Phoebe, I especially live the first one. It's a romantic photo to start with, and everything just seems to blend in better. It's a lovely shot. :)

Well, the blue face was me fiddling with the hue/saturation/lightness of the selection, which is under the Image menu, in Adjustments.

I don't know of any online tutorials I'm afraid, but I'm pretty much self-taught. I just played with it until I worked out what bits did. If I can get the hang of it, I'm sure anyone can!

My top tip is Ctrl-Alt-D, which feathers selections, so they don't look jagged. :D

I make a copy of all the pink bits [and sometimes the hair] that I have to change, then on that layer, I make a gradient map with the range of blues that I want.

It's stunningly easy once you figure it out ^_^

I like the first picture more than the second one, but both are still marvelously done

*snicker* I like manipulating things in photoshop. I've got this nightcrawler picture I made but unfortunately i can't post it. it's got naughty bits. if there's someone who can put my pic on their site so that i can post it's link on nightscrawlers, i'd be much obliged.

oh damn that rule that keeps nightscrawlers from becoming a porn site.:D
