How do i change the colour of the subject? Like say.. a blue flower to a red. I've tried "replace colour" in PS and also changing the saturation but it doesn't work. :dunno:
You would also end up changing colours of all the other parts of the photo. You should use an adjustment layer and mask off the areas you wish to retain colours.
can try using colour range selection in CS2 to mask out the colour that you want to change and use the Hue/saturation to change it. Have not try it but it should work.
Ok. Thanks. What i want to achieve is a yellow body and a black side box. But I can't seem to get both. I've tried the level method on the side box which i've already changed to yellow, and it won't work.. :dunno:
Thanks a lot. But i still can't get the result i want. I tried the levels method and the side box became pitch black. It's like i just paint bucket the whole thing.
when making such drastic changes like changing from white to black with levels, i would advice that you convert the image to 16bit format first, do the changes, and then flatten and change back to 8bit format if you want or save in 16bit if you want to keep the adjustment layer...this is so that the resultant image would be smoother as changes made in 16bit format will have more leeway for smoother shifts even if the original is 8bit...and if there is still some visible stepping in the affected areas, add a bit of noise to smoothen it out
