Have you tried this?

1. Duplicate the layer you want to play with. 2. In the duplicate layer, use //Desaturate to make it a pseudo grayscale image.
3. Select a monochrome gradient (e.g., blue to white or blue to transparent).
4. Use ///Gradient Map
and hey, presto!

You may wish to start by using the color-to-alpha filter first to convert the white pixels to transparent, say as step 2a, if you really want transparency.

Any transparent or white pixels are transparent. I tried converting to grey-scale as a first step. Now, I don't know how to get the blue color into the image. I tried selecting sections by color and replacing but that looked horible. Is it possible to not just end up with a matte, all blue image, when I am done. It would be great if when converting to one color the different colors were preserved (red converts to blue and yellow gets converted to a lighter blue). I hope this makes sense.

I am looking for a script ore something that could automate this process. Any suggedtions would be great. Again, I am a newbie so please make any responses easy to follow.

Thank-you in advance.

Maybe you can have a try to :
right clic -> Tools -> Color TOols -> Colorize And there you can choose the hue / saturation / brightness

You could follow this technique using "blue" for your "sepia" tone. http://gimpguru.org/Tutorials/SepiaToning2/ -----
