You mean, like, a color overlay to "tint" the image?

You can do limited tinting with InfranView (http://www.irfanview.com/), which is relatively small and FREE. Otherwise you want to check out the Paint Shop Pro (http://www.jasc.com) Demo ($99 if you buy it).

You could use the GIMP (free) and just put a full layer of color on top and mess with the transparency.

with both adobe and gimp you do what neebick said.  Create a layer on top of the layer you want to color.  Choose a color.  Set transparency of that layer.  But this will basically combine the colors under the layer, not really turn it a certain color.

In photoshop (probably in gimp to) the the better way is to apply a style or something like that.  There's a way to tiny it.  I'd have to look it up again.  Ahhh, it;s blending options/color overlay.
