Go to adjust image, choose selective colour, then choose colour you want to change, then play around. You can get some really suptle effects.

"...was that easy to do?" John F

Not ignoring your question John - it just seems Explorer is making the decisions about what it will show me and when.

You can do it with selective colour changing as per Peter\'s reply but I\'m afraid I just cheated for speed - duplicated the layer, made a layer mask and then bullied the colour curves. I don\'t know what the LE version of  Photoshop contains in the way of manipulation tools if that is what you are using. This was done in the full version which allows for masks on on individual layers as well as alpha and colour channels.

Perhaps we should put together a photo retouching stand for Rotorstock to raise more money for MRC - "all of the wheels in all of the colours." lol

Anyone interested in photoshop classes visit the apple store in Regent Street London!!  

The guys in the "studio" can answer any of your Q\'s on how to do stuff, show you how to do it and leave you to have a play with one of their demo machines... anyone with a PC, Photoshop is simillar on both platforms!

Just take Jinx\'s Quote in and they will walk you through it! :D

Stu,
As per another thread, these wheels are beautiful..In the flesh, they match their quality..Believe me, i saw them at Geff\'s new place--White may look a bit "mean", but quality always beats that....
Another baby on the way, so that\'s where my dosh is going!!
Pete:p
PS Are your current alloys original or after-market?

Sorry Pete - just found that one about changing blue to red. I\'ve obviously upset Explorer - it has been editing my viewing.   Will fix tomorrow (today) if the one from ORi in the post below it does not answer the question. Been sat in front of this thing since 8am this morning - bed for now.
Cheers
Andrew

Soooo many reflections. Photoshop - the colouring book for almost grown ups. Done same way as before but with a (very) little more finesse (Explanation in Greek and Dutch available above. Lol)

No. This is...

Έκανα αντιγραφή στο layer, έκανα μια μάσκα και άλλαξα τις καμπύλες των χρωμάτων. Δεν ξέρω τι περιέχει η έκδοση LE του Photoshop, όσον αφορά τα εργαλεία αλλαγής, αν αυτό χρησιμοποιείς. Αυτό έγινε στην πλήρη έκδοση, που επιτρέπει τις μάσκες σε ξεχωριστά layer όπως επίσης και τα alpha και τα κανάλια χρωμάτων.

It is always handy to have a Greek guy in the forum!!!:rollin

Those wheels do look nice..... I have a set of them on my RX (but in a gold type colour, see below pic). Would recommend those AVS model 5\'s :D
