Photo editing eyes...?

Question: Photo editing eyes!.!.!.!?

I want to leave everything in the picture black and white except the eyes, which I want to be blue, green, whatever!. Anyone know how to do this!? I have Paint Shop Pro XI but any tips from Photoshop users could work roughly the same!. Thanks!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Thats really easy, but this is the PHOTOSHOP way of doing it!. Its really similar though!.
1) open the picture
2) make your photo black and white, by going to image > adjustments > desaturate (this might be different on paint shop pro)
3) add another new layer, and zoom in to your eyes!.
4) using the polygonal lasso tool, select around the eyes!. (Its the one where you click around your eyes) zoom in to help you!.
5) choose the colour you want your eyes to be and then fill them in with that colour
6) set the layer style to overlay!. The layer styles can be found on top of the layers palette!.
done! :)

I haven't used photoshop in a while but the way I used to do something similar was to used the magic wand tool, selected the region(s) that I DIDN'T want to change, invert the selection, and then apply the filter!. When you invert the selection you end up with everything you want changed selected!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
