo as my example (although they are all great!), but how is this done? Is this a photoshop thing? I have photoshop elements, but I think it is like version 1.0 as it doesn't even have a version number on the disc. However, I am hoping to get PSE 5.0 for my birthday this weekend. Is there a setting or something that will do this? My camera (S2 IS) can do one color selective, but not many different ones so I am assuming this is done in post processing somehow.

Very easy on PSE5! I just use these instructions http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/pselements/ss/partialcolor.htm using the Gradient Map Adjustment choice.

But beware, once you start, you can't stop ! It is addicting.

Thanks! I fear that right now it is WAY WAY WAY over my head as I do not understand a darned thing about photoshop, layers, layer masks, or anything else that doesn't have to do with cropping or the occasional clone tool. I have alot to learn. I'll wait for the PSE 5.0!

Thanks again. I'll get the hang of it once I have time to figure it all out.
