lightbody Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Hi all, My first post. I absolutely love Paint.net, and was happy to make a donation a moment ago, which I'll repeat in future. Please keep up the good work. I am looking for an easy way to deal with faded photos from the 70s and 80s - you know the ones - they go orangey/red. I used to use Paintshop Pro and it had an effect built in that dealt with them. Thanks for any advice. - Rob Lightbody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishi Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I kinda like vintage pictures. Lots of times that the orange/reddish effect actually enhances the picture in such an artistic way. You can use the Curves tool (Adjustments>Curves). Change the setting from Luminosity to RGB. Uncheck Green and Blue and lower the red line. This should lessen the red a bit. You can also adjust the blue a bit more. The Curves+ plugin even has more features. I'm sure other people would have other ideas on how to do this.
