Greetings to all,
Can someone point me to how to turn an image to sepia? (I am using gimp 2.6 or 2.7 in windows).

Thanks in advance

You're using a pretty old version of GIMP, Ed. That said the tutorial below will work.

I have used this tutorial and it is good. You can of course also use it as a basis to start from.

The "Sepia"color used in the tutorial is HTML Notation a28a65 .

Click on the Black Foreground Swatch.
To open the Change Foreground Color Dialog.

Enter the HTML Notation of a28a65,
into the provided space,
within the Color Selection Dialog.

You should seriously consider switching to newer version of Gimp.
FX Foundry script package (last built is for 2.6, works also in 2.8) includes a script with multiple sepia and other duotone presets.
It's the "egger-duotone-simulation.scm"

I see there's also
"Klawiter-sepia-toning.scm" &
"cprogrammer-midnight-sepia.scm"

I know, the thing is that the machine at the office is not available right now (not the w10 one) so I have had to use the older one with gimp 2.6.
I am going to take a look at the scipt, thank you for the information.
