wasnt sure either, but i followed your intructions and it worked - unzipped it to the desktop and then right click and it offers to intstall it via the dropdown menu! still not sure of what all the other files were for, but the aim is now in my photoshop cs2 - yoh! chuffed, thankyou - now for a little practice on some piccies.. :O)

What started out as something that seemed simple...became more complicated than expected...thanks pixelhunter...I haven't done what you recommended yet, but it seems to have worked for others. I really like your pic...even the original...that one needs to be put on canvas....

Another way:

duplicate your layer, mode screen.
duplicate the "screen" layer

Add a curve layer and adjust to your taste
Add a hue/saturation layer and lower saturation

- Add a Curves layer, and drag the black slider to about "Input 25".

???

When I do it, the picture come all dark. What is wrong with my step ?

Thank you,

- Still on copy -> Blending Options - Alt-click "Underlying Layer" and drag the white(on the right) slider to about 112.
- Add a Curves layer, and drag the black slider to about "Input 25".[/quote]

No idea. Post your file.

When I move the black slider to the left, density increase.

I'm nort sure what you're doing. The black slider doesn't move left.

And be sure to have "Show Amout of" set to Light (0-255), and not Pigment/Ink.

(btw - no pixelmanipulation in the dog-pic AT ALL...all non destructive layer-work)

all i'm using atm is the assign aim and convert back to rgb-thingy...and actually...i don't think that this can be all. where's the mystery? what did i miss. help me

also just look at the photos they are just amazing places in the first place. Saby on to the way i would get the look as well.

Dear Pixelhunter or other that master this technique, what not create a action with this and share it with us ?
