Halloj 8))

The picture here is the layout I'm working on for a site I'm making. I've gotten pretty far, and am about to do the final touches. As you can see the satyr(the horned guy hugging the "P") and the text is grey. I wan't it black.

I could do the satyr all over again, it still needs some finishing touches before I am done anyways, BUT: It took me lots of tries until I got it close to the way I want it to look.

What happens when I use the color replacement tool on it is this:

When I use black color, nothing happens.
When I use some colors, it becomes that color
And with other colors, it just blends!

What should I do? Is there another way to have the satyr intact and change the color for it? Is it even possible with the color replacement tool?

I've attatched the satyr as .psd to this post if anyone think they can do it? Hm.. Maybe I should have forumlated this as a challange :>

Ah.. Feel free to comment the layout also, as long as you have nice things to say [confused]

The simple way to accomplish your goal is just to duplicate the satyr/text layer. Everything will magically become opaque. Somewhere in your creation that layer became about 90% opaque but the lettering was still black. That's why you couldn't do anything with the color replacement. If it had been opaque grey rather than transparent black it would have worked.

Ah well.. I could not get it to work with the tool so I went ahead and did it the "manual" way :p

Hupps. The text looks blurry now when I've downsized the image so much I've got dropshadow on the text
