Photoshop Elements :: Stops Responding When Creating 11x8.5 Collage
Jul 7, 2013
I've been using Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 for a couple of months to create 11x8.5 photo collage's as part of my digital scrapbook. Yesterday, when I tried to create a new collage the program stopped responding and forced me to close it. It will only do this with an 11x8.5, it's not a problem for any other size, unfortunately the rest of my pages are 11x8.5 so I really need to be able to use this size!
As soon as I try to make a photo collage in elements 11 the progrem terminates.I use a PB PC with i7 processor and win 7. Enough memory and running the program from an solid state drive (SSD)
When my PSE10 stops responding, as it frequently does, it does not pay to wait. Even if it finally responds, I have to shut down my computer before I can access the app and begin work again.
I tried to create a collage from 3 images. I choose this three images and select the format. After that I click Ok, then PSE will crash. I repeat this a few times by using other formats, but still this wont work.
I am using Microsoft Windows 8 and Photoshop Elements 11.
How can I create a 16"x24" photo collage in PSE8 with 5 photos? I want 1 photo to be the main focal point and to be the largest and then 2 photos medium size and 2 photos smaller.
I have tried to create a Photo Collage in PSE 11 but everytime I do, the program closes on me. I have tried in both Organiser and Editor.
It starts off OK and comes up with the sizes. I choose 297 x 210, the landscape option, which is not the default and the only other option is Basic layout - no other options available.
I then hit OK and the screen comes up with Adobe PSE11 has stopped working. Check online for a solution to the program or Close the program. I have tried to check online but it just closes anyway.
I would like to create a wallpaper in 2560x1440px. When I try to make a photo collage there are only 3 different sizes I can choose. How can I add a custom size?
System is Windows xp pro 32 bit with 3GB ram. Cannot save or even close out photoshop. Need to end task and start over again. Sometimes documant will be recovered sometimes not.
First of all, let me say that I am very enthused with the changes in CS4. I feel that this is the best update to PhotoShop that I have seen, and I am a user since version 3.0.
The problem that I see, ocassionally, is that PhotoShop becomes non-responsive for a long period ie: 1-2 minutes. I have experienced this on both my desktop (64 bit Vista Ultimate and 64 bit CS4) and my laptop (32 bit Vista Ultimate). During this time the disk drive is continuously active as though it is swapping the file to disk. The file size, however, is not large enough to cause this and the utilization factor is shown as well below 100%. After a period of time the disk drive stops and CS4 becomes responsive again.
The system is an AMD dual core processor with 6GB RAM on the desktop and 2GB RAM on the laptop. Both systems use SATA hard drives. The CS4 scratch disc is a separate dedicated drive on the desktop. Both systems use Nvidia video and open GL is working fine on both computers. Both computers have the latest Nvidia drivers. Since there are no open GL problems, I assume that the video drivers are okay. As I have said, I see this problem on both my laptop and my desktop.
I have AutoCAD LT 2011 running on Windows 7 64. I'm using it since long time.
Two weeks ago I started having this problem: as soon as I select any command from the File menu that should open a dialog (Open... Save As... Import...) the program freezes and I see (not responding) in the upper left title bar.
No way to go on. The only solution is to close the program.
Reinstallation from scratch included. System recovery to factory image included. No solution.
I am looking to create a collage made from 100 photos (all taken high res) to be printed large, approx 120cm x 50cm. To be able to print this size I need to keep the high resolution and hence looking for a large file output.
Working in photopaint . . . all goes well until I try to save or close the file. Then it stops responding. When I try to close CorelDraw, it says that I cannot close it while I have the photo open in Photopaint. However, Photopaint is no longer running. This is new problem since I installed Patch 3.
I'm running Windows 7 64bit on a relatively high end PC: 2.65 gigahertz Intel Core i7 920, 6 GB ram, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 295 [Display adapter] (2x) in SLI, etc...
So when I attempt to open eps file, it simply hangs, and eventually says NOT RESPONDING. As I type this I've been attempting to open a file for over 30 minutes. I've tried rebooting to no avail.
Since upgrading the server in our office Autocad 2013 is having trouble opening files. When I attempt to open a file the progress bar gets to about 85%, a "not responding" message comes up for about 15-20 seconds, and then the file opens. Two workstations in the office have AutoCAD 2013, one has 8GB RAM and Windows 7 64 bit, the other has 16GB of RAM and also a WIndows 7 64 bit OS. Neither PC had issues opening files before the new server went in, and neither PC is having problems with any other network program. Is there somewhere within the program or in Autocad's registry entries that might still be pointing to the old server? I have tried the following, Firewall has been turned off, VP has been disabled, repair has been run on the program (through programs and features in the control panel). I have email support through Autocad and sent them an email this morning, but have yet to receive a response.
I was using Roto Brush for a while today and everything was working as expected. I Roto Brushed about 20 frames, just doing touchups where necessary. However, after a while, Roto Brush just stopped responding to new strokes. I could not add or remove from the mask. I've tried flushing the RAM and then restarting AE but the problem persists.
I'm using After Effects CC on Windows 7 64-bit with 16GB of RAM.
I made a screen cast to show the problem. You'll see me painting to add and remove from the mask on a couple of frames. Roto Brush looks like it's going to do something but then nothing changes in the mask.URL....
I want to create a collage image with numerous large photos, each in it's own layer during editing. In order to fit, all the images need to be scaled down to varying degrees, but when I'm starting out, I'm not sure what scale each image will need to be. With the default, if I shrink them too much then they get pixellated when I try to enlarge them again. Is there a way of enabling gimp to scale each image, but drop this version and reuse the original data on future scale operations (ie a "lossless" scaling operation)?
Currently I'm having to essentially create the collage twice - first time various shrink and expands til all images fit together, then start again but just rescale once to the required size.
I presume I'm correct in thinking there's no record function in GIMP yet, so I can't record my actions to GIMP then just delete redundant steps and replay...
I have a small business doing canvas stretch pictures. A client of mine has asked me to do a collage of 27 photos and I used Shape Collage to do so. She wanted a collage with all the photos in a regulated format. That is Avg.Angle zero degrees, Max. Angle zero degrees, Offset X zero and Offset Y zero. After creating the collage I saved it as a PSd file. So Far So good. I then opened Gimp 2.8.4 and was quite confused as the latest program appearance is nothing like the tutorials and images on the net. However I was able to open the image of the collage by importing the psd file. I was also able to edit the photos and reposition them according to her wishes. I then saved the file as a psd. She wanted to see a jpeg copy of the collage as she does not have photoshop on her pc. In order to show her I had to flatten the psd and then save it in photoshop to a jpeg format. She now wants me to add one more photo to the existing collage.
I'd like to create some simple collages but cannot afford the full-blown Photoshop right now. Will Elements allow me to create collages? If so, is there anything that I won't be able to do that I could do (as it relates to collage work) with the full edition?
Been a while since I've gotten to play with PS. But I just got PSCS2 and wanted to play with it. And I remembered making a Euro Collage in my PS class (lol, was named Web Graphics using Photoshop 7.0) Anyway, I have lost all my notes and cannot remember what elements I need for a Euro Collage. I do remember a few things, but not everything. I have looked on the web but they don't say what elements comprise a Euro Collage. Or if anyone knows a link I could follow, I'd greatly appreciate it.
I am looking for instructions (tutorial) on how to do a photo collage in photoshop 10. I keep seeing ways to do it in ps11 even though I'm working on 10.
Photo Colage does not open! when selected the following window appears and lockes up the programme. I am running windows 7 Professional with 8gb ram, i5 cpu.
