Abstract
We describe our procedure to model Tidal Dwarf Galaxies in the context of our evolutionary synthesis code. Our analysis shows strong contributions of gaseous emission lines to optical colors and of continuum emission to NIR colors during the burst phase. This underlines the importance of including both types of emission when modeling any type of star-bursting galaxies.
