You can use the hue/saturation layers to change the colours fast in photoshop although the results aren't always so perfect.

I always assume you used photoshop UKLive. I'd use the gradient tool, and then make minor refinements to the gradients if needed though the blending options.

Edit: Ah, you found the gradient tool, stick with it. :P

Thanks Shelley :D i've got an old version of photoshop somewhere in my collection but for some bizzare reason i've had paint.net on my pc for years and have normally just used that for doing all my odds and sods,

I keep meaning to buy the latest photoshop but i can't really see myself using it enough to justify the cost. I'm trying to learn CSS at the moment in my spare time soI guess that would come in handy for the graphic side, but at the moment i can't really fault Paint.net as its a great little package and its Free. Now that i've found about how the gradiants on there its a doddle ;)

Its gonna take me a few good years before i can even match your high standards, but at least i'm making a start :p
