First, you have to copy and paste your original onto a new layer, then put a new layer between the original and the copied picture. now use the gradient tool, in the same button as the paintbucket. Once you have selected the gradient, you can select colors by clicking the gradient image in the top left corner. Then, on the black layer, click and drag the gradient until u get the desired effect. If this is complicated or difficult to understand ill make a little tutorial. Let me know.
