First time poster here. I have been trying hard to reproduce a vintage color effect, but I haven't received the results that I wanted. Any suggestions?
Here are some of the photos that I've been using as a reference and trying to reproduce the effect:
I've tried many different combinations of selective color black/black, adjusting the lower end red/blue in curves, and desaturations. I have come close but it's just not exactly the same. Any tips?
I was able to download a vintage action several years ago that would give the pictures a vintage look but the action seems to have fallen apart and has some missing pieces such as fibers etc. Anyone know if there are any new ones around ?

I would like to know if there is any way to remove this discoloration and get the background back to a normal color.
The picture below is an example of how the backgbround color has become discolored. How to get rid of that ugly background color? I have tried using the paint bucket but often that tends to also fill in areas you don't want to lose.

I am creating colage images in Photoshop CS4. I sometimes use scanned vintage daguerreotypes or other small snapshots. They are often small sized at 3.5" x 4.5" or 4.25" x 5.5". My Epson 835 scanner can scan in at 300, 400, up to 800 dpi. If I intend to print these scans at 8x10, 11x14 or a larger size within the overall collage, should I scan in at the highest dpi allowed by my scanner? Does this make a real difference after 300 in resolution/clarity?
Â
Also, Does Photoshop CS4, in the enlarging process, as I bring the smaller image into my composite and stretch size it up with (T) tool, end up just making "junk pixels" using "Bicubic" or "Bicubic smoother" in the printing from flattened PSÂ file, even tho I scanned in at a high dpi? scan in at best dpi so that the image won't be pixelated, lose resolution as it is used larger inside the final composite collage.
Basically, I have drawn a logo on paper and I have scanned it in 1600 dpi, so it is a fairly big and detailed image, im just wandering how to go about making into an accurate drawn logo without using a tablet, a quick and easy way with a good outcome.

All has gone well so far, however, I'm now trying to figure out how to clean it up and make it look "perfect". In terms of being perfect, I want it to look completely clean. I darkened the lines as much as I could and erased as much as I could, however, I've tried different things such as blurring, sharpening, and adjusting levels, but the lines still seem too jagged from the sketching. I'm wanting to smooth them out and make them look nice.
Here is my drawing:
and here is an example of what I would like it to look like(minus the completely filled in black part)
You see how crisp it is? No jagged edges, completely smooth and clean. This is what I want.

I'd like to Edit a document that's being scanned from a scanner (Epson cx5000 all in one printer)
More specifically i want to edit the text on the document. I know about OCR software and how it will convert the image into editable text in like MS word and what not, but that's not really what i need to do.
i need the document text to look exactly the same after the edit as it does from the scan, if you know what i mean.
I'm editing a certification. I lost my OC cert (oleoresin capsicum, commonly referred to as "Pepper Spray." you only need to be sprayed with it once in your life (so long as you have the cert); and I'm absolutely not about to get sprayed again, as I'd probably rather shoot myself in the leg.
I have another person's cert that i can scan, i just need to change the date and name on the cert.
I'm not having much luck getting the edited version too look right though. The text looks too sharp compared to the other text; matching fonts is proving tricky, and when printed off, the area that's edited looks "whiter" than the areas not edited.
How can I edit, and darken my scanned drawing. I used Pen to draw it and now I want to make some parts better by us PS.

View 3 Replies View Relatedwhen I scan the photos, they are showing up with a pattern on them.
I can not get this pattern out unless I use a blur more filter several times, but that makes the photo extremely blured and useless..
I'm scanning in page by page, without taking the photos out. (it's quick and dirty but works best for what I'm doing) Now I have templates set up in .psd for the differenrt sized pics, mostly 3x3 or 3.5 x 5, that I pull the scans into and touch up. Now I want to create an action that saves the photos as a .jpg, but when I do this it overwrites the previous .jpg. And I can't stop the action during the "save as" process. Any ideas what I can do here to streamline the process? I've tried searching, but couldn't find anyrthing specific to my perdicament.

I have a HP PC using Windows 7 and a scanner that worked just fine, Canon LIDE.
I scanned a number of photos and when I went into editor>image and the divide scanned photos was not an active choice. It was on the menu but I couldn't select it. I scanned a number of times to include setting the pictures at an angle just to be sure it could be detected. It used to work in PSE 9

When opening my jpeg photos in Photoshop elements 9, once saved elements seems put the image in a format that my Apple Mac isn't compatible with. So when I then try and upload the images to Facebook or other software in a bulk upload the images are highlighted and I therefore can't select them and upload.
View 16 Replies View RelatedIn Photoshop CS 6, I noticed that some of the filters I use (Mostly The Cut Out Filter in the Artistic Folder) is not on the filter dropdown list anymore like it has been on other versions of Photoshop. I have to go to FILTER GALLERY  Then I go to ARTISTIC then I can see the Cut Out Filter.
Is there any way I can make the Artistic Folder, or any other Filter Folder in the Filter Gallery a part of the Filter dop down list? This would be be a little faster and save me a few clicks with the mouse.

Question # 2. I have an EPSON 3490 Scanner and I scanned a document into PS 6 and it asks me to save it in a folder before I can open it up in Photoshop. Can I just Scan it in, and then decide where I want to save it? This was always the way in every other version of Photoshop. I really do not want to have 2 versions of the same picture on my computer.

Question # 3 Why does it always save as a .jpeg when I scan using Photoshop? I would like to always save it as a .psd as it scans in to Photoshop.
I scanned a bunch of photos onto a single page.
I want to extract each photo out into its own file (as either JPEG or PNG).
Is there a faster way than selecting, creating a new file, pasting, and then saving?
Can I instantly create and save a new file based on the selected image area?
