You have to use the selection tools to select the items you wish to remain in colour and then click on select > inverse selection and then use whatever method you are going to use to convert to B&W

make an adjustment layer
move center slider left to desaturate
paint on the layer mask of the adjustment layer in black on the areas you want back to color
make sure to try varying the opacity of the black brush to get a more subtle look

myJanee has some very good tutorials for beginners. I don’t know which one covers adjustment layers for this purpose, but go to: http://www.myjanee.com/contact.htm and email her. She’ll point you in the right direction.

Janey, Let me remind you how you did it March of this year …

"I have this pic that i want the person in black and white . and i need the date taken off and the foot onleft upper corner out too . Plus i want the towel where her head is laying on in its colors and help with taking out the white part ( shorts] out and blend in the color green of the towel. i will send the original pic from rapidshare and if u can send back to me . I’ll be forever greatful.. :};}" Then you wrote "I need to take classes on photoshop.."

I would suspect that from March of this year till now would be enough time to at least learn the basics.. ergo, as Katwoman said and put it so eloquently… "this is a group to share knowledge of how to use PS YOURSELF"

Does that refresh your memory?.. Use me once shame on me… use me twice… I don’t think so!!!!

Hope this helps motivate you,
Granny

Step 1: Use the Lasso tool to select the part of the image that should be in color.

Step 2: Click on the Select menu and choose the Inverse command.

Step 3: Click on the Image menu, point your mouse to Adjustments, and choose Hue and Saturation.

Step 4: Slide the Saturation slider all the way to the left.

yeah I thought that looked "familiar"
plus she came back saying"I still need help" when I bothered to re-type "how to" just above that
not to mention this and other ways to do that are on just about any tutorial site, maybe even the HELP files….
LAZY and forgetful will not take you far in this world…………add non-resourceful…………….
