Our very own Nikhil Varma has done it quite sometime ago... It started a coloring rage long time back.
Ya.. Me too was part of the magic.

A black & white car photo to blue & black!!! The black thing is tougher to make. As the method deals with hue and black is not a hue!!!
Small xtra effect in my colored cars... I'm the driver there...*www.clayaikencdparties.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/ClayWINK.gif The original car has no driver!
My way of watermarking my pics, realistically!!!

Others.. Cool Web Design Effects
There r some software too... BlackMagic for example.
