Hi all, I'm currently using this (http://www.bbaddons.com/vb/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=43) button set for my forum (http://theice.co.uk/forum/). Very soon be moving the site to a new location, and start using a new colour scheme (a green one).
Now i've decided that I like the style and design of my current buttons, and as a result i'd like to make them all green, but I have no idea how to.
Would anyone either be able to tell me how i can do it (I have Paint Shop Pro) or can someone do it for me please?
Thanx all :)

For each file, open it in PSP (I use v7), go to Color|Adjust|Hue/Saturation/Lightness , set saturation and lightness to 0, and adjust hue till your buttons are the desired hue. If you want this to affect only certain areas, select the areas to change first.
Amazing what reading the reference maunal will teach you

Hi, thanx for the help, I've used this methord to change colours b4, i wanted to see if there was any other ways, and maybe a way to do all the files at the same time rather than having to to each file sepratly.

Well, most of the options in the adjust color menu will allow you to change color, though for what you're doing the HSL adjust is probably the best. As for doing a bunch at a time, the HSL saves its settings between use, so if you got a copy of good old macro recorder from win 3.1 handy, you could try opening all the files by dragging them in and set up a keystroke only macro that goes to HSL (Shift-H), hits enter, followed by save (Ctrl-S), then closes the file (Ctrl-F4). Set it to repeat and and wait for all the images to close. Other than that, I don't know of a fast way to do this on a batch of images, furthermore, the last time I used macro recorder was on 95, not sure if it works on whatever you're using.
Hope that helps
