In Photoshop:

1. Open the left and right images.

2. Open the "Channels" window. Activate the right image, and in the "Channels" window, click on "Blue".

3. Using the rectangular marquee tool, right click on the right image, and click on "Select All". Go to "Edit" and "Copy" (or Ctrl + C).

4. Activate the left image, and in the "Channels" window, click on "Blue". Go to "Edit" and "Paste" (or Ctrl + V)

5. In the left image "Channels" window, click on the box to the left of the "RGB" channel. (Where the eye icon will appear.. do not click on the channel itself or it will lock the layers!)

6. Put on your anaglyph glasses, and using the move tool, drag the pasted, right image around in the left image, until the alignment is where you want it.

7. When you are done, click on the "RGB" channel in the "Channels" window of the left image, and save the image.

Some anaglyphs look terrible when compressed to JPG, with excessive ghosting. If so, consider saving it to uncompressed BMP, lossless, etc... even GIF's aren't bad for some images.
Red-Blue anaglyphs, with the red lens for the left eye, look much better if the left image is first converted to grayscale, then back to RGB, _before_ conversion to anaglyph. You can do this quickly in Photoshop, under "Image", then "Mode" and "Grayscale". Some people have said that it also helps to do this to the _right_, blue image with ColorCode (or anaglyphs with the left image as amber, orange, yellow, etc... and the right image as blue) anaglyphs, but I haven't done much experimentation with this and am not totally convinced, yet :-) I do know that it pretty much totally stops all retinal rivalry in Red-Blue anaglyphs, just like magic :-)

HTH.

There's a free plug in for MAX that will create red/blue anaglyphs automatically... :)

I use Anaglyph Maker from http://www.stereoeye.jp/software/index_e.html
its free and simple to use and You can make gray-anaglyph, color-anaglyph, interleave image for LC-shutter glasses.

Try looking at: http://w1.312.telia.com/~u31218833/html/docs/012_Download_Edit.html for more software.

I use VirtualDub and Avisynth when I create animations. See http://web.onetel.net.uk/~gedburnell/tgstereo2.htm

Oops , Anaglyph Maker won't make colorcode anaglyphs, sorry. But VirtualDub and Avisynth will.
