duotone effect?

Hello! I was wondering if anyone could tell me how they did this ?

Did they take a picture and make it a duotone?

Is there any tutorial that could show me this? Thanks a lot for your help!

are you taking about the flash?

hi!

Not the flash, the background (the spiral-ly thing).

I'm guessing they took a picture and then somehow made it yellow-ish.

another example are the menu options. you see how the pictures have a greenish tint? I was wondering how they did that.

take a pic and turn it to grayscale (image > mode > grayscale) then turn it back to RGB (image > mode > RGB color) then goto image > adjustments > color balance and change it to the color you want. that should work for what you want.

Or Image>Adjust>Desat then Image>Adjust>Hue Sat check colorize and move the Hue and Sat sliders around....

Hue: Tint/Color
Sat: How much of the color comes through
Lightness: The brightness of the entire image...I wouldnt mess w/ that too much...tends to wash out the colors and make things imbalanced

btw... the shell thing is in flash

oh wow! works great!

thanks a lot!
