Answer 1

use adobe photo shop

open a new layer and and colour the backgroup purple

unlock the layer and copy the backgroung

paste it on the picture you wanna add an effect to

select the purple layer and reduce it's opacity

you have the picture with the effect you want

you can do this with any other colour
