Does anyone know how to convert photos to the effect above… I’ve tried and tried with Flash and Photoshop7 with no joy at all…
It seems so basic… and it’s a style i could really go for…
Any help would be tops…
Cheers
Capt,

It’s done with the Threshold tool…
Make sure your image is in RGB mode. In the layers panel, there’s the little icons at the bottom. Click the one that’s a circle, half black half white. You’ll get a menu box appear. Choose Threshold from that, and you’ll get a slider to play with.
Use that to adjust how you want it to look. 🙂
To colour it, go back to that light/dark tool and pick Solid Colour…
