Hi all. I'm trying to change the coloring on some block letters I found on the 'net. The letters are silver and have kind of a shiny effect. I'd like to have these letters in red, blue, green, and yellow for some backgrounds I'm working on for my arcade machine. Does anyone know how i can change the colors on these letters and still retain the effect properties that each one has? I found an example of a red letter to illustrate what I'm trying to do. Someone has obviously done some recoloring of these type of letters at some point. However, I can't find red, blue, green, or yellow versions of the "A", "E", "M", and "G" letters that I need for my background. I have downloaded the Paint.net program which I thought would help me change the colors on these things. But so far I have had no luck figuring out a simple way to do this using that program. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know how to do it in Paint.net but in Photoshop you can do a color adjustment for the highlights/shadows/midtones to bring the colors where you would like.
Try seeing if Paint.net has the capability for a color adjustment layer.

I'll look for that. Thx for the info.

Probably the easiest thing is to use Hue / Saturation (ctrl+shift+U) to tweak all the colors at once.
