- Make in photoshop 7.0
- Might be transferable for any versions
- Result will be vary, depend on the basic image.
- Best result for HQ images
- Level : maybe for intermediate up since it's quite tricky with the selective color and curves.

    Red  : - Input : 71   - Output : 90
    Green  : I =   - Input : 93       - Output : 103

14. Copy your basic image, bring it to the top and set in Luminosity with opacilty 50%

15. You're done :)

Note : If you think the result is too brown (gold-ish), you can try to desaturate the last image (in step 14), if it's still too brown, just change the opacity on step 6 (the soft orange color fill).

Another result with this coloring :
