Is there a way you can use the eyedropper tool to 'colorize' another image to blend with the color of another one? I usually just use the hue/saturation->colorize option, but sometimes no matter how I adjust the slider, I can't seem to find a near-perfect color to match.

I was trying to do it for the image posted above (the image on the right side was actually brightly colored). I tried to colorize but can't find the right enough 'tan' to match the color of the background, so I ended up desaturating it, putting another layer (lower opacity) filled with tan over it, and using the 'overlay' blend mode. >.<; And when I look at the result, the right side's color still doesn't blend too well with the rest Frown . It looks too light...

How do I use the eyedropper tool so I can just directly color the image with that color? Thanks a lot ^_^ .

Brightness and color are two different things. If you find your image is to light, then you need to darken it.

Is this more what you're after?

Hi.. I didn't mean the light/darkness par se.. it's more of the color on the right doesn't really match the color of the background Frown . It's like you can still tell the image on the right isn't part of the original picture. I've seen other's works and they blend the colors perfectly. >.<;

Thanks... I tried to and I still can't get it exactly the way I want.

*sweatdrop*

Or maybe I'm just too much of a stickler for perfect blending >.<; .
