Be my fan on FacebookCreate a vintage photo effect in Photoshop
Today I was playing with Photoshop looking for some interesting photo effect and I found a quick and easy way to convert a modern photo in a vintage one.
I have already created an action to simulate this effect in Vintage colors effect action for Photoshop, but I am sure you’ll like this effec too.
Follow me through this very easy tutorial and you’ll find by yourself how easy is to achieve this effect.
1) Open your photo
2) Set your foreground and background colors respectively to #ff0000 and #00ff00
3) Duplicate the photo layer
4) With the newly created layer use a Gradient Map
5) On the same layer, use Blending Options
6) Select Blend Mode to Color and Opacity to 50%
7) Flatten the image
8) Apply an Add Noise filter to the only layer you should have
9) Set the filter with 2% Gaussian Monochromatic values
10) Enjoy the result
You may need to play with the last two steps values in order to fit the effect to your needs.
And for the laziest of you, I made an action that does the task automatically! Download the action.

A simple but a nice looking effect.
The tutorial is great.Could you please indicate which gradient should be use for grayscale mapping.
Exelente!
great tutorial! thanks for the action! :D
great! thanx for the tutorial!
nwayz, i played around with it using the following colors:
foreground color: FF00EA (pink)
background color: CAE200 (lime green)
it produced nice results still.. ;)
thanx for the ps action..hehe
I love it!! thats wut i was looking for!!
help… i downloaded the action but i don’t know where to find it?? where can i find it?? help….
i dont really think that looks like its a vintage photo it looks just like a green contrast we were born for this!!!!!
this person is absoulutley right i hated that part mi picture loooks kind of bad i want mi picture to look more vintagey i gotta get thruu this.
i really like this tutorial..real nice..what’s even more interesting is the different kinds of results you get when you play around with all sorts of colors and blending modes..
but i guess, the picture you have (the car) is really well suited for this effect..maybe that’s why other people were complaining why they didn’t have the same results that you showed here.. ;)
Do you have a larger size version of the photo used here?
cool~~~i like it,thanks!
vary good
simple & nice, great to come across this tutorial.
“And for the laziest of you, I made an action that does the task automatically! Download the action.”
Thanks for thinking of me! =p
how do I run the action??
thx!
I really don’t want to be mean but my photo looks crappy nd I did it exactly like this :/
Thanks so much, this was awesome!
Great effect. I used it and it works well. I also add in some yellow and desaturate a little
Great! Really cool!
this was excellent thank you heaps <3
simple & nice, great to come across this tutorial.
Great and simple tutorial! The colors that you chose are perfect.
Nice job!
This is great. You have no idea how glad I am to have found this site, and I really appreciate your effort in putting this together.
Just to add to the one person who said it looks bad. On certain pictures a Blend Mode Opacity of 50% will be too much, but if you experiment around on these pictures, it’s usually just a case of setting this level at 25%-35% instead.
Thanks! This looks cool, but I don’t know if it worked as well on my picture of an older house near my brother’s school…cool effect anyway! And that’s a cool pic of the car too = D
I didn’t use the lime green as my background color though, I used #f9d64c and I thought the gold/yellow worked really well as well. I had a higher noise % too. I guess it depends on the picture?
great! thanx for the tutorial!
great!!!!!!!!!!!!!..
