How do you convert a color or B&W photo to one color?

2006-08-12 04:13:01, Category: Programming & Design
Utilizing Photoshop 7.0, I am creating the front cover for a school handbook. It will be green ink on white paper. I have type, squares of solid green, and tints of green, and photos (which need to also be the green). I cannot remember if there is a way to take a color photo and make it into a green tinted photo. I want to match the same green used on last year's cover, which was equivalent to CMYK values of 88,25,100,12. (I am hoping this has an easy solution that I just am missing - I haven't really worked with Photoshop in ages) Thanks in advance.

    You're on the right track. you need to get some more specific info in the sequence of steps. from the Photoshop forum or on the web, or, from the tips books... You'll plug in the CMYK values as one solution. But, you really should search Google!

    Go to option Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation You should see a window with 3 slider bar options. Select the "Colorize" option, then adjust the 3 slider bars to get the "tint" you want. Hue adjust the color Saturation adjust how "thick" the color is Brightness adjust the lightness and darkness of the color. Hope that helps.
