In photoshop how do you turn a picture to Sepia?

You can use an "Action" or do it yourself.

You learn something new every day, I usually convert to greyscale and back to RGB and then play with colour balance until I find the look I'm after. But I think I'll have to play with the duotone mode tonight.

DESATURATE, then in Hue/Saturation, adjust the RED slider.

Photoshop has an excellent library of preset Duotone setups. When you switch to Duotone Mode, click the "Load" button and search around inside your Photoshop application folder for the folder of presets.

Some hints:
-Duotones must start as a Grayscale image
-When you have the Duotone looking the way you want, you must change back to RGB Mode before you can save as a JPEG or TIFF.
-The lighter color should predominate in the highlights, and fade to a steady maximum of about 70%.
-The darker color shouldn't start to show up until the 10-20% range.
