Photoshop Elements :: Apply Uniform Tone To Image
May 14, 2013
I have a lot of pictures taken under restricted library conditions where lighting is wysiwyg. A lot of the pics end up with an annoying gradation of tone caused by the poor lighting (and my poor photography skills), such as the attached image.
I use PSE 9 on a Mac.
How can I apply a uniform tone to images like this in PSE? For example, in the attached sample, the left-hand portion has a nice strong tone, while the right side is washed out. How can I create a nice unformity across the entire image?

In camera raw, "apply auto tone adjustments" option in the preferences dialog is not same with the "auto" button on the basic panel, isn't it? Both of them control the same sliders, are there any relationship between them?

I imported tiff images into Lightroom 4 that were scanned by DigMyPics.com. The color of the images look good on the Windows 7 photo viewer. It looks horrible in Lightroom 4. My monitor is callibrated, the import develop setting is set to "none" , the box is unchecked "apply auto tone adjustments".I think that the windows viewer is showing the accurate color of the scan and LR is not. I don't think DigMyPics would send this awful color.

I would like to take a basic sketch drawing and use it for a tshirt design. I've scanned the image and cleaned up all the speckles and dust. The only problem I'm still encountering is that the lines are not even. It was traced in sharpie before I scanned it so the lines are crisp and smooth, but not even.

As a preliminary to a digital painting I need to identify the overall mid tone (tonal value, not hue) of a color photograph and then reproduce that mid tone in the CS4 Color Picker (or somewhere) so that there is a choice of color tints that can be given to that particular (overall mid) tone. It will then be used to simulate an imprimatura transparent wash treatment over a white canvas (layer).
It should be easy I'm sure but I haven't been able to find a way to do it. I had hoped that Levels might be used to identify the mid tone, and then give it an identifier (?like an RGB number)which could be used in the Color Picker to choose a color with the mid tone value.

I want to blend and tone the center image (mostly the wood panels) so it looks somewhat compatible with the images on the side. I did one botched job of working on the file for a few hours, and didn't save it in my earlier stages, to my regret. It's all one image.

I am wondering how I can take a normal image and convert it to a retro style two tone image, with one darker color and one lighter (or white) color. Which one color or the other acting as shadows on the image. For examples, see ....

I just ran into an issue with Photshop Elements 9. I was working on a digital painting trying to use a flesh tone color and while using the brush tool, when it started coloring a much more saturated version of the color I wanted. When I used the pencil tool though the color was exactly how it was supposed to look. I don't like the jagged edge the lines created using the pencil tool make.

I am presently taking the The LAB Frontier course by Dan Margulis at Kelby Training and I am having difficulty with the Apply Image command working the way Dan said it would.
I am using CS3 on an PC.
Dan makes extensive use of this command in sharpening and other functions as follows:
Be in LAB color mode.
Start with a Background layer and duplicate.
Oversharpen Layer 1.
Have Layer 1 selected and go to Apply Image.
Apply the lower layer Lightness channel to the top layer reducing opacity to 50%.
CHANGE THE MODE TO DARKEN. This is my problem as Darken is not an available choice.
I have tried this on two different PCs with the same unfavorable result. why Darken mode is not available to me?

Recently, I've stumbled upon the "Apply Image" command via Images>Apply Images. (images must be same dimensions)
I found 2 arcane blending modes, "Add" & "Subtract". As usual, their explained in the help but still leaves me curious.
Add : adds the pixel values in two channels. Good way to combine nonoverlapping images in two channels.
Subtract: subtracts the pixel values in the source channel from the corresponding pixels in the target channel.
I can use the scale an offset to lighten and darken.
This "Apply Image" permanently modifies a image to your work. I don't like permanent because I'm always going back to tweak. Does anyone use this feature on a regular basis?

I'm using CS4 photoshop on my iMac 2008. When I try to apply image adjustments like 'posterize' or 'Brightness/Contrast' or 'Levels' to my image, I can adjust the settings in each dialog box, and I see the changes on my image because the 'Preview' box is checked. But when I click 'OK', the image reverts to its original and no changes are applied to the image.
I started out by importing a .jpg into photoshop. I've tried working on this .jpg, and I've also converted to Photoshop file format .psd, and still the same problem occurs. The original image had colour, but I converted it to grayscale. I also tried not converting to grayscale, and still the same problem. I am trying to make the image high contrast, with only black and white (no grey).
The same problem also occurs when I apply my adjustments on adjustment layers. Here I am able to modify each adjustment layer. The image changes and looks the way I want. But when I go to save the image, no matter what format I save as (.jpg, .psd, or .tif) the resulting image has none of the adjustments. It's still the original.

I am a beginner of Photoshop and I am really interested in Photoshop. Here is a big challenge I have met in the "Image>Apply Image..."
As it's shown in the picture, I use the Channel Alpha1 to alter the RGB Compound Channel and the Blending mode is ADD. And I can understand the fundamental of the above operation. Then question occur:
I don't get a full understanding of the Chek Box "Mask..." and I don't konw what it is used for. And what about some parameters "Image", "Channel", "Layser" about the "Mask..."

I have a 3ds model of a golf ball I purchased. It imports properly into my Photoshop CC. I haven't been able to figure out how to apply an image (my logo) to the surface of the golf ball. Also, the golf ball has a dimpled surface so I will want the image to follow the contours of the ball, as if it would look if the logo were painted onto a real golf ball.
EDIT: Also, I want to keep the golf ball as a 3d object so I can animate it in a scene.

I want to apply Burn to a flattened image, but without flattening. My image consists of several layers, and if I apply Burn to the image layer it doesn't work as well as when applied to the flattened image. But I don't want to flatten the image.
I have uploaded a test image here. It is a crop from a scanned Kodachrome using a Nikon Coolscan V ED which causes flare whenever highlights abut shadows. I can remove the flare fairly effectively on a flattened image with several Burn passes by using a brush size:75, Range: midtones, Exposure: 20%. But if I try it on the unflattened image layer, the results are not as good.

When I try to use the Apply Image Command to blend two images, the command only allows me to blend the target image with itself; that is, with two images open, the only image available to me as the source image is the target image.

I am trying to understand the difference between apply image and blending modes as I realize my grasp of it is weak.
Why blending the duplicate of an image with the original, with a given blending mode, does not give the same result as, Applying the duplicate of an image to the original with the same given blending mode in Apply Image?
What I have done in Photoshop, to be clearer :
1. one image ("background image"), duplicated it ("copy1") and set the blending mode ot linear light (for example). I get the result 1.
2. I selected "background image" and applied it in linear light (for this example), with Apply Image, to the "copy1" image. Result is different.

I have some photographs where the skin of the model's leg is not of uniform brightness. Without blurring it, I have tried the clone stamp but it is very difficult to not introduce further variations in brightness.
What is the best way to make skin uniform in brightness (actually, the same color!)?

I have made a foreground to background linear graduated screen in PS6 / windows xp and although the color selector shows black, foreground shows black, and background shows white, I get an almost rainbow like assortment of various color bands across the page. I have made the screen with the rectangle tool and also with a new fill layer and get the same results.
I try to change the color... red, green, pink just to see what happens, but nothing changes. It also prints the same way. I put a second new fill layer with a pattern fill to hide the effect, but the page still has faint bands of the wrong color running across it. Any ideas on this issue?

I go through the steps and while in the lens blur screen, it looks like it's working. Then I hit OK once I'm happy with my level of blur but then the blur doesn't apply. I've redone this a number of times, rebooted, etc. Has worked a couple times but mostly doesn't. Is this a bug?
