OK folks here is my fancy way I convert to a monotone to control
contrast in Photoshop. I know that this works with PS 5.5, 6, and 7, or
any version that uses adjustments layers. I'm using version 7.
Open a RGB file in Photoshop. When trying this out try to use an image
that has lots of different colors. Then open your Layers pallet and hit
the Layer adjustment button at the bottom. When you do that you will be
given a bunch of options, choose Hue/Saturation, then click OK. After
hitting OK go to your Layers options drop down menu and choose Color.
You will want to do the same process, but with a few variations. With
the same image hit Layers adjustment button and gain pick
Hue/Saturation, but before you hit OK slide the Saturation slider to the
left. Your image should now look black and white. Now hit OK. Now double
click on your first Adjustment layer window,and up pops your
Hew/Saturation window. Now you have all the control over the entire
image or just over one color. Leave the Edit: menu at Master and slide
Hue slider back and forth or slide the Saturation slider, you will
affect the whole image, or pick a color from the Edit menu and just
affect
that one color.
I hope this is understandable and that you find this useful.
If you have any questions please email me off the pinhole list so we
don't tie it up.
