i am not at my original pc, since the videocard broke down somehow, but try experimenting with this, to get hard edged, two or four" color photo's like the popart you're talking about:

- image > adjust > brightness/contrast
- posterize
- indexed color (to change the colors afterwards in what you want/need)

chances are real though you dont get exacly what you want, but somewhere next week i'll try to finetune this --> if my pc starts working again :P

Pop art tutorial search

There you go :P Some nice tutorials in there.
If you like popart, I'd recomend Lichtenstein too, not just Warhol. Enjoy :D
