I am trying to make up some Candy Bar slides for a 1930s cinema, I want an old look about them, they will be run off a DVD player, so I am making the slides and using video software to make them onto a Super VCD. If anyone can help with pictures that I could use, of choc tops, popcorn ect I would really like to get them! Any idea on how to make the slides look very professional? They will also have a voice over-something like "The Candy Bar is now Open, Hot Popcorn, Icey Cold Drinks"

If you want to give the slides a faded, old-time look, put them into Photoshop and use the Aged Photo.exe program. It really does a nice job of desaturating the color and turning everything a bit yellow, but still looking very nice.

Martin,
Is that Aged Photo.exe an add-on to Photoshop, or a stand alone product? Also is it for the windows platform or mac?
thanks

I use Photoshop v7.0 for Mac OSX, but I believe that the Windows version of 7.0 is exactly the same (especially since it's called Aged Photo.EXE. When I right click on a file to open it and the OS gives me a choice of programs to open it with, both Photoshop and AgedPhoto.exe appear.

I use PhotoShop 6 and 7 on Windows and have never seen this Aged Photo filter or program.
