View 6 Replies View RelatedI figured out how to use the layers option to fade an image into white for a Blackberry theme I'm making. After getting the hang of that, I figured I could try the same thing with a different image. But instead of opening up both images in different colors, both show up as the color of the first image. Both images are png files, the same file format that I used the first set of images for. I have not changed the size nor made anything transparent.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a clipart that a friend drew for me that is black and white. I scanned it, added to it and saved it as a .psd. I used a reduced size clipart to add some color. I than decided to add color to the full sized clipart using the bucket tool. The color picker will not allow me to choose any color other than blacks, grays, or white. It worked fine with the first clipart but nothing after. I tried in Elements 6 and just purchased Elements 12 hoping that would be the ticket.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen attempting to add text to a photo, the typed text is not visible on the layer in the "Layers Box" until exiting the Text Tool.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI think I may have made a big error. While adding text and applying (experimenting) various "Effects" with the text, I used the garbage can icon to remove the "Effect", thinking it is going to remove the 'Effect" from the text, until I realized I had to remove the "Effect" with the edit button, not the garbage can. Have I now permanently removed the various "Effects" permanently or just off the screen? How do I regain them back onto the menu column? How many "Effects" should be visible in order to have the complete set? This was my first experiment with the lettering effects and hope I haven't lost them forever.

I am trying to reduce the Opacity of some white text so that it looks faded. However I want the background that this appears on to be black. The problem is that it changes to grey the lower the Opacity.
I understand that this is because of the black background but can not think how to get around the problem.

View 12 Replies View Relatedhow I can take an image, and have it only showing in a text.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a photo that I'd like to add text to. The text is very simple, and I would like it in the upper left corner of the image. If someone could be so kind as to maybe work the image if they were so inclined, and then maybe explain how it was done.
I've tried simply using the text tool, but for starters, the text isn't displayed properly. For example, when I typed an "F," the displayed text was a, "?." Sounds like a font issue, I tried all the fonts, they all display a "?."
Second, I know I need to make a new layer for the text to be added to the image, but I'm not sure how to go about doing this. I'm not sure what kind of layer to open for it, and I'm not sure how to blend the layers once I do. I also want the beginning letter to be one font, and the following three to be another. For example, the beginning letter to be a cursive lowercase, large font "f," while the other letters are arial font lowercase, smaller font, "ine." With the period included in the text. This isn't what I want the text to read, but it should help you guys that choose to help come up with something.
On a side note, I'd love to take those trees out of the pic. Would you guys recommend matching the color of the sky and brushing over, or is there another way that might be better. I'd like this pic to be as clean as possible.

Ubiquitous Info: Adobe CS6 PS v13.0.1 x32 extended on a Win XP sp3 OS
I am trying to add a simple text layer to some relatively small JPEG files - each file is only about 3 or 4 MB in size before any editing or additions are made to the files. I am using P-shop CS2 on a PC with Windows XP SP2.When I add a few lines of simple text (with no special effects) to any of these files and attempt to save the edited file as a .TIFF or .PSD file with the text as its own layer in the file - the resulting .TIFF or .PSD file is a 30 or 35 MB file which is hard to work with because of its size. These files have only two layers in them - the text layer and the base image. It just does not seem logical that a simple text layer would make a file increase in size by 10 times.
I would like to try to save the edited image files as .TIFF or .PSD so that I can go back and make future edits to the text layer.I have tried to save the edited file with the text layer as a .zip file but these files are also still very large - 20 MB or so.Maybe I have some basic file settings wrong that are making the files so large? Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can add a simple text layer to a relatively small image file, save it as a .TIFF or .PSD file and keep the resulting file size manageable?
I cannot add text. I followed element 10 chapter 12 instructions but cannot get past first 4 steps. When I try to commit text as per step 5 nothing appens.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI opened Elements editor today, and found I could no longer add any text to a new image.
I start Elements, go to the editor, create a new image, then add text, and I cannot see the text at all. Things I have checked:
Various fonts
Various sizes
Various colors
Various opacities
Anti-alias on and off
Various styles (including none)
I've tried horizontal and vertical text
I've tried setting the background to various colors
Zoom level seems to make no difference
Doesn't matter if I create the new image with white or transparent background
When I try the Horizontal Mask tool, I get a message "No pixels were selected"
The layer names contain the text I typed into the image.
