Is it possible to take a pic of a red car, and make it black? Realistically looking as well...without painstaking work. I got someone who wants to see their car in another color, is there any quick way to make it look decent?

Just desaturate the pic and then lower the brightness. :)

That should give you some kind of indication of what it would look like black.

magic wand selection -> carefully select the outline of the car -> Image -> Adjustments -> Replace color.

freely fool around with fuzziness (range of selection), hue, replacable color, etc..

Cool - thanks guys! The version of PSP being used is 6, so I'm not sure if the Replace Color feature is included, it doesn't appear to be under Image/Adjust. There is a Color/Adjust, but no Replace Color under that...
