Hi people,
I was just wondering what everyone uses when doing selective colour editing on their picture. I would greatly appreciated everyone's opinions and thoughts.
Thanks so much! :)
PhotoShop Elements 9. Masked around the Kodachrome box, enlarged it to make sure I had all of the box and nothing else, then converted the rest of the photo to B&W.
I use photofiltre on most of my edits
free download from sonic website and a great program. and then I also use photoscape. another free edit program..
@kitcat29 here's the first photo that popped in my head that I did selective coloring o with picnik, it's a detailed photo so it too a little bit of time. But picniknis super easy to use.
I used to only have Picasa (free downloadable from Google) which is handy and easy but only makes a circle of selective colour that you can enlarge but not fit to the outlines of a certain subject. If that is what you need, it can look quite nice:
If you choose a very sharp border of that circle you can even paint a moon that wasn't there before:
But Photoshop is much easier to just select one specific colour or a certain area to be coloured:
I use Photoshop CS5, create a new layer and use the quick select tool then copy to a new layer. Then go back to the original layer and convert to black and white. flatten layers and there you go, quick and easy.

@nikkers thank you for the advice
