Photoshop :: Crop Price Tag Off Book Covers And Touch Up The Image?

May 18, 2006

I would like to scan the cover of my book but on it has a price tag that is very difficult to remove. Even if i removed it, there will be bits and pieces of it left.

Does anyone know how i can crop the price tag and make sure that that cropped area blends in with the book?

And if the book is a little bit yellowish as it is quite vintage, how do i touch up image?

GIMP :: Make Cassette Tape Covers / J-Cards With Square CD Cover Image

Sep 12, 2012

I'm trying to take the square cd cover image and make a cassette tape cover, or j-card, with that image.

Here's a picture of a j-card template.

Right now all I want is the front cover, spine and tail. I wasn't sure if the templates I found were compatible so i tried to make my own template. What I did was make three separate ones. One for the front cover, one for the spine and one for the tail. I was able to take the square image and use the scale tool to make the image fit inside the front cover. The first problem I had was not knowing if the image quality was good enough to print. It seemed easier to use inches when I made the template and not pixels. So I made the front cover template 4 in by 2.5625 in. I exported the image as a jpg but the final image looked too small. So now I'm not sure how many pixels I need for a printable picture.

Now with the spine and tail most likely I'll just chose a background color and type over it...Artist, Album Name, Song Titles ext. My plan was to use the jpg images I exported and paste them together, then save that final image as a jpg. and print.

Photoshop :: Background Covers 1st Layer?

Aug 28, 2012

Level: Newbie'ish    OS: Win7 64bit    PS:CS6
 
I am just curious about the following...
 
 Below is the layers panel with the BG layer OFF and the picture below it shows how my image looks when the BG is OFF.
 
 Now here is the layers panel with the BG layer ON and here's my image when the BG layer is ON
  
I am a bit confused as to why the white BG is covering the 1st layer above it ... isn't the BG layer suppose to Always be Behind the 1st layer? Both BG layers are locked and in the same Z order ....
 
So, I'm just wondering why this is happening.

Dec 20, 2008

I make InDesign photo covers very well. If I wanted to begin using PS (CS3) too to make my photo covers more sophisticated, what feature or technique would I use in PS or how to steps for making a photo cover, using PS, but with final design in IDCS.

I know I can simply use feathering in IDCS but I want to do more sophisticated designs.

Photoshop :: Cd Covers By Mixing Images From Different Photos

Feb 20, 2004

I want to create cd covers by mixing images from different photos. Collage if you will.

I found a tutorial that describes the selection process and so forth. I also read something about how Image Ready makes it easier to cut up pictures for rearranging. How so?

Also I wonder if I can use photoshop to make images appear "ghostly". Like the ghosts in the Haunted House film. Or the librarian ghost in Ghostbusters.

Photoshop :: Type Cursor Covers Several Lines Of Text CS6

Aug 5, 2013

In Photoshop CS6 the flashing type cursor cuts through several lines of text (see image). 

This makes it hard to select text since it is hard to tell which line the cursor will select (see image). 

Can the text cursor be resized?  This happens no matter what type size is used or what paragraph settings are selected. I am using Windows 7 professional, service pack 1 on a Dell Precision T3500 with 8.0 GB RAM.

Lightroom :: Unnecessary Page Limit For Blurb Book In Book Module?

Feb 25, 2014

I am in the process of making a photobook using Lightroom and discovered when I reached page 240 that I couldn't add any additional pages, much to my surprise.  I was surprised because I knew from Blurb's website that the limit for standard paper is 440 pages and mistakenly assumed that this limit would also apply within Lightroom.  I did more research online and found many others being surprised by this limitation after spending hours and days on a photo book.  I will likely work around this by exporting from Lightroom to .jpg and uploading to Blurb, but that will take extra time and effort and reduces the appeal of using Lightroom to create a Blurb book.  I had also tried exporting from Lightroom to .pdf only to find that the .pdf format exported by Lightroom is not compatible with the requirements of Blurb.

Lightroom :: Why Does Book Not Upload To Blurb From 4.2 Book Module

Oct 29, 2012

I am trying to up load a 40 page 12" x 12" photo book to Blurb from the book module in Lightroom 4.2.  It renders the pages and then having rendered the cover gets stuck, about 50% to 60% through the process. None of the photographs are starred or colour coded. I have uploaded successfully from this iMac in the last few weeks.

Paint.NET :: Removing (novel By) From Ebook Covers

May 18, 2013

I've got two ebooks coming out with "A NOVEL" in one and "a novel by" in the other. I put those in there thinking that they would distinguish them from other kinds of books, but hanging around in the ebook forums the great majority of people are like, 'Using 'a novel by' is amateurish and unnecessary as the book will be amongst other novels.'
 
Well, I've looked at plenty of ebooks online I thought were novels that ended up being short stories and I was  not pleased, so I'm not entirely convinced I should be getting rid of them (the 'a novel by,' that is).

question #1) Do you think I should be getting rid of them?
 
Question #2) If so, any good way of doing that, where it still looks good?
 
The Find I did in paint.net before I knew about layers (unfortunately), so everything there is on the same layer.
 
Man of God was done by a professional cover designer and I have asked him to remove it, but I'm not sure if he will or not. (He did the cover maybe 7 months ago and I've got an email into him three days ago and haven't  heard back.) So I don't know how this one was made.
 
And one last question: what is up with the file re-sizing action? I know that's vague, but when I re-sized The Find photo to 50% the paint.net uploader said it was too big. When I re-sized it to 40%  paint.net said it was only 33.24 kb. Can that be? Plus paint.net was calling the file sizes just about double what they were in the file's properties.

Lightroom :: How To Get A Book From Collections To An Active Book

Feb 14, 2014

I purchased Lightroom 5 and am creating a photo book through Blurb.  I accidently erased 38 pages, so after I re-created them, I clicked on Create Saved Book, which put it in Collections.  Now I am trying to work on the book again, and can open it, but when I go to the Library of photos, Lightroom automatically repopulates a new book with all the photos in that file and won't let me put them in the book I saved.  How can I get this partially finished book so that I can use it?
