Description
i will be using photoshop cs2 for this tutorial.1. pick your image. i will be using the one above, taken from *yellow-stock 's gallery.
2. if your image isn't already greyscale, go to image > adjustments > desaturate. do not just convert it to greyscale, as you'll be needing colours. (:
3. now duplicate your background layer, and set it to screen at 29%.
4. create a new raster layer, and fill it with the colour #0C0B23. set it to lighten at 19%.
5. create a new raster layer, and fill it with the colour #BB6178. set it to darken at 12%.
6. create your last raster layer and fill it with the colour #BBBA78. set it to soft light at 31%.
7. go to layers > new adjustment layer > colour balance. fill this in:
shadows: +14, -18, -27
midtones: +11, +25, +20
highlights: -13, 0, +15
make sure '
reserve luminosity' is checked.8. go to layers > new adjustment layer > curves. fill this in:
input: 17
output: 20
9. go to layers > new adjustment layer > channel mixer. check 'monochrome' and fill this in:
red: +88
green: +26
blue: -38
10. go to layers > new adjustment layer > brightness/contrast and fill this in:
brightness: +10
contrast: +15
now merge your layers and you're done!
if you image doesn't look similar, play around with the settings until you're happy.

I use Photoshop Elements 6.0 (which is basically the same as the US 'c' versions)
May I ask what is a raster layer?
I can't seem to find it....

Layer > new fill layer > solid colour is a bit more simple.
