sorry quad... yea the link above is basically what you need to do.... you open the channel mixer.... and change the red channel from 100% to 0%.... then the blue channel from 0% to 100%..... then you need to click the drop down menu and go to the blue channel and do the same, this time moving the blue from 100% to 0% and the red from 0% to 100%.... and that it.

I usually have a play with the saturation of each channel too.... using the hue/saturation menu.... as well as re-adjusting the levels. have fun :thumbup:

There is a much easier way than swapping channels, and it takes 2 seconds. Duplicate the background layer (ctrl+j), invert it (ctrl+i), and set the blend mode to "color".

No prob Arch. Try doing that on a normal photo, and you can get awesome effects. Better yet, do it to a normal photo, and then use the channel mixer to go black and white, using 100% blue.
