“all you need to do is place the color layer above the monochrome layer”
absolutely so. but how do I create a colour layer. The only way I’ve seen is to create a blank layer and colour it in BY HAND – which is nonsense because I have the colour information in another image.
I just want to use the colour information from one image and apply it to another.
I’ve explained the circumstances of the job – I am really putting across my situation badly; no one seems to understand me.
