Photoshop CS3: How to Get This "Retro" Effect!

OK, I've been seeing this REALLY awesome retro look on images and am not sure how to do it! Any of you know how? Here is a link to a gallery that shows this type of effect: (you'll have to scroll over to image 3)

thank you in advance!

Hi Jacalyn,
Here's one way (among many) to accomplish the effect in 2 minutes or less.
Work from a COPY of your original.
First, using hue/saturation, reduce the saturation to give a "faded" effect.
Add a new layer; fill that layer with the color of the "tint" you want to
apply. Change the blending mode for that layer to "Color" and adjust the
opacity to suit.
For the irregular vignette, add another layer and fill it with the dark tone
you want for the vignette. Add a layer mask filled with white. With a very
large, soft brush, paint on the mask with black to allow the center to
become visible.
When done, flatten & save in whatever format you wish -- or save it with the
layers intact as a PSD if you think you may want to make more changes.
As I said, there are other ways to accomplish this. There are always
multiple ways in Photoshop, but this is quick & dirty.

  • How to get this skin effect on a black model?

    hello everyone!!!
    i was wondering if anyone knows how to get this final effect on a picture with a black model?

    1. Original image
    2. Convert to grayscale, then back to RGB
    3. Approximate color of sample
    4. Curves to add contrast
    Final.  Dodge selected quartertones
    If desired, add a very, very slight noise. Not in image here. (Add'l layer: Gaussian, Mono, very low opacity)

    You will need to uninstall, run the Cleaner tool and reinstall you adobe applications. Adobe apps don't take kindly to inplace updates of the OS on Macs.

    Hello,
    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    * [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    * [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • I have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    i have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.it works on my iphone 5 & it originally worked on my ipad.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    On the MBP, in iTunes, switch to Song view and enable the iCloud Status column by pulling down View > View options and selecting the option for "iCloud Status." Close the small window. Look for any tracks that have a status of "waiting." If you see several of them disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key. Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, then open it again and turn iTM back on. Let it compelete the scan. Wait until all tracks that are "waiting" have a status of either "matched" or "uploaded."
    On the iPad, turn off iTunes Match then launch the Music app and let the contents clear out. Power cycle the iPad for good measure, then re-enable the service once all the tracks in iTunes have been processed.

    the flood filter is in my plugins folder along with the other plugins I have, but not in cc 2014. It's also in Adobe bridge associated with cc 2014, but not in cc 2014 Photoshop. i hope you get this because i forwarded  your info to HCS and now I'm all mixed up as to this gets forward.

    Unfortunately, you are not addressing Adobe here in the user forums.
    However, there are many highly experienced volunteer users here willing to help.
    Can you please clarify:  are you saying that your Flood filter (whatever that is) is in your Bridge folder but not in Photoshop?
    UPDATE:  I Googled your Flood Filter and discovered it's not an Adobe filter at all.  Have you contacted its manufacturer, Flaming Pear?  What do they say?

  • HT4929 I have (or had?) 2 alias  I followed the instructions to go from MobileMe to iCloud. But the alias stayed on MobileMe server (?) How to get this to iCloud?

    I have (or had?) 2 alias My main account is on iCloud. I followed the instructions to go from MobileMe to iCloud. But the alias stayed on MobileMe server (?) How to get this to iCloud? Not possible to put them into icloud as alias. How to keep  it working?HELP HELP because people sending me things to this email and since today no excess any more to the mobile me server? And how to move this?????
    <Emails Edited by Host>

    Firstly, I note that your profile states that you are using OS X 10.5.8, in order to use iCloud on your computer you need OS X 10.7.2 or better.
    Secondly, I have asked for your email address to be edited out. Post your address in an open thread is a sure way to be bombarded by unwanted email, remember it will be here long after you have resolved your problem, for automated detection software to find.
    If you want people to contact you, enable others to see your email address in your profile.
    Finally, are you sure that these additional addresses are aliases and not sub accounts on a family pack, aliases from MobileMe should transfer to an iCloud when you migrate.

    Command-Shift-3 and 4 works just fine on several Macs that I have here.
    Try restarting your Mac....or post in the specific support area for your Mac model....for more advice.
