Some photograph morphing tricks

Hi,
I have some snaps of me and my wife which are color. I have seen some lovely pics in which the faces and skin is BW, cloths are color and background is BW. How to do such stuff in gimp? Tanveer

Go through the GIMP tutorials:

Also, gimpguru: http://www.gimpguru.org/ (there's a big tutorials section).

And in particular, this tutorial: http://www.gimpguru.org/Tutorials/SelectiveColorization/

Cheers, Dave.

PS. I don't know if Eric is on this list - if you are, shout! You're one of my heros.

Great tutorial. But one hitch.In my case I want to make B&W a small area. So I am guessing I need to interchange the layers. I.e color over BW. But when I make the original image Greyscale, any layer I create above it is also greyscale. How to make a layer greyscale, any ideas?

Not necessarily. But you certainly can.

There's another gimpguru tutorial (linked from that one) on that issue. It's also on gimp.org - I don't know the URL off the top of my head, but if you have a quick hunt around you should find it easily.

Cheers, Dave.

I would do this nice and simple. Make sure that you have the areas you want to be greyscale selected (either select them or select the color bits and invert the selection), then go to Colors->Desaturate
