More Photoshop Help
 

I know how to turn a picture into black and white and then use the history tool to turn some of it back to the original picture. I have two questions about that.

1) what is that called?

2) is there a way to change the black and white to sepia or something else? if so how?

I guess that is 3 but i'm counting it as 2. I have photoshop cs5.1 thank you for all your help

1. the name i think youre looking for is called "color selection"

2. I do it a slightly different way than you do it which is i make a selection of what i want to be in the original color (using whatever tool you want and refining the edge) and then copy that selection to a new layer. From there, you can do whatever you want with the background layer (saturation, hue, temperature, ect.)

let me know if you need any further help!

You can do sepia in photoshop but check out Topaz labs B&W plug in.

it's called played out!

just kidding. it's called selective color. use it wisely...and sparingly.
