CS2 Desaturatehey,
i just tried my first desaturate then colorize by doing the following: desaturate > new layer > colorize it works good. but is there a way to get back the original image colour instead of having to pick your own through the Hue tool. EG: the pic is of a cat. i want to desaturate the whole image but just bring back the original colour in the eyes? cheers. Nikon D70

Jamie - easiest way is to do your desat as a new layer over the original, and then you can erase the layer over the eyes to reveal the original colour

A small refinement to that technique would be:
