Used Photoshop CS2

NOTE: Even though this was done using Photoshop, you may do this in any image editor that has a curve adjustment option. I know GIMP and Paint Shop Pro have a layers area that allows you to do opacities, but I'm not sure about anything else.


This tutorial helps you get through a basic cross-processing technique.

***I accidently put a squiggly instead of an asterisk next to the stock name. I'll edit it tomorrow.

Hey man,

I stumbled across your tutorial when browsing Deviant Art.

Your intro says:
"Cross-processing techniques make fundamental irreversible changes to the film, and curves in Photoshop or any other image editor for that matter, help simulate this effect on an image."

However I just thought I would stop by and add that you can actually add the curves tool in Photoshop temporarily; they are called adjustment layers.

You can add them through the layers palette (the half white, half black circle) or by going to Layer -> New Adjustment Layer -> Curves.

This is known as "non-destructive editing" since you can add all of your color-corrections; levels, hue/saturation, brightness/contrast, curves, everything; without ever actually altering the original image. So if in 6 months you want to come back to it, you can; and still edit the original curves parameters that you used!

Anyways have a good one! You made a really cool effect in the tutorial, I just thought I would add this little footnote in case you didn't know, or in case anyone that reads it didn't know. More knowledge, you know?
