Hi, all!
I'm in a course called "Teach me to Color", and am learning how to repair/colour photos.It is connected with another site where we repair/ colour photos free of charge - I like to think of it as preserving memories.

My trouble is trying add colour to plaids.
The students who use Photoshop have a "Blend-if" that works quite well, and I was wondering if anyone knew of a plug in or technique I could use with Gimp.
:tyspin

Thanks in advance.

I had never heard of this plugin before so forgive me if my answer is useless but I'm just about to watch a video comparing blend-if to Gimp's colour to alpha. It might be useful.

Thanks for the link to that video Erisian. I've never used Color to Alpha before, but I like the effect it can create.
