I was just wondering if anyone has any good digital Cross Processing methods, that give a professional and authentic finish?

Color Efex Kit.

Thanks CMS.
I thinking more of techniques to do it manually in photoshop.
I know a few ways already but they are a bit complexed to write out.

I was just wondering how other people do it

I use among other adjustments a simple curve to recreate the cross process look of days gone, I have saved it as a layered Tiff which you can download from here -

I also have Alien Skin's Exposure 2 plug in which has many cross process looks that simulate a variety of different films, and these are pretty good.

You can also look at Photokit Color 2:http://www.pixelgenius.com/downloads.html
It has many tools including many cross processing looks that are adjustable because they automatically end up as layers.

I think selective colour can also work pretty well for this

Adobe Photoshop CS 3 has a preset for it in Curves. You can apply that and adjust from there. You can access it from the pull down menu in the curves dialog box.
