Color editing

Hi everybody,

sorry of my English, but I try to make it understandable,
My problem is that I scanned a picture (Grayscale) and resize it into a small one. I want that the picture is still like grayscale but instead of black I'll use another color. (remember, new layer with the color - set transparency - isn't good for me).
Is there any way to change the (set of) color(s) in the picture?

Thanks forward...

If you are taking this photo to a page layout application like QuarkXpress or something you can change that grayscale photo to anycolor you want in the page layout application.

If you are wanting to change it in Photoshop, first you'll have to make it a NON grayscale color mode. (cannot make grayscale mode contain color)

do this : Image/mode/RGB

now to make it the color you want....

Image/adjust/hue and saturation

just play around in there you'll find the color your looking for
