these images are edited in programs like photoshop. i can provide you with a short and simple tutorial for doing it.

-get the gimp image editor from

**Warning** the program has a strange interface

-open the program and open the image

-if the image is color

--create a new layer in the layers dialog

--set layer mode to color

--fill the entire layer with black or white

--erase parts of the layer to make the original color background visible through the new layer

-if the image is gray scale

--create a new layer in the layers dialog

--set the layer mode to color or overlay

--paint the parts you want colored

when done save your image as .jpg or .png, best image quality

Answer 4

You don't take it from a B&W original, most likely... Unless you want to have a pain in the *** of a job to colorize it. Otherwise, they use something like Photoshop and select everything except the item(s) they want in color... Then jus' reduce the saturation to nothing. You can also jus' do that to individual colors, but either way, you start with a color photo.
