Things have finally slowed down in my line of work (photography - weddings and anything else that I can focus on) and I'm working on updating my web site. I really like the edge effect on the Apple postcards and would like to figure out how to make this myself.
You can right click the various elements and assemble them quite nicely. My only complaint is the lower right corner on all their pages, it does not line up correctly. I'm surprised this slipped past their designers.
I want to control the drop shadow a bit more, less is better in my opinion. I also want to be able to tile the edge, create a small portion and be able to overlap and create whatever sizes I want.
I also like the shading on the cut edges, the slight discoloration.
In adobe pohotoshop elements 9 "effects" apple icons that change and alter photos with the drag and drop option have dissapeared. How do I make them re-appear?
I just downloaded Apple's new operating system "OS X Version 10.9" (Maverick). When I tried to open Adobe After Effects CS6 (which I purchased within the last year), immediately the following message came up (it wouldn't even open):   "You can't use this version of the application 'Adobe After Effects CS6' with this version of OS X.  You have 'Adobe After Effects CS6' 11.0."   When I googled this problem, I discovered that I could download "Adobe After Effects CC 12.0.1 Update." When I did this, the following message came up when I clicked "AdobePatchInstaller" :  "Update Failed  Updates could not be applied  This patch is not applicable for you. Pleas check for updates from the Help menu in your product to see a list of the latest updates available.  If the problem persist, contact customer support for further assistance."   The problem with those instructions, is that I can't even open the application to access the "Help menu" inside.Â
I have made an animation that after it completes, it displays an iFrame which has some input fields. The input fields behave great on a laptop pc or mac but when I use an Apple iPad, the cursor positions are way off outside of the input fields as I type.  Here is the website page: URL...Here I have the same iframe, one inside of edge and the other outside of edge. Both work fine on a pc or mac but if you try to use an Ipad, you will see that the edge one shows the input field cursor down and outside of the input field.  You can see for yourself,  I have set this up for you to test and see this error.The animate oam file is: URL....  Here is a link to the edge files, the .an and java files files: URL.....
I recently upgraded from Photoshop Elements 9 to Lightroom 5, When I moved the catalogue over, all keywords transferred, and Albums became collections. When I used Photshop Elements, I could easily sync the Albums with my Apple Tvs to display the pictures, as well as my other Apple Devices. I can not figure out how to export the collections to the Apple devices, especially the Apple TVs. There must be a way given the power of this software.
I am trying to make the warp effect of the texts from postcards. A perfect tutorial for this is here. However i it is for photoshop and i am having difficulty trying to mimic this using gimp. i come very close. but each step is slightly off.
if anyone knows of some Photoship filters that would allow me to add cool edge effects on my pictures.
I am building an online portfolio with landscapes pictures, and I just thought it would look nice to add some edge effects instead of just leaving the pictures as is.
I am looking for something a little arty.
Extensis Photoframe is probably a nice software but it is expensive and the trial version do not allow do work with your pictures.
Essentially I'm doing the same effect as you would use to blur a face; adjustment layer-mask-guassian blur. However, I can't figure out how I would go about feathering the edges of the blur. Instead of having a box with very clear cut edges where the blur/mask ends, I'd like to feather the edges and have the blur fade into the rest of the comp.
I have been using Photoshop for about six years and CS3 since it came out, on a 2Gb RAM Dell PC with a Pentium4 3.00GHz. I use a Canon 1Ds mark III so the file sizes are quite large and I have noticed that my PC is slowing down now.
I am considering an Apple iMac with a 24" screen but hear negative comments such as differentiation of shadows and highlights is difficult to judge on the glossy screen, reflections on the glossy screen, and the difficulty of upgrading in a couple of years time as it slows and programmes become more RAM and processor greedy.
The other option for the same money is a Chillblast Fusion Photo which with 1 Ter of hard drive in three ports, 8Gbs RAM and a 24 " DELL HD screen is a formidable combination with future adaptability available.
On the other hand I get fed up with the quirks of a PC system with Microsoft operating system that we are all familiar with, which seems to be avoided with the Apple system. I suppose I could use the new computer with nothing on it other than Photoshop and keep this prsent computer for Windows and Internet use?
My apple-space bar combo for zooming in quickly on a fixed point just doesn't work in CS6 which is more irritating than I would have thought possible. Any simple way of fixing it and/or are Adobe likely to reinstate it with any updates?
I'm trying to add a face to an apple so that the face takes on the same contours/shading of the apple (I'm not trying to morph the face with the apple; I'm just trying to add a face on it, possibly like a reflection). I tried using the 'sphere' filter on the face but just couldn't get it to match the apple. Right now it just looks like I layered a flat picture to the apple and lowering the transparency didn't help.
Adobe CS3 is still crashing on the iMac (10.6.8 Snow Leopard). For example, it will not process multiple raw (dng) or jpg files from Bridge through Photoshop. I deactivated and reinstalled Adobe CS3 on the iMac. I did save the preferences for Dreamweaver, Bridge, and Photoshop before uninstalling.  I get this message every time and Photoshop freexes and must be Force Quit.io error: general photoshop error occurred. this functionality may not be available in this version of photoshop. - (no additional information available> : 1798  I got Adobe CS3 to work on the MacBook (10.6.8 Snow Leopard) after reinstating it again from the external hard drive and on the new MacBookPro (Apple OS 10.8.4 Mountain Lion).
If your scanner manufacturer does not support scanning in 64-bit mode, or you have issues scanning with TWAIN, you can scan into Photoshop CS6 using Apple’s ImageKit technology, which is built into Photoshop CS6, does not need a plug-in to be installed, and provides access to a large number of scanners.  That doesn't work with my Epson Perfection V350 Photo. I wonder if it actually works with any scanner. With Photoshop CS6 have wiped out many scanners that don't have 64-bit compliant drivers, why doesn't Adobe connect with Apple's Image Capture app? Why doesn't the V350 work with the ImageKit technology alllegedly part of Photoshop CS6?
I need to download the Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) preset for Photoshopt CS6, but cannot find it anywhere on the web. Â I am trying my hardest to use Photoshop to process a video, using Alien Skin's Exposure 4 (my favorite plugin of all time, and a huge part of my photo workflow).I would happily use Premier, but Premiere cannot use Exposure 4. Â I discovered how to install the other ProRes presets here: URL....but the ProRes 422 (HQ) is not included in that download. Since I am exporting from FCPX at 422 (HQ), I do not want to suffer any degradation on the round trip to Photoshop, so I want to find the 422(HQ) preset. Â difference between ProRes 422, and ProRes 422 (HQ) is inconsequential, I'd be happy to hear that, as well. If that were the case, i'd just operate at regular old 422 and know that I was doing my best to protect the footage.I'm on a 5,1 MacPro running FCPX 10.8 and Photoshop CS6 v13 (trial), I also own Photoshop CS5.1
I just received my Apple Cinema Display and I connected to a PC with Windows Vista.
The Apple Display does not have an OSD menu only a briteness (+)&(-) button on the side. If I wanted to calibrate my display with i1 Display 2 I can only use it in (Easy Mode). The reason being Easy Mode doesn't have the options for white point, gamma, luminance, contrast, rgb controls or briteness.
I like to create some tire tracks, like the ones Apple had for its iPod advertising month ago… --> white background, tire tracks behind the iPod... (sorry, I didn't find the image)
Basically, I need to align tire tracks to a path. I’d like to have 3 pairs of tracks, 2 are wiggly like a drunken driver would cause, and 1 pair is straight, also on a white background.
This has been bugging me for a while since I can never get it quite right :( I'd like to be able to add 1px borders to shapes that actually look good. I've seen them on Apple's site and I've tried to replicate them with no success. Mine never look this good... they're either too pixelated or too wide. Here's a screenshot of what I'm trying to replicate: ....
how to create Apple's (cool) Aqua look? I've seen one tutorial that uses Actions but it also uses pre-made shapes and I don't know how to over-ride them.
I have attempted to import an Aperture library file but it is greyed out so I cannot select it. Whilst it is possible to copy and paste to the desktop, I am talking about a 50Gb file.
I've made an animation in photoshop CS 5.1 with three layers that I want to export to Apple's application Motion in order to work on each layer individually. I can easily make a quicktime file, but I can't work on each layer this way. When I import the photoshop file I get the prompt "All Layers," which I choose, but there is no movement when I hit play on the timeline. Only one frame is displayed when there are a number of different frames, and animations.
I'm using an IMac with 8 gigs of ram and 3 external hard drives with a terabyte internal drive.
I did it on the apple logo coverings. So make images on the sphere. Of course, I did it "Ctrl + T > Warp" Do not automatically lead? So simple action? URL...
