GIMP :: Supernova Effect Lighting Up Transparent Areas

May 11, 2012

I am in the process of adding lighting effects to one of my images. I'm trying to get a lightning effect, and decided to use Supernova off of the image's frame. This worked for full-frame layers, but on smaller layers, not so well.

What's happening is that I'm trying to get single objects in layers to have a lighting effect, but it's lighting up the transparent space around them, making a distinctly brighter area... well, it's better if I show you:

Base:

Adding the Effect:

The Unsatisfactory Result:

How to merge two or more specific layers together, that'd be fantastic.

Photoshop :: Lighting Effects Renders Black Or Very Dark

Jul 9, 2013

I have been faced with an almost identical problem listed here URL....The only thing that changes it from complete blackness is the "Ambience" value. I've done all software and hardware updates, reinstalled the graphics card driver, and restarted a multitude of times. I am using:
 
Dell Optiplex 390
Intel(R) HD Graphics 2000
Windows 7 64 bit
Photoshop CC
No Color Management
No plug-ins, or anything other than default PS settings
 
I used Lighting Effects on Photoshop CS3 and CS6 for almost two years on this machine with no problem. This was the first time I had tried to use it since I upgraded to CC. I uninstalled all other versions of PS when I upgraded, so I have not tried to replicate the problem in older versions.

GIMP :: Creating Highlighter Pen Effect?

Sep 17, 2012

Stage 1: I wish to mark up an existing image with transparent, highlighter-like markings. I've come close with paths, stroking with brush, and applying a gradient map (with alpha adjustment), but I would like to get the density of the coloring to vary and I haven't been able to find a combination of brush and gradient adjustment that will accomplish this in a visible way. Specifically, I would like the center of the broad line more transparent and the edges less so.

Am I using the best approach?

Stage 2: Carrying Stage 1 a bit further, I would like the edges of the broad line to be discontinuously more intense than the center, so that they appear as edges. This seems like a gradient map function on the line left by the brush (standard fuzzy, (19)(21x21)) but again, I haven't found a gradient that will do it. I've tried splitting the map, etc, but I may just lack the experience. Or this might be the wrong approach altogether.

Xara :: How To Do Shading Effect On Front Of The Box

Jun 21, 2011

I ran across a thread a while back on doing a 3D box, that I believe Rik did. Shown is the example box. How to do the "shading" effect on the front of the box? Is just a overlapping of different shapes with different transparencies? I played around with the transparency tool, but didn't get the same effect.

I am new to this and get over whelmed by all of the cool effects you guys do. Is there a "central" location that might show samples of looks, and a how to? Also the 3D box thread link, can't seem to find again.

GIMP :: Creating Certain Type Of Motion Blur Effect

Sep 29, 2011

I've had trouble creating a certain type of motion blur effect. Typically, motion blur radiates outward from one single point. However, What I would like is for a whole section of an image to be clear (for instance, a character's torso) and then have the image GRADUALLY get blurrier from there.

I cannot figure a way to do this (apart from a very long process of creating many duplicate layers and doing an independent motion blur for each one).

Attached is an example of what my attempts look like right now: an obvious line around the region that I'm trying to showcase, rather than a smooth, gradual transition into the motion blur.

Illustrator :: Creating Stipple Or Crosshatch Shading For Patent Drawing?

Dec 19, 2013

I need to shade a curved surface on a simple patent drawing and am restricted to using either a stipple or a simple straight line surface shading by US Patent Office guidelines. I'd like to use stipple but the only stipple I can find is a symbol for the spray tool which, when used, creates a spray pattern way beyond the drawing boundary which is not eraseable.

Photoshop :: Lighting Effect

Oct 8, 2008

I am currently attempting to apply an image, and then filter -> lighting effects -> any light effect. When I apply the affect, at the bottom of my applied image, it appears as though there is a spot that was NOT hit with the "apply light effect." (So, basically, that spot looks normal while everything else is shadowed above it.)

I am running Photoshop CS2, the image is in RGB,

I've experimented by taking a layer and filter -> lighting effect to see if it had the same outcome, but it did not. It appears this is only a problem when applying the image.

Photoshop :: Lighting Effect ...

Jun 25, 2006

I'm creating an effect to some text, but for some reason the lighting effects filter in the filter menu is greyed out.

I have rasterized my text, so it's not that. I have also checked that I have the lighting style files in the folder where photoshop is installed, I have even dowloaded and added some new. It didn't help.

Photoshop :: Lighting Effect Used In Image

Dec 17, 2012

It is clear air brushing and skin toning was used to create the somewhat surreal skin surface.  But I cannot figure out if the lighting is from the Render / Lighting Effect tool, or air brushed to emulate lighting, or something else? 

When I use the PS lighting effect tool, everything turns dark in the photo outside the lit target area.  Notice the shadowing on the arm and breast.  It appears the light source is coming from two opposite directions.  Like if this is a multi-layer process, etc.  Not asking for a hand-holding tutorial.

Photoshop :: Cannot Use Lighting Effect In CS6 Extended

When I use the lighting effect filter in CS6 extended, it only creates a new layer without any change in the menu and other things. I try to edit the GPU setting under the edit menu but the column is in grey colour and cannot be edited.  I have changed my display card to AMD Radeon HD 7770 with an updated driver but it still not works.

Photoshop :: Lighting Effect Filter In CS6 With A 8bit RGB File

Aug 24, 2012

I've read all over that the filter only works with an 8bit/RGB file, which my file is, so I don't understand what the problem is.  I am attempting to light a smart object (3d bevel and extruded text) that I created in illustrator, and thought that I might just need to rasterize the smart object before the filter would work, but even after I render it and or flatten the image, merge visible, I still don't have the option to use lighting effects!

Photoshop :: Color To Dark When Loading Or Creating Images

Jun 6, 2005

I create or load an image it is always darker than it is actually supposed to be. When I go to save a created image, it will always be lighter. What I want to know is how to make the image on the screen the same color as when I save it to my computer.

Example: I was following a tutorial to create a banner and when I finished (without saving) it turned out like this. Now, the image from the tutorial is actually suppose to look like this when finished. Then, after I saved the image it looked like how it was suppose to look.
