There are different things you can do!. One is sepia finish kinda golden!. Then on Photoshop if you just mess around with the different finishes you'll find the one you're looking for!. I've used it but I can't think of the name!!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

With Adobe Lightroom, it's easy!. It comes with a "pre-set" called antique!.

Photoshop, try a little Embossing and sharpening so it looks just a bit rough, and you can always convert to black and white!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Sepia Toner will make them look antique!.!.i personally also like black and white pics for a more classic look!Www@QuestionHome@Com
