I'm in the process of creating a hundered dollar bill with my face instead of the Franklin one. My problem is that i want the picture of me to have the same type of texture that the Franklin face has. Is there a way to do this. And also, can anyone tell me how to change the colors of my face to match the colors of the bill. Thanks for any kind of help

Well, we're not all americans here, so it might help if you could post a picture of the bill..... But, you could you scan the note and overlay the texture. You could use the clone tool. Or, you can find a similar texture from a stock photo and overlay it, perhaps......

Well,.... first of all there really is no way to achieve the line work since they were originally ecthings and the lines conform to the shape of the volumes they depict (meaning, not straight across like some etching styles), However, using the halftone filter (under the Sketch filters) OR using the Conte' Crayon filter (also under the sketch filters or maybe a combination of both, you may be able to create an etched look that serves your purpose. Take the image of your face and desaturate it (turn it into a grayscale image) and then run those filters to try and get it close to an ecthed look. Merge that (or a duplicate layer) with the bill image (or a duplicate image of that) and destaurate the whole thing and create an adjustment layer or layer effect to bring the color back into it. Doing it this way will ensure color uniformity since you'll be adding color back into the whole thing at once rather than trying to adjust your face to match the bill (much harder to do). I've not tried this myself but this is how I'd start anyway. The hardest part is going to be achieving the etched line look in your face.

For the etching effect, you can look into a plugin by Flaming Pear called India Ink.

They have a demo you can download to see if it will work for you... If it does the job, it is only $15(US)

I do love India Ink. Andromeda also has an EtchTone filter
