Photoshop help - changing the colour of something

[m1spw]

I'm using PS CS to try and change the colour of some garage doors from dark blue to white. Whats the easiest way to do this? I've tried using the paintbrush on the exclusion mode, but I can't get a straight edge as I'm using a touchpad

Is there an easier way to do it?

There's several ways to do it.

You could take some time out and learn from Photoshop TV.....

You could......


Basically create a mask - use the pen tool to draw a path and then hit Ctrl - Enter (assuming PC!!) to create a selection and bring up new layer and adjust colour that way?

By doing it in a new layer you can play around with the layer and not change the underlying image!

Using a mask means you can easily paint more ore less onto your selection at any time too....

Post the piccy up here and I am sure a few of us will do it for you and then tell you how we did it.
