Ok well i have been working on these for about 3 hours now. In these pictures there is one person in each that is wearing a different color shirt fromt he rest. I have tried Color replacement tool in Cs2, and some other color change ways. i just cant match the color but still keep the textur of there shirts/sweater. Let me know if you can help. when my wife told her work i can take pictures she said i can match colors too with out asking me lol.

hmmmm, I know it doesn't help you now, but if the "different" on had been put in a different place of the "line up," it would have looked okay. :)
I have done this before, but in PaintShopPro, so I'm not sure it would be helpful to you. |

Here's a quick and dirty job, essentially all I did was a quick select of the area in question (ie. the shirt) and then used the hue/saturation tool.
Though there's probably a better way to select the area other than using the select tool (I think there's a tutorial somewhere here on DPC, if someone can find that and point you to it). So yeah, the hue/saturation tool is what you want to use eventually.

A VERY quick go at this, I duplicated layer, copied the colour of one of the other girls shirts, painted over the area of the mis-coloured shirt on the new layer with the paintbrush set to colour then erased the rest of the layer (could as easily used a mask), went back to original layer to burn in some of the lighter shirt behind the hair to get it looking a bit better, then burned in some of the creases etc.
Not perfect by any means but I have spent a whole 5 mins (that's all I have spare) on it so with some care and the original file to work with, you could get it much better.

I was just looking through my PS book, and found what you need:
Open the image twice as two separate layers, then use the magnetic lasso tool to select the wrong coloured shirt/jumper on one of the layers. Then copy (it says control-J) to copy that area to its own layer. With the layer you just created active, choose Image-Adjustments-Match Colour. The source pop up menu near the bottom of the dialog box determines what PS will attempt to match, so change that menu so that it corresponds with the name of your source file. Next, turn on the "Use Selection in Source to Calculate Colours" checkbox so PS ignores all the areas outside of the selection.
You can then fine tune the settings used, adjust the Luminance slider if its too bright or dark, or if the colours vary too much, try adjusting the colour intensity slider. Apparently you can also use the fade slider to lessen the shift. Hope that helps....haven't tried it myself yet, but might just do that later today. |

When I try, the "Use Selection in Source to Calculate Colours" checkbox is greyed out. What step am I missing, anyone?
Obviously I'm doing something terribly wrong, because it's awful!
eta; okay, got it working by a slightly different route, but I'm finding it's not giving the same detail in the knit.
