OK Not really a old pic but a new action I found that makes new pics look old.

Original

What a great conversion! How did you do it, and which post program did you use? The only thing that looks different from the original is the sky...The clouds are gone!

I found an action called Old Paper and started playing with it in PS CS4. This was my first attempt so it is pretty rough. It lets you control a lot of the functions so I am going to have to play with it a bit to get it perfected.

Thanks for the info! I do nt have CS 4, but plan on getting Photoshop sometime soon. Would just Photoshop be enough to do the same thing?

Nice work! Aren't actions great? It looks just like some of the old photos my dad passed on to me.

Love the sky in the coloured one. Well done on the old time treatment it looks authentic.
