How I might achieve an effect similar to the picture I've attached below. I'm most interested in knowing how you might go about creating this sort of cardboard texture with the speckled pattern. I've noticed a lot of awesome Mobile Apps using this technique and I would love to add it to my arsenal. Would you sample something else or create and overlay a texture/pattern?
I made 8 4x2s that will be place cards at a party. I wanted to print them on a 8 1/2 x 11 cardstock, so I created a new file that is 8 1/2 by 11 300 resolution and white background. When I drag my images to this file it is resized. It is resized to 5 1/4 by 2 1/2. Before, I save the files and use the file place and it does work without resizing, but this is difficult. (By the way my 4x2 have a stroke inside of 75 px for a border. I don't know if this is messing it up or not.
I've been spending way too much time unsuccessfully trying to figure this out.. I'm working in Illustrator CS6, printing some artwork on A6 cardstock and it will not center, even though it is centered on the artboard and in the media preview in the print panel. I would customize the media size, but the custom command in the dropdown list in the print panel is not available (it is grayed out). I tried customizing the media size in Page Setup and that didn't work (the printer spits out blank cards). I've tried using the A6 preset size in both the Print Panel and in Page Setup, and the artwork is still offset, or worse. I've tried printer defined settings, no luck.
The main question is how to center that artwork? Also, how can I access that custom media size command?
I'm using 2 different epson printers with the same result.
For my 3D scene, I have to use a texture file on the floor. If I use the only file, than it looks really boring and below par. What I want is, I want to generate some (around 6-8) texture files within the original texture file - so the colors of all the texture files remain same but only the texture varies.Likewise there are more than 500 texture files and I just can't do them manually. Is there any way out to do this in Photoshop?
I have a lava texture and a ground texture. I'd like to be able to make some cracks on the ground texture that would show through the lava texture below it. Something like a cracked mud look. I would be using this for a game I'm making form some terrain textures. Are there any plugins that would aid in making these transparent cracks and perhaps even add depth to the cracks?
I guess a spider web where the spider was on crack would be something I'm looking for. Similar to the following image:
I have a cylindrical object that I want to map a brick wall texture to.
How is this achieved?
I use a CAD program to make my basic object, then I rotate it (as best as I can) to achieve perspective. Then, I do a screen grab, and prepare to use the object in photoshop as my reference.
I also have a sample of the brick (actually stone) pattern that I want to sample.
I have my selection made and saved around this apple in the center of the picture.What I want to do is, put a crumpled paper texture on the apple and make it look like its made of a pice of crumpled paper. Also i want to make the selection colord and the rest of the picture black and white. How do i do this?
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.
1. I can reduce the transparency, what else might I do? Fade it out?
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 project open in a 3d view to paint on a 3d mesh. Everything is fine until I save, close, and reopen. When I open the file to resume I can no longer paint on the model. I can still go to the UV (flat) view for any of the materials on the model but I can't paint on the mesh in 3d view.
I can open a new 3d layer, re-import the mesh, save and reapply all the previously painted texture to the new mesh layer and keep working but this seems not a very efficient work-flow.
I don't think many 3d pros actually use this piece of PS for texturing.This is the first time I've tried the 3d functionality of PS so I may just be overlooking something.
I have some jpeg files that I would like to use as textures. As I understand it the Patterns folder is the same as the Textures so I am assuming this is where I need to place Texture files.However, I cannot seem to find any instruction regarding the use of .jpegs as textures/patterns.
Do, I just drag (from downloads) and drop the .jpegs into the Patterns folder like I would with a .pat file?I read a thread that said it's a pretty difficult process to convert/change a jpeg into a pat file ..is that true? Well, so how to make a pat outta a jpeg?
I'm looking to recreate the texture of this floor plan and its surroundings. I've had a few attempts at applying the texture through 'Pattern Overlay', though i'm not sure which blend mode to use? Or altogether if there's another way to achieve the texture? The aim is for it to be very light so it doesn't detract from the main plan of the building.
I am using CS5 and in Filter > Texturizing there are just the four pre=set textures, Canvas, Burlap etc. In the older versions of Photoshop it was possible to choose a texture using a file of one's own. Is this possible n CS5 ?
I don't get it: my old CS2 has PS with texture filter that actually is there, while my PS5 app shows an unselectable "texture" in filters. WHAT IS WITH THAT? I feel ripped - off now that I need to use it in this project.
I've made a logo in Photoshop 7.0 with transparent texture and I've saved it in BMP ,PNG,JPEG.... formats. But this logo (in these formats) have got white background. Why?
I have searched everywhere and i cannot find out how to do this, i first saw pictures like this in a worth100.com contest, all i want to do is change textures like this flame to water like they did
my client needs an image of a smooth gray plastic container - problem is - it has not been produced yet - all they can offer me is the same plastic container with a red granit texture - how can I create an image of this container and remove the red granit texture - creating a gray plastic without removing all the highlights and shadows that make it have shape ? I don't want to completely redraw the image and have it look like an artist rendering rather than a photograph.
I want to create a website in which all the components have a fiberglass looking texture. I know this is possible but how would I go about doing this in Photoshop? here is a link to something that has that texture type I want:
I'd like to select a section of an image and then fill it with a texture from another image. For instance, I could add bark texture from a tree to a section of a face. I'm not sure how to select a texture from one image and apply it to another.
I'm creating a website for my Aunt's chocolate business and I'm in the brainstorming process. For the title I'd like to create a style similar to a Krackel Bar (sp?) on the text but I'm having trouble getting started. Am I asking for the impossible? Most texture tutorials begin with the difference clouds, but that doesn't seem to be working for this.
