Photoshop Elements :: Changing Background Get Rid Of Outline
Jan 9, 2014
I'm changing the background color of some sculpture pics from white to black. I prefer to change lighting/color as opposed to removing/replacing background. Looks more natural for my needs. And it's quicker...But I can't seem to get my edges around sculpture perfect. (or even close) I always get a thin outline (halo?) around the object. I use all of the refine edge tools, but still not great. I want to keep a crisp edge between background and object, so I don't want to feather...I'm using elements 11.Â

I need to soften the outline of a girl in a photo without changing the background. I have tried the Modify Edges tool in the selections menu, but the results of the feathering command do not show up on the photo.Â

What is the best way to change the background completely? The people in the foreground are OK but there is quite a flash glare on the wall directly behind the subjects.

I was teaching an Elements class today where participants had varying laptops (Windows or Mac) all with either Elements 9 or 10 installed. I was showing people how to right/click (Mac: control/click) on the default gray color and change it to black. About half of the participants didn't get this option when following my directions. I went to several laptops and tried it myself with no pop-up window offering "gray, black or custom".

I used the magic extrator to isolate my subject in a high resolution picture (3000x4000 pixels). Then I put it on a background that I got off the Internet. It looked great on the screen, but when I went to print it at a photo store, the resolution was so low that I couldn't use the picture. I also don't know how to add a background any other way. Have others had the resolution of the picture degenerate to this point when it was put on a background?

I was wondering if there was a graceful way to change a thick stroke or outline in PS CS6? Normally I would be lazy and just use the paint bucket tool, but since this is for a higher profile client than I am used to, and it is a for print project (I normally do web projects) the quality is just not good enough. The lines I want to change are the yellow outlines of the yellow hand in the following logo:
Â
Currently, the best approach I can think of is going back into AI and changing the outlines and strokes there, however that is going to be a lot of work because of the way in which different objects overlay each other means a lot of slicing, cutting, and moving things around. Is there an easier way to do this in PS?

I was wondering how to outline a shape in a picture and then make the rest of the picture white.
I've included 2 pictures: This one is an example of what I want to do:
This one is the picture that I want to edit (Outline the shoes in the picture and then make the rest of the picture white): It seems like this can't be too hard but I'm really bad at Photoshop.

What I am trying to do is check if a shape does not match a known set of values. If it does not it will run code where the "If msgbox" is at. What I have works if my line or object has a Cyan outline. The issue I am having is when it is checking a line that is any other color that doesn't have Cyan = 100, it errors out.
Below is what I am trying to use.
Sub Start()       Dim s As Shape       Dim sr As ShapeRange                    ' ActivePage.Shapes.All.CreateSelection       Set sr = ActiveSelectionRange                     For Each s In sr           If s.Type = cdrTextShape Then GoTo s_A           If s.Outline.Color.CMYKCyan = 100 Then GoTo s_A                                If MsgBox("dude", vbOKCancel) = vbCancel Then GoTo s_B           s_A:   Next ss_B:End Sub

I produce one outlined and filled alphabet letter per A4 page to create a sign for a shop window, changing the colours every three months. I use Outline Object for the outline. Is there a method by which the outline colour of a previous letter can be changed or must I recreate the letter if I require a different outline colour?

I have traced this image from a Jpeg into a Vector to colour but how can I change the black out lines into other colours. When I right click the mouse with an outline selected the colour appears around the line but there is still a fine black line in the centre of it. I want to change the actual outline into another colour

how a png image sometimes has a checkerboard background instead of a dull white square background?Those png's are cool to import into Xara and have a smooth outline.
why is it when i EXPORT a png with the checkerboard background the outline looks like an 8 bit nintendo outline when placed on a website? These type of pngs with the checkerboard background are meant to be viewed as having no background...which actually works for me but the outline looks horrible.
what do i need to do to fix that outline issue? Is there some sort of setting that i have to tweak?

I remember seeing a post about a plugin which allows you to remove the background from an image...
Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of the plugin....
Or if you can point me to a Tutorial that deals specifically with removing a background colour from a complicated image i.e. an image with a complicated outline...

AI 6. Here is what I have. A background shape that is a gradient. Type on top of the shape. Chiller font. I need to punch a hole into the background in the shape of the font. I created outline with the font. Ungrouped the outlines. I go to pathfinder and select exclude. My gradient which was red to black is now black only. It excluded the font, (punched the hole) but ruined my gradient because the gradient no longer exist. Just black.
Â
The reason I need to exclude the font is because it does not print well. I'm using cmyk doc color mode. But the white font and the reddish background where the font is located kind of blend making the font kind of hard to read. I figured punching a hole in the shape of the fonts would solve that problem.

I have 2 layers and I want to mask one through the other. I've attached a png showing what I want. I tried to attach an .xcf file, but it won't do it, which seems strange for a gimp forum. Anyway, one layer is the text (black outline) and one layer is a colorful background. In the xcf, the background layer is entirely filled with the colorful stuff, but I want it to only show through the interior of the letters (as shown in the png).

If I was to film a movie recorded in front of a blue or green screen, is there an easy way I can replace the blue/green screen with a background of my choice like they would in films like Star Wars?
Also, if you had a camera set up on a tripod and filmed someone moving around, is there a way of removing the background IF it is the same as it was in the layer before / int eh previous frame in ImageReady?

I have a photo of a car taken in a photo studio, the background is completely white and the vehicle has cast some shadows around all edges.
What is the best technique to remove the car from the image and put it in a more pleasing background such as driveway in a country mansion.

I'm on a Mac 10.8.2 w/ CS6 13.0.
This is one of the tutorials that seems very straight forward(except for a couple typo's) but when I try it, I'm told the file could not be copied to clipboard because it's too large...however it does appear to paste the car over the bottom photo? Or did it?
"First open one of the shots in PhotoShop and select the entire image by pressing Ctrl-A, then cut or copy the image into the clipboard (Ctrl-X or Ctrl-C, either will do the trick), now close this image ... without saving ! Very important, we don't want to change the original image file, you never know you might need it again in the future.
Now create a new document (Ctrl-N) and just click 'OK', no need to change any of the settings, they are set to the content of the clipboard anyway so I can leave them 'as is'. Once the blank document is there hit the Ctrl-V to paste the first image into place. Time to open the second exposure, again Ctrl-A to select the entire shot, cut or copy the image (Ctrl-X or Ctrl-C) and close this file again (Ctrl-W)... do NOT safe the changes to keep the original image intact !
With this second image closed again I am automatically returned to my new document that already contains my first exposure, just hit Ctrl-C to paste the second exposure on top of this one and I'm halfway done already. The order of these shots isn't really that important, you will be exposing parts of one shot into the second one, which one lies below doesn't matter anyway."
Â
Let's say the screen shot below is workable, if not I'll do it the correct way BUT how do I make the brillant layer masking work from here. Everything I've seen says to select the mask, then select the brush, then type of brush, make sure white is the foreground and black is background and just paint. When I paint nothing happens to my images?
Â
Then I've tried going to File>Scripts>Import as Stacks and this seems to bring them in but w/ transparent layers underneath,

I have a portrait that has a very green solid background. I would like to change this color to something a little more easy on the eye- I have tried all the tutorials that refer to this action, but have not managed yet to accomplish this task..I thought maybe someone here could help ... I am a very new user to photoshop, and will appreciate very much if anyone here can simplify this for me. I have versions 6 and have downloaded the free trial 7.0

how do you take this green tint off? notice the difference in color options from the above (only green) as opposed to the one below (full)
I want the green tint taken off so the pic can look like this (original) in photoshop, the green background has all the characteristics of the white-default background...when i click the overlapping default foreground and background colors toolbar the green background doesn't change
the only option i have is to choose from a green color spectrum, not a full color spectrum...
Tried adjusting levels and auto levels,

changing the color of the background isn't too hard, but if you have for example a drawing (which is black on white). How can you smoothly change one of the colors to another?
For example
all black > blue
grey > light blue
light grey > lighter blue

to replace the background colour to another colour in this jpg file.
Everytime I select with the magic wand, the picture is not selected correctly. I am not sure what tolerance level to use. Whether Anti-aliased and Contiguous checkboxes should be checked or not.

I have about 200 pictures that have a white background that I need to change to blue. Normally I would use the wand, crop it with the pen or do a color selection. The only one that is working is the pen but it is taken way to long and was hoping someone would know on a better faster way to change the white background to blue and possibly even making it a action so it wouldn't take that long as like I said I have 200 that I need to do.

Is there a way to change the background layer colour once you've started a document?
When I first created my document (in PS CS2, if that makes a difference) it automatically set my background colour as sepia, instead of white.
I'm now working on a painting and just realised that I can't use white; PS is calling this sepia colour white, and I can't get anything lighter.
Is there a way to fix this? I've done it on a few pictures now and I don't want to have to start everything over.
I've just tried making a new document with a white background layer and the same thing still happens! What is this?! I'm sure this can't be right! I'm on some sort of sepia scale; I can't even do grays. *desperate*
