I know that this is probably a really basic question... but I can't seem to figure it out :). How do you bring back only one color in a black and white... !like this one usingphotoshop elements??? Thanks so much for your help

When using the thumb tags you only need the image id.

well if you have the full color image you can do select the part you want to keep color (I think move it to new layer) and do color desaturation on the rest or if it is b/w you can colorize by selecting it and doing a colorize under the saturation area.
There are a lot more steps but since I'm not in front of my computer with that stuff on it I can't tell you step by step, just thought I'd get you started in the direction.

It works the other way actually;
open your full color image in elements, then make a new layer from background and apply hue/saturation to the new layer (or make a hue/saturationa djustment layer if you're comfortable with that).
Now drag all the color sliders to the left; totally desaturated. Pick one and slide it back to the right: that's the only color you'll see in the image. Play around with it.
For this to work well, you need the part youw ant emphasized to be a different color than the rest of the shot, liek that qriting on the wall, but interesting effects can be had with less than complete desaturation overall and one color more emphasized than the resta s well.
