To "fade" an image in Photoshop double click it in the Layers palette to turn it into a layer. Then turn the Transparency in the Layers palette to something between 10% and 50%.
If you want to fade it to a special color, create a new layer and fill it with your desired color. Finally drag it beneath the image layer in the Layers palette.

fade for baclground
I am a total amateur at PhotoShop and found an easy way to do this Open your original image. Open a new image the same size. Using the paint bucket tool, select the original image as the flood fill and set the opacity to a low setting. Experiment until yoou have the desired shade.

Most image editors will allow you to adjust the 'gamma' - just set the gamme to 1,5 or higher.HaraldHeim wrote:To "fade" an image in Photoshop double click it in the Layers palette to turn it into a layer. Then turn the Transparency in the Layers palette to something between 10% and 50%.

Several way...here are a few:
Adjust saturation - Image>>>Adjsut Hue Saturation
Bring Up Curves - Image>>>Adjust Curves
New Adjustment Layer - Layer>>>New Adjustment Layer - Choose Hue/Saturation or Curves
Duplicate the layer - delete the background - Leave white or fill with color - select the layer you created when you duplicated - Use the multiply blend mode to blend into the background
The thing with Photoshop is that there are countelss ways of acheiving something.
