Thanks Paul. I just found out that I qualify for an academic license, which is a lot cheaper than the regular version, and ordered Photoshop. Now all I hope is that I will actually find the time to learn the very basics, at least. Marcus -- Am 25.03.2008 um 18:39 schrieb [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yes, it's a PhotoShop process. I should have been clear about that. PhotoShop is quite expensive, but it's also very powerful. I'd be lost wihout it. However, I know others do just fine using other software. I'm not sure, but PS Elements, which is much less expensive, may have channel mixer cap

Thanks Marcus (and all others who responded). I use the channel mixer for BW conversions most of the time. After clicking on "monochromatic," I usually start with about 80% red, 12% green and 10% blue, then fiddle with the sliders. A bit less of one, a bit more of another. I just work the number
