If you have PS CS3, you can easily create a Sepia effect in the Black-and-White converter dialog.

Sure. Open the Black & White... dialog, click on Tint at the bottom, and play with the Hue and Saturation sliders. For sepia, start with 42 and 20 respectively.

Another easy way is to clilck in the "Creat new fill or adjustment layer" on the layer pallet and choose Hue/Saturation and then when the window pops up, click on "colorize" and adjust your Hue and Saturation sliders to the desired Sepia tones.

Just for reference, this is not a sepia tone photo. It is what might be described as "colorized".

Sepia tone
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
This article is about the digital effect. For the chemical process, see Photographic print toning.
Sepia tone is a type of digital photo in which the picture appears similar to a traditional black-and-white print toned with sepia. It appears in shades of brown, as opposed to grayscale
