Re: sun faded picture effect.
Step 2 Select Image>Adjustments>Shadow/Highlights. Have the Shadows equal 100% and the Highlight equal 0% and you should get this.

Re: sun faded picture effect.
Step 4. Select Edit>Fade Find edges. I Put the opacity to 24% but you can play around with it to get you desired effect and here is the final image. Enjoy!!

Re: sun faded picture effect.
You may even be able to use this for something that you want to give an aged package look.

Re: sun faded picture effect.
Nice job.
All that's missing is the coffee stain.
Thanks for the contribution.

Re: sun faded picture effect.
Yeah! coffee stain or some cracks/rips to make the picture (as in the thing not the image) look old. Sorta like a 3d effect.
