I'm looking to give my pictures of a shipwreck I took a few days ago an old/antique look, and was wondering if anyone had any advice? I wanted to have the effect on the paper too, I don't just want to add a sepia tone in Photoshop and print them on normal photo paper.
 
Maybe get yourself some proper textured photo paper, to get the old fashioned effect on the print too?
 
And maybe add some noise/grain into the photo?
 
sepia, scratched up old styley effects, vignetting etc?

Might sound daft, but a freebie download that's dead simple can do all that in one or two actions I think. It's called photoscape, and is what I used before I found the wonderful world of GIMP and then CS3.
 
I expect you're looking for a more sophisticated solution, but this site is an easy way to do a fun retro look.
