I had a play with both of the above tutorials and have posted the outcome with a original snap,
both have merits and make a real easy actions

Mucker that's a great link and have been reading through the pages there ( Have you thought to put it into the library ?)

I didn't see mention of this in the above linked tutorials, but you can also achieve a similar effect by converting your image to CMYK, then Gaussian blurring the K/Black channel (I used a blur of 8.0 for this example). Revert back to RGB, save as JPEG.
