Hey All,
As you’d expect, there are many ways to create a sepia effect in Photoshop. You can blend colour overlays, delve into the channel mixer or play with curves, but I’m going to show you one of the easiest and fastest methods to create a full-on sepia tone to add to your photographs.
With an image open, open the layers palette and click the adjustment layer icon at the bottom (it’s the little half-black half-white circle that’s highlighted with a red circle of its own in the example below). From the pop-up menu select the Photo Filter option, and then change the type of filter to sepia and density to whatever best suits the image you’re modifying (for the example image below I’ve used a density of 100%). Finally, make sure that ‘preserve luminosity’ is checked and then click OK.
And there it is! You’ve converted your photograph from full colour to an antiquated sepia version and because you’ve used an adjustment layer you can go back into the filter at any stage and make additional changes.
Good luck! _________________ Matt

o.O
Well it's a clever trick never-the-less.
Personally I'll always use filters, as you can easily put them in the shredder, incinerate them and then send them into orbit if you don't like them.
My personal preference in any case. _________________ ~ Kryn |
