Windows 7: Gimp Photo Effect Help

Hi,

Would it be possible for someone to point me in the direction of a tutorial or provide some pointers on how to turn a picture from color to black and white but keep certain areas such as babies eyes in color like the example below?

I have done a bit with gimp but no expert to figure it out and can't find a tutorial for it?



Any help will be greatly appreciated

Hi JDobbbsy1987,

I was just about to sign out when I saw your thread, but I'll write you a tutorial tomorrow It's just a little use of layer masks.

That would be awesome, thanks Tom

Hi Jamie,

I've done it I need to add a few finishing touches to the video, captions etc. but here it is:



I went a little bit over the eyelid in the video But apart from that, I think that's it. This is my first ever video tutorial, so I didn't have a clue what to do! If you need any further explanation, then let me know and I'll do my best to answer

Tom

That worked perfect.

Thanks Tom

No worries I'm glad I could help!

Tom
