Go to a photo kiosk like at Wal-Mart and when you either scan the photo, negative or use the digital image on a disc you can print a copy in black and white or sepia using the kiosk.
I don't know what you paid for your camera or computer, but I think spending under $100 for Photoshop Elements would be a good investment.



That said, to convert image files to black and white, you will need to desaturated the image and then using the levels tool adjust the black threshold, white threshold and then move the mid-tone adjustment until your image looks its best ... the results however may be based upon how well your computers monitor is calibrated.
basically what you are looking to do can be called desaturation or conversion to grey (in photoshop there are always 15 ways to do anything.



If you want to do it with a free tool, consider xnview. They have a convert to grey option. Just remember, you want to keep the maximum number of greys when you do that, otherwise you will loose the image details. After the image is grey, you can play with hues and make it sepia, etc.
Easy enough...



Open in Window Photo Gallery.

Go to Fix

Adjust Color

Then move the saturation slider all the way to the left.

Adjust the tint slider until it looks right and save!



You should already have this on your computer... unless it's a Mac
use iPhoto. or even microsoft word
