View 2 RepliesToday's challenge was to create an artificial reflection beneath an irregularly shaped object.
In the past I've been asked to add reflections where the reflection is simply a plane that cuts horizontally across the entire object (example 1), and where the object to be reflected is skewed (example 2) - both operations are pretty straight forward...
Example 3 is the object (a duvet) to which I had to add a floor reflection. I did come up with a solution, which I am reasonably happy with, but would love to see what methods other people use! I guess my attempt is OK because the texture and shape of the duvet is fairly forgiving!
Do you have a better method for these irregular floor reflections?
Example 4 is perhaps the trickiest I can imagine as the entire object is curved and the texture uniform so a bodge job will be very obvious!
Perhaps this can't easily be done in Xara - I imagine it could be painted in a bitmap package or rendered with a 3d package... or photographed with a reflection in the first place!

I tried to use Shadow/Highlight to get the whole pic. brighter so we can see the guy on the left but the whole right side of the image is so bright (because of the sunlight) it looks awful...

Does anybody know a technique where these light extremes could be evened out on the object?

As you can probably see the problem is with the brillant sunlight pouring through the windows. I have played around with the curves, but it just looks too dark and still white light through those windows. I was going to find a new background for each window cut out and replace and then play with the curves to bring the light down in the rest of the room.
In this photo, i want to remove the sunlight so as to make it more appropriate. Im using Photoshop CS5.

When I hit the "Light" button (or type light) then I get the text
Point/Spot/Targetpoint/Freespot/freeweB/Distant
Filedia is set to 1. Why can't I get the dialog box?
I'm using acad 2009.
image editing in general, so I'm not sure what how to really say what mean because I don't know the correct terms (If there are any).
The most I can do to clarify what I mean is offer two examples. The first is a picture I found:
[URL]
The sunlight hits her head at the very top right of the image and transitions from white (direct sunlight) to brown (indirect sunlight) to black (almost no sunlight). Also, the light directly touches her hands and legs (white) and then transitions to indirect (pink).
The second example I can offer is on this very forum. On the header, if you look at the larger GIMP dog balloon (I think they're dogs, anyway...) you can see the white oval on top of the purple-ish nose. If you look at the top of the nose, right before it transitions to the black outline, you see an almost reflection-like effect.
Is there a function in GIMP to do this? Or, at least, some sort of work-around?

I was able to use PE12 to create a turn my photo into black and white, where the buildings and such are black and the sky is white. At this point, I want to delete the sky portion of the photo and save the buildings portion (only) of the photo as an svg or a jpg file. I was able to save this as a jpg in PE12, but only with the white background in the file.

However, all the tutorials seem to either ignore tihs use or are based on earlier versions and I can't seem to follow them as 12 doesn't work quite the same way/have the same icons/menus. creating/editing animations, or tell me I'm using fundamentally the wrong software for animation and should just give up and buy something else.
