on photo editor: how do you give a person like blue eyes but the rest of the picture is black and white?

Answer 1

many editing software,like photoshop,have a selection and mask tools,that can isolate the wanted area from actions taken on the rest of the pic.
in photoshop,if the pic is colored,draw the selection carefully around the eyes,invert it,desaturate the pic,it turns black and white,while the eyes still colored.
if the pic is black and white,draw the selection to the eyes and apply any colore you want by the brush tool...
its better the isolated area made as a new layer,and work can be done perfectly before the layers merged again...
if you can`t do that,send me the pic and I can help you

Answer 2

1. Copy the picture as a new layer.
2. Click on the new layer
3. Go to Image>Adjustment>
Brightness /Saturation
4. Slide the Saturation back to 0 (the picture should now be B&W)
5. Zoom to make the eyes fill your screen
6 Select eraser and adjust it to be smaller than the eyes, slightly fuzzy edged, 100% on the eraser power or opacity
7. Erase the eyes of the B&W layer
8. Go to Layers> Merge Down

This should get you what you want. Occasionally on the erasing the eyes, let up on the mouse button. That way if you screw up, you can always use the Edit>Delete step to get you back to the last step.

Hope this helps. I do things like this quite a bit.

One of the best photo editors is Paint Shop Pro. It's easy to use and easy to understand and do what you want to photos.

Answer 4

Please look at www.myspace.com/photoenhance, I've done pictures like this, unfortunately the software I use is no longer in circulation since the company has been bought out and it is a much older version.
Some I've done...
