doug Nelson 		  Change the Image Mode of a B&W to RGB Color. Go to image-Adjust-Hue/Saturation. Check the colorize box, move the Hue slider to about 40, the saturation to 25, and the Lightness in the middle, or to your liking. You could use this adjustment to completely desaturate your color image, then set as above. As is everything else in PS, there are 25 plus ways to do anything.

Jarrod 		  Change the Image Mode to Grayscale to remove any possible conflicting colors. Then, change the Image Mode to RGB Color. Next, create a new layer (Layer-->New-->New Layer). Use the color picker to pick a dark orange (I use R: 238, G: 130, B: 0) and fill the layer with that color. Finally, change the opacity of the layer until the desired effect is achieved.

The way I do this is to change the Image Mode to Grayscale, then Image Mode Duotone, mix the image colours to my liking, then change the Image Mode back to RGB (in order to save the image as a JPG) - all done... Typically I save the image with a new name in order to revert back to the first image to play with if I'm seeking a series of different effects...
