Newbie alert! - Blending

Since no one will help me :( http://www.teamphotoshop.com/forum/vbforum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=10509

I need to make a banner for a charity's website.
I want to blend a picture (http://www.surestartgloucester.org....s/starvaell.jpg
) into just a plain lilac colour.

How do i do this? :confused:

Thanks

I can't see your pic but I think you're talking about a duotone.

Go under: image > mode > grayscale

then: image > mode > duotone and select your color.

WCCP....Check your original post....I played a little during lunch yesterday.
