Remember...
If you do one of my tutorials, follow the steps the first time, If you like and do it again, you don't have to do things exactly the same, if your way works better, use your way!! Maybe don't exactly set the settings to twenty, se them to 17! Anything you want.

How to make vintage images.
First, find a good picture of the sky or anything with a lot of blue. In this tutorial, we will be using mainly adjustment layers. This is mine:

Now go to adjustments in the layer palette and click on Brightness/Contrast

Set it as shown:

Now go to Hue/Saturation on the layers palette. And set it as shown:


Now go to levels in adjustments in the layers palette, and change the channel (RGB) to red. Set as shown:


It should look something like this:

Now add another adjustment layer as we have done before, with Hue/Saturation, and make sure you check the Colorize box beacuse you have to. Set as shown:


Now it looks like this:

Now you're done, just change the layers (with the Hue/Saturation we just did) opacity to 59% or whatever is good!
The final image:

Now go to adjustments in the layer palette and click on Brightness/Contrast

Set it as shown:

Making a cool background for anything
(The pictures in this have really bad quality so they don't look as good as they did on photoshop)
In this tutorial, we will be making a background that could work for anything. It looks like this in the end:

To start, use a gradient with a nice light shade of brown, and a very dark shade of brown.

Next go to Adjustments in the layers palette, and choose Brightness/Contrast

And use the presets from this image:

Now grab this image:

And paste it above the gradient layer. Now make a new layer and fill it with a green/baige color (66500f). Set the blending mode to overlay. Now go to filter>texture>texturizer and set the presets as shown.

Now all you have to do is make sure the layer you copied in from my post is set to Overlay, and that it's above the gradient layer but below the texturized layer. Make sure they are all under the adjustment layer, and you are finished!!
