How do you edit a picture to where the whole picture is black and white except for the lips?

One basic technique is to start with a color picture and then create a selection around the object to stay colored. Then invert the selection and remove the color from this inverse selection.





This is a tutorial with example for Photoshop

You can get this photo effect using Screen Dash. Its the only photo editor that can take screenshots, do paint and photo editing, and host images. Thus, you can share images with your friends and family. Its free, easy to use, and provides very professional photo editing





You can just use the crop tool and make everything black and white except the lips.How do you edit a picture to where the whole picture is black and white except for the lips?
鈥?Adobe Photoshop!! ONE SPOT COLOR


What I usually do is select (magnetic lasso or magic wand tool) the part that has to remain colored and then press ctr+shift+j which copies the selected area to a different layer. Then I click back on the background layer and press ctrl+shift+u which turns it to Black and white except for the portion on the different layer. Once it is done you can combine the two layers by pressing ctrl+e and save it..
It is selective coloring.





(assuming you have photoshop)


open photo in Photoshop


go to layers - click duplicate layer - click OK


go to image - adjustments - click desaturate


choose eraser tool (with opacity %26amp; flow at 100%, hard - edged brush) and erase through the top layer to reveal the color beneath.





or you can use the history brush.

This is how I would do it in Photoshop:





1. Copy Background layer


2. Lasso off the lips (or magic wand)


3. Eraser the BW (the color is underneath)





Vola! Colored lips =)
