Nothing can add interest to a black and white project as much as a splash of color can. And nothing can make a picture so perfect like the exact right color. Fortunately, Photoshop will let you fine tune, adjust and replace colors in artwork at will – and when you see how easy it is to do you’ll never settle for “almost” again. In this weeks issue of MouseHints we’ll learn how to add a custom color to our Swatches palette, how to save a custom palette, and the abc’s of color replacement (it’s easier than you think.) We’ll also learn how to change your working mode to grayscale and how to hide or remove those accidental or on purpose Slice boxes. Remember, if you have questions that you’d like answered in MouseHints, send them to help@helpdeskcards.com. Next Month’s theme is Windows XP.

1. Choose Color Settings from the Edit menu. Then choose North America Prepress 2 from the Settings pop-up menu.

Sometimes, you can add uniqueness and interest to an ordinary looking (but well-composed) color photograph just by draining all the color from it except for one or two well-placed elements of the photo. In digital photography, you can do it very easily it in just a few minutes. I did this with Adobe PhotoShop Elements 2. I’m sure it can be done with equal ease using other photo editing software such as Paint Shop Pro, Adobe PhotoShop CS, etc. The nomenclature may be a little different, but the basic steps will be similar.

Bring a focus point to your photographs by making them black and white and highlighting one area by colorizing it.

Step 1: Open your original picture in Photoshop and add a Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layer to it from your Layer pull-down menu (Layer>New Adjustment Layer>Hue/Saturation).
Step 2: Give the Layer a Name and choose OK.
Step 3: Move your sliders for Hue & Saturation all the way to the left so that -180 shows up in the Hue box and -100 shows up in the Saturation box and press OK.

Historically, one of the guiding conceptual principles behind creating images digitally has been the concept of WYSIWYG, or, What You See Is What You Get. When color is involved in a desktop environment, however, WYSIWYG turns into something like: WYSIONECTWYG — What You See Is Often Not Even Close To What You Get. There are five main reasons why colors that are output from the digital environment, to a desktop color printer, a printing press or even a monitor sometimes do not match the colors that are seen on a monitor or in an original scene:

One of the “secrets” of adding a great-looking color tint to a photo is starting with a great black and white image. Thanks to the new Black & White command in the Photoshop CS3 Beta, it’s very simple to create a great black and white image–and add a color tint.

Step One
Although you can apply the Black & White command from the Image>Adjustments menu, I highly recommend using an Adjustment Layer instead (you’ll see why a little later). From the Layers palette popup menu, choose Black & White from the Adjustment Layer menu. Here’s the result without changing any settings:

After shooting with your digital camera (of after scanning a piece of film), you will want to use Photoshop to fine-tune the colors and mood of the photos you took. Often, especially when shooting in raw format, your pictures will look a bit dull and washed out compared to the way they looked on the camera’s small LCD. This is entirely normal, for the camera is applying some fixes of its own to make to picture look “punchy” on the LCD, but the raw data awaits your manipulation to show its true “colors.” Photoshop offers you all the tools you need to accomplish your vision, but it requires a good deal of setting up before you can start adjusting, correcting and tweaking. Let’s start with that.
