My name is Jayanand Govindaraj, and I live in Chennai (formerly Madras), 
India. I just joined a couple of days ago, because I suddenly acquired two 
Leica IIIf and two M3 (with lenses) as a part of a purchase of a collection. 
Quite a few names are familiar to me from the Rollei list, though.
If you are interested in toning via Photoshop, I suggest you have a look at 
the toning section of Paul Butzi's site at 
http://www.butzi.net/articles/toning.htm . Very nice, with curves that you 
can modify to your taste. The latest Photokit Colour also has a lot of split 
tones, written by Martin Evening (I think), which are a little exotic for my 
taste. However the info is at http://www.pixelgenius.com/color/index.html .

Cheers
Jayanand
