Adding colour to old scanned black and white images.
I've been a regular reader of the magazine for a while now and have a number of the cd tutorials. At Christmas I bought myself the latest Elements 9 and have since been experimenting. Anyway today, having some time on my hands I was looking at an old cd that was free with issue 100, and followed the instructions on how to add colour to an old B&W image. I used the example image to start with and all was perfect. However when I came to do the same with an old scanned image I couldn't create the same effect. When I first try to enhance / adjust colour / colour variations, instead of the pop up where the various red / blue / green can be altered all there is lighter and darker. Does this mean that I can't use this procedure or what? Or am I doing something wrong? Any help would be much appreciated.
