I am trying to make some images for a new application. Unfortunately, i am a horrible graphics designer The images are circles with a symbol or letter inside.
They look fine in photoshop, yet when i put them up on the site, they are transparent gifs, most of the images get jaggy.
I am having issue with smoothing my GIF images so that they do not display as jagged in my flash movies.
I am developing them in freehand and then web preping them in photoshop by maximising the colours to ensure high quality display - not worried about movie size right now (i just want to find the fine end of the graphic spectrum).
I am applying the following settings on saving for web: GIF selective, diffusion 256 colours and so on, following all the correct properties and my images (particularily lines and edges) are coming out jagged and pixelated. I have tried gaussian blur but this kills my image clarity and then they just look too soft.
I'm created a web page with a drag java script where people can move pictures with there mouse. I uploaded all the pictures to my picture hoster, put all the code in...and I've noticed that theres the matte around when the pictures got moved over another picture. so i went back into ps and put the matte to none..and it seemed to fix the problem until the pictures turned out all choppy.
is there any way to get the transparent gif with non choppy edges and without matte?
I've been searching the web and trying out numerous things is photoshop, but it just seems impossible.
is ps the right program to use? I tried paintshop pro...but it just seems more complicated than ps.
I am trying to make a transparent gif; basically I want white text on a transparent background. I have Photoshop and Illustrator when I make the image everything looks fine than I save for web and if you put the gif in front of a color (in HTML/IE) the text edges are blocky, it sort of looks like it is a low Res. however it is a normal res. like 72 or 96. The other interesting part is that if I save for web with a colored background it looks fine.

In PS 5.5, you select which colors to make transparent through File > Export > GIF-95 (or something like that).
For the life of me, I can't find an option in PS 6 to select transparent colors.
In PS 5.5 to make a transparent GIF, you selected the color you wanted transparent from the palette of colors in the specific image. But I don't see how that's possible with the Save For Web in PS 6. Is it?
Thing is, what I need to do is mask around parts of the image, and than make the mask color transparent.
I've been trying to create a banner that streches using transparent gifs on top of a loaded jpeg background. The gif looks perfect when i save it on photoshop but as soon as i upload it on to the jpeg i get a noisey white line around the outline of the giff, does anyone know how i can minimise or erase this?

I am creating a box with a single color in it w/ the opacity of 30% but when I save it as a gif file, it makes it completely opaque. I would like to save it as a gif but still making it somewhat transparent.Is this only possible with PNG files?

I tried "save for web" gif and also "save as" png, the png file comes in cleaner around the edges but looks distorted when I test the movie. am I exporting them out of photoshop the wrong way...
can anyone tell me the best way to import these files?
I am creating an image in PS and I have a transparent gif that is seperate and I want to place that trans. gif on top of the image I am making.
when I copy and paste the gif on top, it pastes the gif with a white background.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to be able to save an image with a transparent background which will appear ontop of different colored backgrounds. No matter what I do, I can't get rid of the nasty white fringe/speckles around the image. I've tried everything possible and I've only been able to reduce it.
I've played with different image settings, I've removed the Matte before saving, I've mapped different colors for transparency, etc.
I have used the Magic Wand for a couple of years, taking out backgrounds etc to create transparent GIFs.Now when I use it, the edges of whatever I have cut out are always jagged.
Â
I have anti-aliasing checked at the top, and haven't changed anything that I know of.It seems to get worse when the image is resized and made smaller also.

1. How do I create the shape without the jaggies. If you look close you'll see some of the shapes are straight and others are jaggy. can someone tell me how to get smooth shapes consistenly.
2. I cannot for the life of me get the right female arm straight. can someone help me get her arm proportioned correctly.
I am trying to create a nav bar which has diagonal edges. Trouble is, every time I draw a diagonal line all I get is jaggies, how do I draw a diagonal that appear perfectly straight without any jagged edges.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make a logo. Circular logo with an inner ring maybe 4 px wide and 15 px inside the rim of the outer circle.
Basically I want a blue circle with a yellow inside ring. What's the best way of doing this? The only thing i can think of is: creating a blue circle marquee, and then another (trying to estimate a new circle size and change the color) that is yellow, and then making another smaller blue circle inside the new one. That's just ugly.
I tried the edit/stroke but that just gave me a stroke around the outer circle; it didn't put a ring inside the circle 15 px down.
Also I tried to contract the original circle by selecting it, then Modify/contract. That's got me a selected ring, inside the circle. Now how in the world do I make that little ring yellow? It just remains selected and I can't seem to find a way to color it.
I'm noticing Jaggies in a rendering done with Image Based Light at the edges of bright reflections. Obviously I'd rather not have such jaggies.
Â
I have the feeling that the problem is because the light is so bright that the rendering is ending up with a clipped result at edges between extreme bright and dark.

How should i do to fix them?
View 5 Replies View RelatedHow would I go about to fix this "jittery" brush in gimp? [URL] ......
This is simply a 1 pixel paintbrush with the normal brush (circular one with a little bit of smoothing).
I created vector art in Illustrator, then saved the file as an .ai file.
Â
Afterward, I chose "Save for Web," and exported the file as a .png file.
Â
I placed the .png file at 100 percent into a Dreamweaver file.
Â
The result is a file with jagged edges. How do I save the file to preserve the smooth vector look of the original file?
I have recently upgraded to a HiDef video camera and at first was recording at 1080i (interlaced) and now changed to record at 1080p (progressive).
I have noticed when viewing (on my PC) some of the clips I recorded that there are 'jagggies' along the edges of objects.
I have found that this is a result of 'interlace' and possibly panning too fast. My camera displays a warning "camera is panning too fast" if in fact I do pan too fast but this was not the case as when recording with panning I usually pan so slowly that I often have to increase playback speed during editing AND also the clips I viewed were on people walking in the same direct at the camera, hardly panning too fast. With that said I am thinking (and hoping) that it was a result of using 1080i (interlaced).
This begs the question - Can shutter speed have an effect. The reason for the question is that I have noticed that my new camera (seems to) automatically sets the shutter speed faster and leave the aperture wide when there is a lot of light (I can see that by changing to MANUAL mode and noting the aperture and shutter speed.
If this is the case then should try using a NEUTRAL DENSITY filter to force the camera to use a slower shutter speed? I used to have to do this with my old MiniDV camera to prevent overexposure in brightly lit scenes (the shutter speed never seemed to change without me manually doing so).
I,ve got an old photo of the ship my dad sailed in during WWII and i'm trying to fix it up a bit. here is the original and a small copy of what I have done so far.
View 9 Replies View RelatedMy mother has a picture of herself with singer Ed Ames that was taken quite a long time ago. The problem is, the lighting was horrible at the airport they were at and the picture turned out pretty bad. I'm no expert in Photoshop, but I do know my way around it pretty well- the problem is I don't know if there is any hope to bring out features in Ed's face.
This picture might be a lost cause, but if any of you think you know how to make the picture better,
I have attached a section of a picture that I am currently working on. I have been trying to get rid of some green and red pixels that are all over the picture. You can better see them in the hair and neck area.
The original file has a decent size and is 300dpi.
I have been trying to use the clone tool, paint over the hair but it just doesn´t look right.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI just scanned a transparency in my EPSON 2450. It came out with some curves like a rainbow, I don't know how it is called. Is there any way to remove that without affecting the texture of the photograph? (these curves show over a piece of fabric and I really wanna keep the texture of the fabric).

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've got are some scans of some drawings I've made and I'd like to get rid of a few blemishes. First of all, a few of them have some really ugly creases where they've been folded. How can I get rid of those? Second, some of them were too big to scan all at once and I had to connect several scans together in one JPEG. The borders between them are obvious and I'd like to know how to smooth them over so it's not so obvious that the whole was put together with several pieces.
