turning a photo into 5 colors only for silkscreening

[slade]

I need to silkscreen an image, but can only do one solid color at a time. I'll have a black t-shirt, so that's one color, then red, green, pink and silver to screen onto the shirt. I can only do a max of 4 colors on one background.

here's the image: farm2.static.flickr.com/1123/527604923_c6d336d14d_b.jpg

the link is missing the http : // because I'm a new member and can't post links yet :/

Can someone tell me how to break this down into 5 cells of color in Photoshop (CS4)? Then I can silkscreen it.

Here's your image, you can posted it directly.
Links aren't allowed for new members image posts are.

Simplest way would be save for web gif, then set it to 4 colors.

Are you using the entire image..... or just the rose, exit and bullet?

In PS. Image-Mode-Indexed Color. Set the number of colors you want (5) in the pop-up box. You can change the colors to anything you prefer.
