I'm not sure if I approve of myself for doing this but I worked out how to emulate a cross processed effect using Photoshop Elements - which all the websites will tell you is not possible without curves adjustment layers.
To top off the luck I've been having. Didn't realize I stuck in a roll of Provia 100F instead of Reala 100. Didn't even notice when I took it out and dropped it off for processing. So this is my first cross processed roll of film. Unintentionally, and sadly, unwanted. Luckily there are a few shots I do like (like this one). I took three rolls of film in total though so it wasn't all a wash of green.
I decided to see what this picture would look like cross processed. If you would like to see the original please take a look in my unusual oddities folder.

Used the cross processing to make it look like there is something awesome awaiting beyond the trees but at the same time kind of lost and i think i achieved that, though didn't think i would like my first attempt so much. Really wanted to use this technique after i got this image as i think the light lends itself to this idea, i achieved this by adjusting the curves in photoshop.
This photo was mostly achieved thanks to the editing in photoshop, the initial image was a walkway leading out to an opening and i thought you get a good sense of direction from it and the tree cover was giving off a nice light so i lined myself up with the path and took the wide shot image using my colour enhance mode so that the colour would be stronger, although it sacrificed the sharpness of the image. Though I think that not having it as sharp has added to the effect the image gives off, but that might be because the light exposer might be so high.
I said in my critique that it was my weakest, I'm going to change my statement to my lower case e is probably my least favourite as it is the one I done least to, as I only cropped it other than using the macro lense.
Another photo taken at the Morningstar Mill last week. That's my friend Bob taking a picture of the mill. I wanted to try something different with this one. I applied a technique call "cross-processing" or Xpro. Basically it simulates digitally the effect of deliberately processing colour film in a chemical solution intended for a different type of film, i.e. crossing processing C-22 and E-4 film and chemicals. Wikipedia says the process is seen most often in fashion advertising and band photography. I tried it using an action I got from here.

After loading this film into my development cannister, just before I was about to pour the B&W Ilfosol3 developer in, I noiticed the empty film cartridge lying in the waste basket - it *finally* registered in my thick brain that this was a roll of Ektar 100.- a COLOUR film. Oops. I spent a little while reading various sources to determine what my options were. It seems one can develop colour film quite nicely with B&W developer. The negatives might be awkward to scan depending on your scanner but otherwise they are just fine.
This image is proof of the technique. I've done this several times over the years since and always with good results.
I took this picture cause its more landscapy....and already had quite vivid colours....did the same cross processing on it as the last picture....here's result, kinda cool
Just some basic editing practice :p
BTW For eyeshadow, I used tanning, lip stick tool, & airbrush if you wanna know.

This is the Grand Théâtre de Provence, in Aix-en-Provence. This photo was my first effort at cross-processing in Photoshop Elements.

Getting the cross-processed look in Elements is not as easy as Photoshop, as the Curves function has been crippled. Obviously you can still do it, but its pretty manual and time consuming.
Basically, it involves starting with a suitably contrasty photo, raising the red and green channels in the highlights and dropping them in the shadows, then dropping the blue channel in the highlights and raising it in the shadows. I then added a bit of a vignette and a warming filter at a relatively low density (10%).
I quite like the look for my first effort, but I fear this will lead me to replace Elements with something slicker at some point.
My first try at developing, cross-processing and scanning negs.

The light is a bit harsh coming through the window, but I tried to minimize shadows on her face by using a silver reflector.
Trying to learn to cross-process, it isn't the best, but I'm trying....
The cross-processing on this one almost makes it look like it was taken at night instead of the middle of the day. This was a Greek Orthodox church in Barcelona.
Another shot of our fun photo session. Thinking of doing super natural makeup next time for contrast.
