I need to change some lines that are in a layer from a black/gray to brown. So I tried to change it by right clicking (PS 7.0) and blending options then tried a bunch of stuff and nothing seems to work: color overlay, blend mode, blend if... but I can't get the color!!!
I would greatly appreciate it if someone tell me how to do this? The color I need is somewhere between #734002 and #B16203.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Turn off visibilty on the other Layers. Go to Channels and Ctrl-click on the composite (RGB or CMYK) channel to get a good selection of the line. Ctrl-Shift-I to inverse the selection. Choose your color and
back on your Layer (or in a new Layer) Alt-Delete to fill with the color you want.

Hey Ed,
Sorry for being so tardy replying.
That worked absolutely perfectly.
Thanks again for your help.
