Any duotone experts out there? What would be your main tips to create duotones?

Other than using a light and a dark color and mapping them to light and shadows. I'm interested especially in print outputs and not just on screen results.

I either use the duotone mode and curves, or use the channels to create a DCS if I need to make something from scratch. Are there other approaches?

Are you planning to do a photo based design/image output or a duo tone vectored image?

If a photo based duo tone mapping, this sites would get your juices up.

If trying out vectors, what I usually do is play around with outlines using black and tones with white/gray.
