about How to Use Photoshop to Make Your Photos Look Great
In Photoshop, how do you make color show when it's black and white?
the picture starts off when it is colored but you make it black and white and make your eyes blue only or something like that
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I found a great tutorial that will show you how to produce a black and white image that contains a hint or a splash of color: http://digital-photography-school.com/mono-with-a-dash-of-colour-photoshop-cs2-tutorial
I'll paste the steps here, but for pictures check out the site.
1) Open the file and select IMAGE>ADJUSTMENTS>DESATURATE to remove all colour from the image. Please note that the file is still RGB. We must not turn the colour mode to Mono or the next bit won’t work.
2) Select the History Brush from the tool palette (2a). Then make your brush size around 10 - 11 px using the palette located just under the file menu bar (2b). Hardness should be 100%.
3) Using the History Brush we can now “paint” back in time to when our image was in it’s full colour glory. Remember and lift off now and then so you can undo any mistakes without having to start again.
4) Continue the process until the area is complete. Take extra special care by zooming in when necessary. I found the area near the ladies hand needed this treatment.
For an alternate way, you can create layers. Check out the tutorial here: http://www.showandtell-graphics.com/color-range.php
