I like to use this tutorial most of the time, though this one gets a fair amount of use. I usually tweak the results to get a look that I like.

Better yet, download the Photoshop action that was posted by R&R Finn in the Technique Discussion.

Vidar, I just followed your method using the Gimp instead of Photoshop, and it works great. My first attempt is here.
thanks for the this group

Sometimes I use scripts and sometimes various mixing layers + playing with curves, but the most simple of all is stil l alien skin exposure a really simple to use plug for Ps (works on cs too) I highly recommend it if you don't know this one.

I have also worked with some of the tutorials, plug-ins, actions and other stuff posted here. Now I have learnt to experiment with my own approach, using adjustment layers and masks , vary and develop these processes, altering them for my needs. I have to say thanks for setting up this group - it's a great idea!
Agree with SkullKid, Exposure is a great tool. I only discovered it two days ago, and was impressed. I can see that it will come in very handy indeed - great range of user-editable [and saveable] film and cross-processing effects, all done in a layer above your original, leaving you more options to experiment with.

Thanks Vidar and all who posted here. Doing my best to spread the word about this cool and interesting process and fascinating pool. This one done with the Urban Acid plug in.

Alien Skin Exposure is a great plug-in for Photoshop (can be used with Paint Shop Pro too).
www.alienskin.com/exposure/
they have a demo version that you can download and try out.

I really like this effect ...

... anyone have any clues on how to do it? Seems to be a hybrid of cross processing.

I use the urban acid action and tweak the curves. I've also bucked up and downloaded the following filter--and used it to great effect. I'd recommend:

Hi guys!
I'm glad I found this group! I've been doing a lot of research here on Flickr, in this group and others and of course, in other sites too. I was wondering if we can get any close to these colours:
www.flickr.com/photos/barbuil/sets/72157594348101631/detail/ or these: www.flickr.com/photos/maya_newman/sets/1552390/detail/ using Photoshop???
Jinky and Maya's photos are just amazing!!! I know Maya shoots film and uses cross processing method, no Photoshop at all! And Jinky uses Photoshop actions that she created and sells here www.ittybittyactions.com/real.htm
I've tried a lot of stuff, including all cross processing actions and tutorials I've seen in this group and else where but I still can't get such vibrant colours.
This was the best I could achieve but still not happy about it!

Any help, appreciated! Greetings from Brazil! ;-)

I probably use most of the methods above, esp. ShanXP, AlienSkinExposure, plus some homemades, and now, Lightroom presets too, so I don't always have to go to Photoshop.

Alternatively, I once read an article about doing another simple way of doing X-processing. I can't rem where to get the link but I still rem it well.
First you create another layer after you import ur photo to PS CS. Next on the new layer, you select Gradient (You play ard with any type of gradient you like). Then again on the new layer where the gradient was in, you can use opacity or dissolve to lighten up in order to let the photo to be seen.
Hope this give in another tips. ;)

There are action scripts that make this really convenient, but most of the time, I will just tweak the curves of the individual color channels to get the color cast that I like. At the end of it, I will add a new layer, paint bucket it with yellow-green, and set the opacity to 5-10%.
Cheers.

I found out about digital cross processing from a magazine article. Basically, you open curves and under RGB create an "S" curve, then do the same after you select the red channel from the drop down menu. Then select the blue channel and create a reverse "S" curve. You just have to vary it and play around with how severe a curve to create. Sometimes I don't adjust the red channel at all and sometimes I adjust the green channel instead of the blue.
This is a cool thread...I didn't know there were other methods for creating this effect. I figured there were, but I had no clue where to start looking for them.

By the way, you can add some vignetting to make it more attractive.

I'm not sure if anyone already said this, but on Picnik, there is a cross processing setting. Super fast, and easy (especially for people like me with no photoshop.)

agree with lindseyy, i've been doing my cross processing for the past few weeks via Picnik, and this was after such a long time trying to study how its done in Photoshop!
takes me just less than a few clicks to get one great image :)

I don't use any plug-ins or actions. I just add a blue/olive gradient, set the blend mode to color at 50%, adjust the brightness/contrast, add a vignette (all my conventionally cross-processed stuff usually has darkened corners), and maybe add a magenta layer, blend mode normal at about 10-15%.
It seems like a lot of steps, but it's pretty easy.

No add-ons, in PS the PRESET menu of curves adjustment layer contains the CROSSPROCESS option. Just a starting approach, than you can tweak R,G and B curves to pleasure...

Does anyone here use blender 3D? I would like to know if cross-processing could be done with the compositor. It has many of the same tools as PhotoShop so I figure I can simply copy those. But I would like to know if there is an easier way to do it using the compositor. Anyone have any idea?
