How to Change Colors of Images - .Astro - May 31, 2011
Alright, so people have been asking me how I was able to change the color of something, without messing it up and making it look LQ. So anyways, let's get on with it ..
You will need
> Photoshop
> A brain
> Ability to pay attention
Okay, first, find an image you want to use. For my example, I'll use this Apple.
[img]http://cdn1.iconfinder.com/data/icons/our_ukraine/128/Apple.png[/img]
After opening it in Photoshop, use the "Polygonal Lasso Tool" and cut out the part of the apple where it's bitten, the leaf, and the stem. Once you've done that, Copy and paste it on a new layer. Hide the new layer with the copied part on it.
Next, head over to the "Adjustments tool box" show in the picture.

Click on "Hue and Saturation" and select which color you'd like to use for the apple's color.

Next, merge the layers together.(The "Color" layer, and the original image.)
Make sure that the "Color" layer is above the original image.
Once you've merged the two layers together, then unhide the layers where you cut out the parts of the apple. The final outcome should look similar to this(With a better cut, of course.):

*Note: You can always change it around like take the leaf off of the apple, or the stem, so it looks more suited.

I got that from Iconfinder using the .PNG file format.
You can find many things for that if you look up renders on Google like -
"Apple Render"
