I was wondering how I can change the colors in an image so that all the colors are a hue of blue. Like yellow would be light blue, black would be dark blue, ect. If you have any ideas please post them. I tried to add a layer infront of the picture and make it a little transparent, but that didn't work very well.

Thanks!

Bottom of the Layers Palette, click and hold the Adjustment Layer icon (Diagonally split circle)...select Hue/Saturation.

Colorize box...checked.

Start playing with the sliders.

as utopian said
but b4 u do that set the foreground color to the shade of blue your looking for as the 'Colorize' option uses this as the starting color from which you can adjust the sliders

Okay, I did as you guys suggested, but the color it starts with is a much more faded shade of blue then what I am looking for. I tried sliding the colors but it has to be the exact color.

You can also use:
Image --> Adjustments --> Variations
You'll get the idea when you get there.

Pt 1. Image > Mode > Grayscale
Pt 2. Image > Mode > Duotone
Pt 3. Choose two colours for your duotone. For this blue effect, I would use a Rich Black and a blue. This way you choose exactly what colour you want. I think this may be what you are looking for.

I use "Image>Adjustments>Color Balance..."

Then I take the slider for blue and take it all the way up (100%) to blue. Then click highlights and shadows (on the bottom) and do the same for them. Make sure "preserve luminosity" is checked, and it won't go pale on you. Sometimes values of 80% all around look better than 100%, but playing around with it works best.

Anybody else use the color balancerizer?

as you may have noticed... their is multiple ways to do the "same thing" but they do all do somethng a little different, etrain.
personall i would use a adjustment layer because you don't harm the original layer at all...
