Hello,

In the Windows XP Visual Guidelines (http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~horton/cs305/info/wxp/folders.htm#specialFolders), they mention how to make watermark images that goes at the bottom right corner of Special Folders such as "My Images", or "My Music". They talk about image tinting :

"The large watermark in the bottom right of the folder is 150x150 pixels. It's designed to be anchored to the bottom of the page. Tint the image blue (R71G94B148) and screen back to about 12% opacity with an alpha channel."

I don't know how to perform this blue tinting on my image in Photoshop. How do I proceed ?

Thanks in advance !

JC

Well. I tried to use this option already. But this feature doesn't tint all in blue... all colors must switch to blue...

I found how to do the image tinting, and according to MS Guidelines.

Add a blue layer (R71G94B148) above your image. Set the layer blending mode to "Color".

Then set your image opacity to 12%...

That's it !

Variations (image-->adjustments-->variations)

Those work as well.

Desaturate then use color balance.
