cantoda,

Unfortunately I don't have the 350Z Limited Edition version of Photoshop... just version 6.5.

I do like that menu though.

Can you possibly shed some light on it for me.... purty pa-lease?

Okay, since you said please...

Selection is the most time consuming part of the process. Use your lasso tool to select your rough area then use Quick mask to refine the area. Quick mask allows you to 'paint' your selection so you can define it with more detail. Once you have your selection, save it (Select/Save Selection) this way if you deselect accidently you won't have to do the selection process over again.

Now, go to Image/Adjust/Hue Saturation and start moving the Hue slider. You will notice the color of your selection change. To intensify the color move the Saturation slider to the right, move it to the left to desaturate or remove the color so that only gray tones remain. Once you have the color you are looking for you can further refine it by using Image/Adjust/Color Balance. To darken or lighten your image use Levels.

This is a very brief explaination and there are many ways to acheive similar results but this should at least get you started.

Thanks for the info, cantoda! All this time I have been trying to use the "replace color" option to no avail.

Just to ask... those options you have on the picture you posted are not real... correct? I mean is there a way to set up some type of "macro" or something to save a specific color range to a name? I assume it was just a clever image that you created, but I just though I'd ask... you know, just to be sure

Thanks again,
-Chris

The menu is fake but Photoshop does have a macro type feature called Actions, take a look at the help file for more info.
