Colourize Black & White Photos
Ever found a black and white photo and thought, "That would look great in colour"? Probably not, but just in case you do there is a clever program called Recolored to do it for you. Check out the gallery for some nice examples.
I've been having a play and it's surprisingly difficult to produce realistic results when you don't know what the original colours where.
I seen this method of colourisation many months ago, done with a Matlab algorithm. I actually have access to Matlab at work but couldn't get the code to work — probably because I have no idea how to use Matlab.

Rules: Paragraphs and linebreaks are automatically created (two or more linebreaks create a paragraph). Linebreaks between code tags remain linebreaks. Block tags cannot be enclosed by inline tags. Red attributes are required and green is optional.
Use "<" and ">" for "<" and ">". Enclosing PHP code in <code> tags will highlight the code (i.e. <code><?php echo 'hello world'; ?></code>).
List of valid tags:
<blockquote title="" cite=""></blockquote><cite cite="" title=""></cite><a href="" title=""></a><strong title=""></strong><em title=""></em><code title=""></code><abbr title=""></abbr><acronym title=""></acronym><ol title=""></ol><ul title=""></ul><li title=""></li>
