Oct 29, 2012When I have multiple pictures up, how do I keep two pictures from merging when I move one of the pictures to the side? I would like to turn this feature off.

View 6 RepliesI would like to crop heads of people in certain photos, and paste or align them with bodies in different images.
I've tried isolating the head or face using the Quick Selection Tool, and then Image/Crop, but I cannot get a clean edge; it's surrounded by an angular border, no matter what I do.
Is this impossible to do with curvy shaped image elements?
I'm working with PSE 9.
I got an idea for a tattoo that I am wanting to get and the idea is very vivid in my mind, the problem is that I cannot find any "flash" for what it is that I want. I asked a friend of mine for help as he is a graphic artist, and he suggested I get familiar with Photoshop, so here I am. Here is somewhat of a graphical description of what I am attempting to do...
What I am going for is 3 seperate eagles all merged together (or layered on top of each other) in order to create one single piece for my back. The first eagle will create the center of the design with the second eagle above it and to the left a bit with the third eagle to the back of the first one and below the second to make it all one piece.
What I need to know is what would be the best way for a beginner to start doing all this? I am not a freeloader and am not at all intimidated by doing things myself, just a kick in the right direction should suffice. Thank you all in advance for your support. I know that I need to first get all three images onto the same pallet and extract the heads only (white feathers) from the first two images then merge them all together somehow.
I do a lot of image editing, example cutting out pictures of a persons's head and place it on a picture w/c contain a body such as a king, princess, soldeirs etc. I often cut out pictures from digital shots and put them on a normal .jpg file to merge them. The issue is that the color profiles/brightness/contrass of the 2 pictures are not the same so it's very clear that they are edited.
I tried them all, under "Image-Adjust" then changing the image's hue/saturation, color balace, brightness/contrast however most of my works are still very noticeable that it's edited. only a handful of few shots comes out really blended that well.
I have 2 images, one which is a canvas I have created within Photoshop to a certain size and the other is a JPEG I have shot on a SLR.
I want to mount the JPEG onto the canvas (which are both currently saved as 2 seperate documents as JPEG's) and then save this as one whole document...
I've managed to make two different backups and none of them have got all of my photos, are there any ways two merge them?
I'm considering writing one of them over the other, but I'm not sure what happens. One of the other solutions I can come up with is to upload the pictures to Revel, delelig all photos, import the other backup and try to sync with revel again. Will this work?
To make it extra complicated, I want to move all my pictures to a new system.
Each time the program saves a file & backs it up it appears to assign to each picture a unique number that isn't on your original picture. This must mean that each picture is somehow linked to the catalog file. Is this correct?
If this is so does this unique number stay with that photo through every version of PSE?
If this number stays unchanged (providing you haven't modified the photo) is the following possible?
I have found an earlier hard drive that has some partial & complete backups from earlier versions of PSE. I know that some but not all pictures on these backups are duplicates of my current catalog & some aren't. What would happen if I just tried to past the older backups into the newer catalog? Would Windows 7 64, bit accept the data but warn you the some pictures are duplicates & allow you to just paste in the pictures that aren't?
Is there any better way to get these older pictures into the current catalog?
I want to merge multiple images using PS Elements Editor/Organiser for Mac - when I click 'expert', then 'enhance' then 'photomerge' then 'Panorama' as suggested in 'Help' I get this error window.

But I can't see how you maerge the two?In Pshop you simply select it all then copy and paste and you have 2 images in seperate layers, but Elements doens't work like that.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have six photos which are aligned and distributed equally and linked so they move as one. I want to center this group on the page but as soon as the background layer is selected, each photo piles onto each other with a mind of its own. Tried everything I know (which isn't really very much). It will work if I merge the group, but I don't want to do that.. I am using Elements 12 with Windows 8.1.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI know this was possible in CS3 but since CS4 I think it has been deleted. I'm Struggling with the following:
- Let's say I have 5 elements that are NOT overlapping. I know that it was in possible in CS3 to "add" these together so that you'd have 1 element that was completely editable. You could for instance put an object on top of the elements > use the pathfinder to delete a part, and all previous 5 elements would be edited (because now it was 1 element).
- If I try this by doing this the same way as I used to in CS5, this doesn't work anymore. No matter how hard I try to join the non overlapping elements it doesn't work in CS5. If I do the exact same thing as described above I'll be left with the same 5 elements and the deletion will only happen in 1 element.
Was this something that was altered in CS4? And if so, how do I do it now?
I have set up one new album in Organizer, but cannot add pictures. The Import button is greyed out, and I can find nothing in the toolbars that is not also greyed out.

I have taken pictures before in RAW, but all of the sudden the program is unable to open such pictures. I have added light room 5 but I want to take advantage of the layer sistem on elements.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have been emailing my pictures for quite some time. I would select a picture right click the mouse and open the picture with Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 Then I would enhance the picture and resize the picture to 950-733 pixels. I would then go to file and put "Save As" when the prompt came up I would put in example bus-1 and hit ok I would go up top and close back to my pictures. When I would write an email and attach the picture I could identify it as bus-1 and it would be resized to 950--733 pixels for emailing. But now when I Save as all of the pictures come up in that file and I cannot find Bus-1. It must have changed and I don't know why.
