I am using Photoshop CS2 and have windows XP.
I want to create images that simulate original artwork such as oil paintings so that the images show brush strokes, layers of paint and paint blobs?
I intend to print the images onto canvas to simulate original artwork.
I've been asked to work with a blogger who until now has accepted images to their size uncompressed of resized. We've got around the problem of the max image size by using the plugin Insanity. Which has done a great job however what it doesn't do is re sample the images for the web.
Usually if I blog myself, I always save for web but I'm having real trouble, real real trouble creating an action that will save for web to the original folders instead of a separate one.
The thing is that there are so so many images in so many different folders and sub folders these must be modified and replaced ready for re upload.
I've set up iphoto to open photos directly into elements 11 editor. After making changes, how can I save the images (orginal and modified) back into iphoto?

View 1 Replies View RelatedOld PC Windows XP with PSE8. New PC Windows 8 with PSE11.I did a backup and restore operation. After the restore, there was a large list of files that could not be restored. I also noticed that there were a large number of thumbnails with a question mark attached.
I did a reconnect using FindAll missing files. Instead of placing the recovered files in their original path and folder location, they ended up in an entirely different path in the Folders View. I tried to drag the folders back to their original location, but got the message: folder with that name already exists at the requested location, even though it wasn't visible. In addition some of the folders involved were no longer visible in either path structure.
I checked in the My Folders View, and it showed that the folders involved in the reconnect were still intact. I opened one or two and found they contained the original missing images.How can I get the folders and their images back to their correct places in the original path structure?
Every time I open an image in Illustrator, it is 3-times smaller than the original image started out. For example:
An image starting out with the dimensions:
Width: 5.35 inches / 1070 px / 385.2 pt
Height: 5.24 inches / 1048 px / 377.3 pt
Once it is opened up in Illustrator the dimensions are contorted to:
Width: 1.93 inches / 386 px / 139 pt
Height: 1.89 inches / 378 px / 136.1 pt
And this is just from opening the image. I have not done anything as of yet. All I have to look at is a distorted pixelated mess. Why Illustrator is doing this to my image files and how do I get it to open image files with the proper dimensions?
It happened a couple months ago, but I thought it was a bug, and now it's happened again, and now it's corrupting my original files.
Here's what's happening, at least my actions thus far. Lightroom 4 worked fine and dandy. No issues whatsoever. We then upgraded to LR5.
Now, as I'm going in Library tab through images as it's seems to be pulling up an image it shows up with jagged edges and just looks -- corrupted. So then I look at the file in Finder and now that image can't be opened up in Photoshop, Preview or any other application. For some reason LR's previews are corrupting the ACTUAL, ORIGINAL images.
Now back a month ago, it happened when it wasn't a big deal, I had the RAW original files backed up, but now, now it's corrupted at least two folders and the original RAW files can't be opened. Here's the summary:
-- As for corrupt cameras/disks -- I have files from Hasselblaad and from Canon doing this. I have many different cards that were used in this.
-- It's only when I opened up in Lighroom 5. Otherwise files were fine. JPEG conversions that were made from these images weeks ago were fine.
-- It's happening to one out of every 5 pictures or so. Which is A LOT OF PICTURES TO BE CORRUPTED.
For the ones that I have backed up, now I have to go figure out which....rename them...etc. AND HOPE AND PRAY this doesn't happen again.
-- It says it can't open the file.
And then when I go to finder, through lightroom, to RAW image it doesn't work to even bring it in Photoshop.
SO it's corrupting my files so that Photoshop can't recognize them. NOT all photos are being affected, just the folders I go to in Lighroom. Any other files in lightroom (from same day/camera) are okay.
LR 3.6 has serious limitations causing what should be an easy task hours to trouble shoot. Exporting original size JPEG images to DVD should be a no brainer but the application was not built to handle MS OS 7 64bit. Choice is to upgrade to LR v 4 but will it work?

View 2 Replies View Relatedby mistake I imported (moved) several AVI and MPEG videos into a specific folder that I inteded to use as backup for one of my relatives.
Problem is that my original folders, where I stored these videos, along with specific names regarding genre and/or subject were left intact, with nothing inside them.
I am trying to find a way to "revert" the import process and send those files back to where they belong.
I am currently using Lightroom 4.4
Recently I have been asked for certain images taken in 2011.
When searching for them I have discovered that the original capture information has been "gone missing / become lost".
For clarity, the information I'm referring to is the ACTUAL capture date and time of the original image as appears in the raw file metadata.
This data no longer appears on ANY of the subsequent version of any image taken in that year whether PSD or Jpeg.From checks already carried out, the data remains on the original RAW files.
All other years are OK.How can I transfer the date & time of the original image capture from the raw file to subsequents copies (PSD / Jpegs etc)? As literally hundreds of images are involved, is there a bulk routine that I can perform to synchronise this data?
I am having problems trying to produce an image with reflections. I have been doing it in the past with Xara4. My procedure is to take a number of images, create copies of them, flip them then add transparency once they are in place as refelctions. These are all placed onto a dark background; reflections are stretching beyond the background at this stage. And in the past if I select all, then Arrange>Combine Shapes>Intersect Shapes then I can have the whole image without the transparent regions of the reflections. My plan is to have the background transparent and save all as a png to preserve the transparency on web. But it doesn't seem to happen in my latest attempts. Instead at the Intersect Shapes stage I get a tiny part of the background as my final image....

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen you select the option to apply any changes & overwrite your original photo does the program attempt to try to a default setting to keep the picture approximately the same size as it was before? (assuming that you haven't cropped it) If it doesn't default to a size automatically can is there an option to do so?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have both CS3 and CS6 and I can figure out how to do this exceedingly simple thing. Take an image, use a tool to create a spot on the image, make that location a hotspot - making it clicking/a hyperlink to a URL.
This used to be - in the 90's - incredibly easy to do. I've tried slicing an image - but when I save for web - it creates multiple files, including, depending on how I save it, an html file.
That doesn't work for my needs. I just want to take a gif/jpg/png image and make certain spots on it hyperlinked to different pages in my website. When I'm done, I need it to be, to remain, as one file, as one single gif/jpg/png file.
No html. No css. Just straight-up image mapping/hotspot creation.

I created an automated task to individually resize images and make thumbnails. Then I made a simple gallery layout in html and manually coded each thumbnail to link to the original sized image.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm producing a video in 1080p HD. I'm having an artist create a number of anatomical drawings and want to zoom in on portions of the drawings for some scenes. The artist plans to work with Adobe Illustrator CS5 and Photoshop CS5 to create the drawings, and will create layers I can use to animate the drawings. That is, I'll put a layer in motion over a background to create animation.
I've found the photoshop FILM & VIDEO 1080p/29.97 preset will allow the artist to create high quality images that will work when filling the frame, but I also want to zoom in on the images in Adobe Premiere CS5.
Are there different Photoshop/Illustrator settings I can have the artist use to create higher resolution drawings that will stay in high enough resolution for zooming in at 2x or 3x after I import them to Premiere?
How to make GIF images already. The problem I'm having is that I can't seem to figure out how to edit all the frames at once. I would like to brighten them up and add curves, maybe sharpen.
I tried selecting all the layers, but then all the image editing options greyed out and weren't available. I really don't want to individually edit 58 frames, Is there a way to edit all at once? I'm using Photoshop CS3.
I want to make an in-store advertising video for a retail shop. I will be using Adobe Photoshop to create the images and create the movie using Windows Live Movie Maker. The movie will run on a Hannspree 42" LCD TV.
Below are some images of the TV I need the movie to run on:
What settings do I use when in Photoshop for this TV?
For example, I choose File > New > Preset: Film & Video > Size: ..........but what size?
Is there a certain pixel size, aspect, resolution etc that I need to be aware of for LCD TVs and/or this model in general?
Here is an image:
I have noticed that Windows Live Movie Maker has an Aspect ratio option, such as:
But I still want to know what settings I use in Photoshop.
Using CS6 on my desktop and laptop. On desktop, all my palettes are on the second monitor and the primary monitor is dedicated to displaying images. All the images are in tabs.
On the laptop (18" widescreen), I have two columns of the palettes I use constantly on the right, and the tools against them. This leaves me space to the left for images to display. My problem is that when I have things set up with images as tabs, the images appear to use the entire screen, always partially obscured by my palettes.
Is there a way for me to have CS6 full-screen, palettes on the right, AND somehow define a space so my images aren't obscured by the palettes?
Been messing around with Image Ready 3.0 for some time and have had some good experience making animated gifs...but only by adding to or subtracting from the layers of the same image.
How can I tween between 2 or more separate images?
I know it might sound weird, HDR images are usually built from multiple images all taken from the same place at the same time but using different exposures.
I'd like to create a HDR image from multiple versions of one source image. I have a number of pictures where I've taken the photo exposing for the sky. This resulted in the landscape/buildings being darker than desired usually. These areas can be easily brightened up though. I find that if I expose for the landscape and buildings, then the sky is washed out and unrecoverable. If I expose for the sky, the landscape and buildings are merely "a bit dark" and can be recovered simply by adjusting the brightness/contrast in photoshop. Of course doing this washes out the sky again, so I need to create a composite of good sky and brightened landscape and buildings. I'm not creating anything professional, so it's not important that I use the best pro techniques.
What I've traditionally done is have two layers, one with the original image (with the good sky) and one with the lightened image (with the good landscape and buildings) and using a mask for the sky, I can put the good (unlightened) sky on the lightened image. Standard stuff really.
So when I heard about HDR automation, I'd hoped that I could take my original image (with the good sky), take a second lightened version of the very same image, put it on a layer, select a HDR automation tool and have it somehow merge them magically. When I've tried this though, nothing seems to happen. I'm left with an unmerged image. I'm pretty sure I'm going about it wrong.
I wonder whether this HDR automation isn't going to help me and perhaps my fake pseudo HDR image creation technique is worth sticking with.
I've been using Corel Photopaint 8 for many years and only just switched to PS CS3 recently (mostly driven by the thought of this cool HDR feature). I'm still finding my way a bit. I'm using it on XP if that makes a difference.
I have 4 pictures of the Disney World Park logos (castle, MGM, Epcot, and animal Kingdom). What I want to try and do is merge all the photos into one photo that I can then print on T shirts for our family trip (18 people). I want each picture to be visible, but sort of merge into the other, like a collage I guess.

I see this on many logos and cannot figure it out.
I'm on PS CS4 and an intel iMac. This may seem obvious to others, but I can't figure how the adobe navigation images (here at the top) are made. There seems to be something beyond just a gradient that is more texture oriented.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am relatively new to Photoshop, and am using CS3. I would like to be able to create a collage with a background image, with superposed layers that are each an image cropped to a circle or ellipse. I found an article on how to do this with a heart shape using Photoshop Elements. He...using-Elements), but after a few paragraphs, the controls specified there do not correspond with CS3.
Preferably I would like each circle to be framed with a relatively thin colored border, to set them apart from each other and the background. Outside the border, the circular layers should be transparent.
I understand that I can create a simple circular shape that will show up as a layer and have a corresponding path, and that I can make a selection from the path.
I create or load an image it is always darker than it is actually supposed to be. When I go to save a created image, it will always be lighter. What I want to know is how to make the image on the screen the same color as when I save it to my computer.
Example: I was following a tutorial to create a banner and when I finished (without saving) it turned out like this. Now, the image from the tutorial is actually suppose to look like this when finished. Then, after I saved the image it looked like how it was suppose to look.
