Question: Photo software or web site!? !?
Is there a website where you can save you pictures and edit them!. For example my sister wants a picture of her and her husband and she wants to change it to all black and white except she wants her lips and his bow tie to be red!. Is there a place I can do this for free or any software and you can recommend!? Thanks =)Www@QuestionHome@Com

You can make Black and White photos with color in them using these free online image editors:

Make the photo black and white!. Repaint over items you want in color with color filter!.

Splashup

Create a dupe layer Convert to black and white!. Erase the parts you want in color!.

FotoFlexer

Duplicate the layer and change it to grayscale Erase items you want to be in color in the BW layer, so that the color shows through!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

This method of selective color can be used in Photoshop and GIMP both:

First open your photo in your editing program!.!.

Then go to Layer - Duplicate Layer

Click OK

Then go to Image - Adjustments - Hue / Saturation

Drag the Saturation slider all the way to the left to make the photo black and white!.

Click OK

Then get the ERASER tool from the tool box on the left side of the screen!. It is usually the next tool under the clone stamp tool!. Just hover your mouse over the tool, and it will say Eraser!.

When you have selected the Eraser, go up to the Brush options box at the top of the screen, and click on the downfacing arrow!. Set the Hardness of the brush to 100% so you will have accurate control of selection!. You may also need to raise or lower the brush size to suit!.

Erase away any black and white from where you want the color to be revealed!.

When done go to
Layer - Flatten Image

Then just do a Save As to wherever you want to save the photo!.
