Step 1. Open the Image in Photoshop

Start by launching Adobe Photoshop on your device. Open your desired image by clicking on the “File” option in the upper left corner. Select “Open” and browse to your image’s location. Double-click the image file to open it.

Step 2. Select the Mode Option

Under the “Image” menu, you’ll find the “Mode” option. This option allows you to choose the color mode of your image.

Using the menu bar, click on “Image” and then “Mode”. This will open a list of color modes.

Step 2.2 Use the Shortcut Key

Alternatively, you can use the shortcut key “Alt + Shift + Ctrl + K”. This will also bring up the “Mode” options.

Step 3. Choose RGB Color

From the list of color modes, select “RGB Color”. This stands for Red Green Blue, the primary colors in the color spectrum.

The Adobe Photoshop interface with the color picker open.

Step 4. Confirm the Change

After selecting “RGB Color”, a dialog box may appear asking you to confirm the change. Click “OK” to proceed.

Step 5. Save the Converted Image
