I am totally new with photo editing and barely know anything about GIMP, so I need a ton of detailed explanation.
Here is the image:
Image 41
I want to make the girl in the middle closer to the two guys, right now it looks a bit awkward. How can I do this while keeping the integrity of the background.
main picture - group of people (no room at either end to insert anyone)
2nd picture - 2 people standing together
Best place is to put them at the back of the group. But how do I do this? I am new to gimp and think I have to play with layers, but don't know how to.
I have photoshop elements 11. People analyzer will not recognize people or allow me to tag people in my photos. It works with my older camera photos such as from my Nikon D300 but will not work with photos from my D800 (RAW).
Anyone have a link to a tutorial on how to make people look as if they are frozen over? I would also like to thank everyone on this board for all their help all the time. This may not be the biggest photoshop forum on the net.
I imported a bunch of images (I had to re-create my catalog due to file system restructuring), the tags came in nicely, but a bunch are "People". How do I move those from "Keywords" to "People Tags"?
Using Photoshop or Elements, it is possible to open up two image of the same subject (I.e. a building) taken taken at several minutes interval, then using the move tool you combine the two images, then add a layer mask, you can edit out any people or distractions, how is this possible in Gimp, I have both Photoshop and Elements (Both Legit), but I dont want to return to Windows.
I recently upgraded from PSE 10 to PSE 11. I already used tags to identify People by name. However, in the new People View not all of my people tags are present as People Stacks despite running the face recognition function. If I use the Add People function it just runs the face recognition feature that I have already run and named the specific person I want to see in the stacks.Strange thing is when I click the Add Group button I can see the missing people but do not know how to get them shown in the People Stacks?
I have about 11,000 pix in PSE 11 and growing, all of a large family. Using 'Add People" in organizer worked well up till I reached 9,000 pix. I get the msg that all faces have been tagged. I've been scanning about 300 pix from our old albums and always try to add people after each group. I am not even getting the "Is this a person" message. I can go to each batch and manually answer "Who is this? Database size problem??
I have forgotten how to get PE to use the correct version of names in People Recognition.I hit a few wrong (lower-case) keys iand those first spelling versions continue to auto-fill even when versions that start with capital letters are entered.
I have just upgraded from PSE 9 to PSE 11 and have imported some pictures that I have tagged in another program. Importing tags for everything other than people works fine (already used tags are recognized and reused). But importing tags for people proved to be a problem. They did not merge automatically with my previous people tags in PSE. My imported people tags ar now placed under "Imported Keyword Tags" in the "Media" workspace. How do I merge or move them to the "People" work space where the people tags for PSE 11 is placed?
I also wonder why people and other tags are put in different places. Is it possible to view all keyword tags in one list/place?
How do I move the text closer together in this masthead. I want the Rubia Advertising to be just above the line and the phone number to be just below it.
1) when I go to the shortcut for my workspace in the menu items called "my workspace", CS2 asks me "do you want to save changes to the current shortcut file, before you reset the shortcut"
I'VE NEVER UNDERSTOOD THIS. this is the only shortcut in all of PHotoshop that ask me this question. I don't get it, and I've posted repeated about this.
I always choose no, since I don't understand why this and only this shortcut ask.
2) Why every few weeks do all the shortcuts I've assigned in the last month disappear? posted a few on this too with no resolution.
Now today got closer: today, when I chose not to save the workspace shortcut (why I have to chose every time, still don't know), and then BAM, all my new shortcuts were discarded -- even ones that have been working consistent for last few weeks. why?
and... if I chose save, then a dialogue box comes up asking if want to replace current set of shortcuts. that's fine, but why would I be going through all that just to quickly get my workspace back in order? I don't get it.
I took a one-day course on Photoshop with NAPP and the instructor was showing us how to bring a photo closer together where the objects are closer but it doesn't distort the photo.
I have an important question about how to set up my files for print. In school I was taught to work in CMYK or at least convert whatever RGB file I'm working on to CMYK. I'm at work now and the files I am printing are coming out dull (in CMYK). I converted a file to RGB and assigned the RGB 1998 colour space and re printed it. The first CMYK print looked grey and was not vibrant. The new RGB print printed very vibrant and matched the screen colours better than the CMYK. My boss wants me to do the rest of the prints in RGB seeing as it prints with better vibrancy. Also, I am working in Illustrator.
So my question is: Can I convert all my CMYK files to RGB, send them to the printing company and expect the prints to be vibrant? Or will converting my CMYK files to RGB mess up the printing companies standards?
RGB prints better, but I was taught to always print in CMYK mode.
Actually I'm going to leave the files in CMYK since turning them into RGB may cause colour loss during the final large prints. I will print the presentation files in RGB though.
I'm trying to get the dimension text that I pull out to the side closer to the actual dimension marks. The 2 1/2" and 2" shown have a minimum distance they can get toward their dimensions. I would like it to be about half of what it is, but so far I haven't been able to find the property that changes that.
I'm having trouble getting the edges of my eyes to look like they are part of the chair, which got me wondering. Is there a way to feather my edges with increased intensity closer to the edge? To be specific, I'd like to start the feather 100px inside the border with 60% opacity, all the way to the edge (border) with 0% opacity. I tried doing this manually a couple of ways and it just didn't look uniform.
I have also tried with the eyes seperated (without the middle area), but I still have the same issues.
When I change the opacity on my text layer, the text does not fade. It disolves instead. The resolution was terrible, became worse and then the text suddenly dissapered.
I don't think it was the disolve type either when it is set in that mode. However,I tried changing the mode anyway
I changed the mode to normal, divide,. overlay, burn, soft light, subtract. Whatever I tried it made no difference.
I have recently discovered that there is more to gradients in GIMP than I had previously thought: the different varieties of pre-sets, as well as the"off-set" tool. How to make a new gradient of your own? Any other cool stuff? (Being able to manipulate gradients would be cool.)
