Okay 
I only have freebies like paint.net, I have a verson of photoshop but not on this laptop. I also dont have a clue!
Iv just gave it a shot on paint.net, It doesnt look that great (probably the photo choice and the fact its a free program,) BUT it worked.
I always wondered how people managed to do that...Thank you!!

Oh good! Yeah most programs should have the ability to do it, I don't think it's a particular professional technique but glad it worked for you. Happy to have helped!

Sure thing; there's a few ways, some more fiddley than others, but the quick and lazy way is using the post processing on some photo programs (trying to avoid saying any names just incase..), specifically changing the saturation for specific colour levels.. so I just dropped the saturation for the blue, green and yellow levels to 0. Quite simple really once you know; it's not always a perfect way to do it as your focal object probably has some levels of the colour your dropping anyway, but on occasion (like this) it doesn't affect it at all..
Hope that's useful
