I change to put a couple of pics to Sepia, but can't remember how. I know there was a thread on here before, but I can't find it. Any help appreciated. I use PS7.

The problem is that the description 'Sepia' covers every effect from some rather light yellowish ones to deep rich brown tones, so it's a bit of a personal taste as to which you prefer.

You can get a good result by playing with the RGB and saturation levels, but it's probably easier to just use a filter and then adjust to taste afterwards. I use Virtual Photographer which is a free download and has a lot of useful colour and mono filters including a couple of sepia ones. It works as a plugin with Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro.

Virtual Photographer gives you so much control over the final image it's a must have.
