how to achieve this sort of look with a Canon DSLR and photoshop..There seems to be a lack of complete black and white in either of the photos. i see the discoloration and everything, i just need to know what i can do to achieve this sort of effect.
For a recent project of mine I need to recreate this effect I found on a vintage nike t-shirt. I love this style, not sure what exactly it is? Perhaps inspired by Ettore Sottsass and his "memphis" design movement.
ive been racking my brains trying to this effect in the picture below. I trying getting my image, using find edges> then masking and painting and its not coming out this way.
Any documents opened in Photoshop have a yellow tint to them. Even new blank documents have a sick yellow overtone.
All other Adobe products including bridge display documents correctly, and all menus/panels in PS are shown correctly. The color problem is strictly within documents in Photoshop.
I've attempted to change all the color settings (RGB modes, Conversion Options, etc.) in several documents with no change. I've also closed Photoshop, located my .ICC and .ICM files in "program files/common files/adobe/color/", renamed the "Profiles" and "MPProfiles" directories and restarted Photoshop. Did not change.
I'm using ACER and LG monitors, which both seem to display everything else properly but both are showing the yellow tint on the PS docs, although the ACER (being a brighter monitor) shows more yellow than the LG does.
I'm using Bridge 5.0.1.23 x64 via Photoshop CS6. I'm processing some low-light nighttime photos that require me to boost the "shadows" slider most of the way to the right to get the look I need. I've noticed that the previews in Bridge look pixelated and purple in all of the shadow areas.
First time poster here. I have been trying hard to reproduce a vintage color effect, but I haven't received the results that I wanted. Any suggestions?
Here are some of the photos that I've been using as a reference and trying to reproduce the effect:
I've tried many different combinations of selective color black/black, adjusting the lower end red/blue in curves, and desaturations. I have come close but it's just not exactly the same. Any tips?
I was able to download a vintage action several years ago that would give the pictures a vintage look but the action seems to have fallen apart and has some missing pieces such as fibers etc. Anyone know if there are any new ones around ?
to create a more vintage look through photoshop. I am trying to create a look like WWII aircraft nose art, and old photos of celebrites like some early color photos of Marilyn Monroe.
Any t-shirt designers in the house? I'm trying to design a couple of graphics for t-shirts in Photoshop and want to give the artwork that old, vintage, washed look. Can someone share some of these tricks with me.
Does anyone know how to get this old vintage look? It seems the saturation is down and there is a bit of yellow added to the image maybe? I'm not quite sure, but I really like it. Any thoughts?
I have loads of vintage graphics but many of them have a dirty looking background...the white or cream colored background looks greyed or has a browned look. I would like to know if there is any way to remove this discoloration and get the background back to a normal color.
The picture below is an example of how the backgbround color has become discolored. How to get rid of that ugly background color? I have tried using the paint bucket but often that tends to also fill in areas you don't want to lose.
I am creating colage images in Photoshop CS4. I sometimes use scanned vintage daguerreotypes or other small snapshots. They are often small sized at 3.5" x 4.5" or 4.25" x 5.5". My Epson 835 scanner can scan in at 300, 400, up to 800 dpi. If I intend to print these scans at 8x10, 11x14 or a larger size within the overall collage, should I scan in at the highest dpi allowed by my scanner? Does this make a real difference after 300 in resolution/clarity?
Also, Does Photoshop CS4, in the enlarging process, as I bring the smaller image into my composite and stretch size it up with (T) tool, end up just making "junk pixels" using "Bicubic" or "Bicubic smoother" in the printing from flattened PS file, even tho I scanned in at a high dpi? scan in at best dpi so that the image won't be pixelated, lose resolution as it is used larger inside the final composite collage.
All of the colors when I use brushes always appearance very faded. It takes a couple of layers and 're-clicking' too get the dark color I'm looking for. I've tried re-installing and re-setting default's, but it hasn't seemed to work or I'm doing it wrong. I was wondering if there was a way I could change the default. This is for CS3 Beta BTW.
im trying to make a fading grid i cant think of a way to do this is there any way to do this? i want to lines to start fading out on the right hand side of the image.
I want to do a montage of a load of portraits (which i've cropped from other pics) which are all faded and merged together in a circle and I then want to put a logo on top of it.
I'm trying to import a jpg from PS into Flash. When I do, the jpg is washed out looking. The save preview in PS looks great, but when I open the jps in any other program, it looks washed out. Any ideas?
I have a scanned image. As you can see there is a line that above it the color has faded. IS there a technique / command(s) to restore the faded colors to the ones below the line?
When printing any document through Photoshop CS5, it's printing at about 25% opacity. If we open the file in Preview or Word, it prints just fine! What do I need to change to get PS printing correctly again?
This all started when we downloaded a template offline. My co-worker designed within the template and when she went to print, it was faded. I tried printing a photo from my computer to the same printer quick to troubleshoot what the error might be (low ink, etc...) and my photo printed 100% ok. I then opened the file she designed, tried printing it and it was faded. I then tried printing the photo that printed earlier fine and now it and everything else I print is faded! What in the world changed? We've tried restarting both our machines, restarted PS, deleted and reinstalled the print drivers, etc... But to no avail.
We're printing to just a simple desktop printer, a Canon MP210.
I want the edges of a picture to fade into the background. I know I can use the erase tool to obtain this effect. A friend of mine showed me a few years back a different and somewhat easier/quicker way. She showed me to use the rectangle/elliptical tool and select the area you want to show. Then select inverse. After that use the feather option to round the edges/amount of feathering. My question is what would be the next step? I know there is something else that needs to be done to actually fade the border, but I can't for the life of me remember.
