changing the color of thousand's of images

is there a way to do this quickly?

[jdubo79]

I have about 3000 jpg images all strictly black and white, there are no gradients or shades of black on any of the images. I need to change the color of every single one of these images.

Is there a way that can do all of this as one large batch operation?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

do you have photoshop?

you can record an action of yourself coloring one image, and then apply that as a batch process to folder containing all the images.

Window > Actions Pallette

create new action and give it a name, click record, and carry out whatever steps you want on the image. stop recording.

File > Automate > Batch

select source (original) folder, destination folder, and youre recently created action. check the saving options to make sure there ok. Maybe run a test on one or two images before doing thousands in one go.

have a coffee, put your feet up and watch photoshop do the work for you.
