Adjusting color backgrounds. I have a large number of images of fly-fishing flies which were photographed on not-quite-solid backgrounds of slightly differing colors. I'd like to efficiently adjust the backgrounds so they all appear roughly the same without affecting the flies themselves. The flies are hard to select because of their feathery, hair-like edges, and the backgrounds are hard to select because they have slight gradations of almost-solid colors.
I started noticing this problem a while back in CS5 and it seems to be ongoing in CS6. When I have a group of rows open in ACR, I can make adjustments as normal. Lets say that I have a bracket of images I shot of 10 frames.
I make adjustments on the ones I want to use, rate them and use the "select rated" button. If one of those images has a different color balance than the others, it will auto adjust it to match the rest. If the image that is viewable is the one with the different color balance, it will auto adjust the rest of them.
I have a duotone image (warm grey and black) as an eps in photosho linked to Illustrator file. I need to be able to adjust each color as needed in photoshop. It is already setup as a duotone image and correctly separates in illustrator. I can do overall adjustments as needed but I would like to be able to throw a curve/adjust each color on it's own as needed in photoshop, and then relink.  OS MAc SnowLeopard, CS5.
First off, I didn't know if I should post here or in the 'General Photoshop Discussion' forum. I don't really have a question as to 'how an image was made' [more like: how I can do it] but I do see many such questions asked in this section, so that’s where I posted.
Anyway, my question is what techniques/tools can I use to get the coloring on her nose to match that of the rest of her face? [she'd been crying ] I thought the 'Healing Brush Tool' might be useful but when I tried that, it didn't go well!
I just started working with Photoshop, so I might be making some stupid rookie mistake...but I can't figure out what the hell could be wrong.
When I draw something on a dark background it just vanishes as soon as I fill the area with the paint bucket!
If I have a dark grey background, and draw something in black using the brush, when I try to fill the drawing, for instance green, with the paint bucket, the entire picture becomes green! It was as if the drawing was never there.
At first I thought I had some wierd setting on my brush, but the wierd thing is that this only happens when I use dark colors. Doing the exact same thing with yellow and red, works perfectly fine.
I am trying to adjust the color levels between two photos such that a certain object in both photos has the same color in both images. I'll try and explain more with an example...
I've got two images taken under similar lighting conditions with the same camera and settings that came out with slightly different colors. There is a reference object in each photo that should match (in this case, a grey square of a paint sample). I'd like to adjust the color of the square in photo 2 so that it matches the square in photo 1, with the adjustments applied to the entirety of photo 2.
What I'd like to do is adjust the color and brightness/contrast of many layers of an animation. Now, for a still image with many layers I know you can generally add a partially transparent layer over the whole thing, however, since it's an animated .gif I have to do the same thing to each individual layer. I could probably go through and do it by hand and just get it over with. But, I'm curious if there's a feature for this, or is there a plugin that can repeat actions for multiple layers?
I tried to figure why I know long have the checkerboard transparent background in photoshop CC and I can't make transparency.I read somewhere they change this option I have to do PNG now. ugh really bums me out the white background I am stuck with
when i want my checkerboard background back Is there any way to get it back?It isn't because I chose white background, I chose transparent background but its white not the usual transparency.
We designed id cards (having width:1062 , height:672 pixels and resolution:300) using background of width:2560 and height:1600 Â Eventhough we use backgrounds with high resolutions,while printing in ID card machine,there are strokes in between.We couldn't get good output.What could i do. Â Here is the background i used . How to design our own backgrounds?
I'm working on a design that seems a bit bland so I thought about adding some texture to the background, though I dont want it to interfere with the foreground elements like text, and images. Â 1. I can reduce the transparency, what else might I do? Fade it out? Â 2. Just curious to hear some examples of when you might use a texture for a background of an image? Do you only do it for very specific reasons?.
i have a picture of a car and i would like to take some parts of the background out but not all of its how can i do its, i have tryed using Filter>Extract but it dosnt seem to work, and i read on a site that i can use Crop tool but i am not familuar with that tool is their another way to do this.

how to change the background of the below photo. The main reason is to remove the harsh shadow but I would also like to experiment with different backgrounds.
Has anyone found a supplier of professional backgrounds that can be used in conjunction with wedding photography images.?
I'm looking for pale soft images with no real pattern that can be used as a layer above a photograph to give that dreamy but slightly coloured look.
I believe there are suppliers that produce these backgrounds but can't find what I want by searching. See the background applied to the left page in pdf attached.
I'm trying to recreate either one of the backgrounds in the 2 images below. I have a fairly good knowledge around Photoshop. I've tried rendering and filtering and just couldn't reach a relatively similar background to either one of these backgrounds.
I am wanting to learn to extract people from my studio shots and put them in neat background settings, where can I get pics that will work well for the backgrounds?
So everytime I open a new document it's not a transparent background. Ill even start a new document as transparent and RGB. Still a white background when it is created. So I tried adding an image. Deleted the first layer. Still nothing. So I used a magic wand, deleted the background. Still white.
I remember having this problem before and my professor told me what it was. But I forget what she said, it was over a year ago. Anyone have any ideas?
make logos with transparent backgrounds, so that when they are placed in a DTP program (PageMaker) they do not have a white box around them, I have been using PhotoShop’s transparent export functions but inevitably this leave the image looking bitmapped, especially with text, or just plain bad. Is there anyway one can make logos with transparent backgrounds and have them look good?
try to take out a few people in some photos and put them together into one huge photo.
I've tried to do the old remove background way, but I can't get it smooth enough, I've also tried the Layer mask, burn levels way I saw on TechTV's Call for help.
I'm trying to do the 'ol text with transparent background (so i don't have to change the image each tiem i change the background.) I make a transparent background but when i save it turn the background to white. How do i make the background transparent when i save it?
how do i make transparent backgrounds with PS? whenever i save an image with a transparent back in PS, the background shows up as white on the picture file.
