Web HostingEvery webmaster who wants publish their website has to put it on a hosting account, which are provided by hosting companies. Hosting a web site put in layman's terms, is making a website available on the internet. Technically web hosting involves having a server or servers in a datacenter which provides the servers with high speed connectivity, reliable power, ventilation and technical service. Each datacenter ofcourse provides different services and has differing facilities. The web host mainly focuses on keeping the web server in good running order, making sure all software is up to date and protected against intrusion. What types of hosting are thereThere are many types of hosting out there, the hosting package you need will be determined by your site. Most people start off with a smaller hosting package in terms of hard drive space and bandwidth usage. As your site grows then your hosting package will need to accomodate this.Also if you use a specific type of programming then you will also need to find a host that meets your needs in that respect. Most people go through the stages of starting off in shared hosting (many sites sharing a server), to a reseller hosting package (normally has more disk space, more bandwith and the ability to create several websites), then to a VPS host (where you have a virtual private server, which behaves like a dedicated server but you are still sharing a server, just with less people), and then on to a dedicated server (where you have the whole server to yourself. |

Coloring a Black and white image
Coloring black and white images is a a fairly easy task, but it is time consuming if you have a very large and detailed image. By detailed i would mean that the areas that you want to color have intricate edges. For example, a black and white box would be quick because it's straight lines, whereas coloring a person would be trickier. Lets start out with a sample black and white image to color: ![]() Now zoom in using the zoom tool on the left (magnifying glass), let's focus on coloring the hand. We need to select the hand with one fo the selection tools, choose whichever one you are more comfortable with, i use the "polygon lasso tool" , this is the hand selected on my black and white image ![]() Easy so far yup? ofcourse it is Next step is to add the color, go to image > adjustments > variations You'll get a window like the one below, here's where your eye comes in, you'll have to chose what variations make for the best color. (In mine i used More red - more yellow - darker) ![]() Click OK, deselect the hand and zoom out again, hey presto ![]() here's a few others i did, i will also be adding a tutorial on repairing scratches, cracks and splits on old fotos. ![]() If you have any questions please feel free to register and post them, it's free afterall -------------------- Get Tough - Take photoshop by the horns - photoshop tutorials

cheers
just playing around, i'd seen some papers on using hue/saturation and colorize to add color but i didn't like the effect it gave so played with other things on there and came across this. -------------------- Get Tough - Take photoshop by the horns - photoshop tutorials

good job Leo
that will definetly come in handy. I've tried the colorize method, but it always ends up looking really fake. This is much better. -------------------- |

I use the pick and paint method. It takes a long time, and it's a pain sometimes..
