1. I have a photo of a cat whose eyes are highly reflective of light. The color is not red but white. In another photo I have a photo of a dog whose eyes came out as bright green.
I'm wondering, in GIMP 2.8 for Windows XP Pro, how I might remove those colors and substitute the animal's true colors or something more natural? It's not red eye or else I would try the Red Eye removal feature.
2. I have a third photo of a dog lying next to papers. I'd like to substitute, perhaps, the blond/brown desk color over those white papers so that it looks like there are no papers in the photo.
Is there an easy way to do that? I was reading about an EXIF plug-in named Save for Web which is supposed to remove prior info about your photos. Will that plug-in work once I make the eye color and white papers changes in my photos?
I have tried using Textures mainly for replacing the background on a photo. So far I have been able to do it but alot of the times the main subject in the image is covered by the texture. My goal is to replace the background only with a texture and leave the rest of the image as is.

I have scanned our baseball teams calendar schedule which has the days colored-coded; red for home games and white for away games. Also, they certain special home dates colored in a light blue. I want to replace all the light blue days with the same red that is already in use on the rest of the schedule.
I can find no way to use the red as the sample color, or transpose the RGB values shown into corresponding Hue, Saturation and Lightness values used in the Replace Color tool.

I am newbie in photoshop. I am using CS4. I have a picture with my daughter i just want to edit and replace new background but there some portion in the picture its hard for me to remove colors to the hair. i just want to retain tiny hair without erasing totally.I used pen tool to crop it.
I am running CS4 64 bit and since installing it, when you select a color either from an image or the swatches pallet using the eyedropper the selected colour automatically defaults to the background. It does the same when you are using the brush tool and alt click to select a new color when painting. I have checked Adobe help and it says you should alt/click to put the colour in the background, if I alt click with the eyedropper it places the new colour in the foreground, which is the opposite of what it is meant to be.
Is there a way to change the background color of the lay out tabs different than what AutoCAD offers in the uniform background choice? I have a hard time telling what tabs I have selected to publish when I have it set to white. I really would like to keep the background white and not have to change it to black. When I have it set as black it is very obvious which tabs are selected. Is there a way to keep the uniform background on the layouts as white but the background on the layout tabs show as black when selected rather than the same color as the layout background.

I was asked to cut out the background from a logo to make it transparent so the logo would look nice on a variety of backgrounds. I've been given a good quality jpeg file.
What I did was I selected (by colour) the background (white), inverted the selection, copied it and pasted as a new image.
It's all fine (the logo itself doesn't have any other elements) but there's still some whiteish/greyish outline around certain elements of the logo.
If I were to do it manually, it'd probably take ages. What would be the best way to accomplish it?
changing the background colors of multiple photos. I have tryed all the erase options, but colored boex are always left after I finish erasing. While erasing there is also a black square around the circle shape erase tool.
I did select the foreground and background colors to be white. White is the only colors selected.
I am using Quickmask a lot, and I find a few of the user interface issues in it befuddling.
1) Sometimes when I change to quickmask mode (Q key), the foreground and background colors reverse. Sometimes they don't. Right now they do on one computer but don't on the other. I have never been able to figure out why this is, or what I can do to change it. (FWIW, I find the reversing of colors to be most confusing, and I like it when they don't change).
2) When I go into Quickmask mode and then out, my selected layer changes. If I have a layer mask selected, then hitting the Q key twice will change the selection from the layer mask to the layer pixels. I can't tell you how many times this has led me to edit the pixels rather than the mask. Is there some way to turn this off, so that the layer mask stays selected? (If not, I'll post this as a feature request).
3) I tend to work in full-screen mode. Is there some easily-recognized cue to whether I am in quickmask mode or not other than the hard-to-see "pressed" state of the quickmask button? I am continually getting confused as sometimes when I am working quickly, it seems like the Q doesn't register, so I hit it twice, and then I spend a few seconds trying to figure out which mode I am in. I like the text in the window frame which gives me instant feedback of my status, but I like the extra pixels of fullscreen mode. Is there another option that gives me full screen but easily-seen feedback on my editing mode?
A pop up message says Could not complete your request due to a program error. I am using the paintbrush tool, 150 soft round brush size. It will not allow me to change foreground and background colors or paint. What can I do?
