Did you try b/w?

i dont like how it looks, i like the desat look
why do you ask?, jsut because you think it might look coo, or do you have other reasoning?

how's this? i desaturated the yelows and some of the reds, changed levels to give it more contrast, and added noise.
edit: oh yeah, i also cropped that distractng white corner out... great image for this stuff, though. I'd PM joeylawrence

I don't know how to post pictures in these forums (I know, I'm a dork) but I created a duplicate layer of this pic in photoshop and changed the blending mode to Hard Mix, then lowered the opacity of the top layer to 25% - thought it looked kind of cool. If someone can tell me how to upload the pic, I'll post it.

After you convert to B&W, you can add a duotone effect, blue,orange,red...
