I am using Adobe Fireworks CS3, but I hope some of you will still be able to help me. I've designed a ceramic tile using 4 layers. It looks authentic (I've been in the flooring biz for 35+ years, I know), but it lacks the sheen of a semi-gloss tile seen on the floor with natural light coming from a North-West facing window (or upper left side as seen on the screen). It's a very light colored tile.

if I could convert a 2d bitmap image in a way to make it have more depth like if I printed it on a 4x5 photo machine. Its for gift cards designed on the computer, but I am working with the source images which are 2d and not glossy like the finished cards. How can I achieve that look?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been shooting a lot of "alternative" stuff, much of which has included PVC and latex. Lighting it is tricky enough, but much of the items are wrinkled, and aren't amenable to being ironed--something about melting and causing a mess...
getting the smooth highlights back instead of the textures and wrinkles? I've used the smudge tool, which works OK---if the image is websized, but falls apart at print sizes. Cloning is always an option, but it's going to be a long and painful process.
One example:

I am trying to animate a casino-like light board made of tens of light bulbs/leds. I thought the easiest way to do it would be creating a matrix of bulbs arranged by material ID and then design a pattern in multi sub-object materiel so I could somehow scrub through it and achieve animation effect. The material modifier allows to change ID for the whole object only and MaterialByElement shuffle ID`s in a random manner.

I am attempting to build a facsimilie enigma machine, I would like to know how best to create an effect so that when a key is pressed a corresponding letter appears to light up. Btw I am not looking for an animated image, I can take care of the transitions between on and off, I just need to create the two image states.

How do you lock the pivot point of a light to the light itself? I thought just adding a Axis node would move the light and pivot point but the pivot does not move. Is there a way of parenting them together?

However, if I use them in the floor space of a wood joist floor, the light itself gets covered with the floor. How can I get the light to cut the floor out so I can see the light when it is rendered?

Please answer in the easiest way possible, I have trouble even finding the tools in photoshop. I can use Picture it and tile very slowly myself piece by piece, but I am sure that there is a simple way to push a button and have it done for me with photoshop.

I need to create a single 'photo wall' jpg out of them in which they're all tiled, the long way of doing this is to obv open them all and copy, paste into the psd, then flatten, but thats really, really time consuming. If photoshop had any type of auto import & tile feature? I may have to do this a 2nd time with 1000's of images.

For Example:
I am modifying a brick picture I took to use in SketchUp and want it to tile seamlessly. I can keep going back and modifying, then placing it in SketchUp, modify more, place it... until I get it right. However it would be nice to be able to see it in Photoshop.
the final image is in flash, but this effect was pasted from 19 different images rendered by some kind of "tile flip" effect in Photoshop.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have just got my web page backgrounds from various sites across the net. Now I need to make my own as the background I need cannot be found.
how to make tilable images that are seamless? A very long time ago, I had a program that would paint on one side as I paited on the other (making the image tile seamlessly). However I do not remember the name of the program and was hoping that PS will do it.
I followed the directions, went to the "window" tab in the top tool bar, went down to "images" then over to the next submenu. The word "tile" appears but it is grayed out and I can't access it no matter what I do.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a procedurally generated image (a bird's eye terrain map). The edges wrap-around (I can tile the image without seams) I applied the Sponge artistic filter on it, but the edges don't match anymore.
Is there any way to get a Photoshop filter to recognize the opposite edge's pixels so that it maintains my tile effect?
I'm using photoshop cs6 to create textile designs, and occassionally, (it hasnt happened with every tile) when i change the image size of my tile e.g. from 15cm sq to 10cm sq, then try to repeat the tile it forms thin lines between the tiles?
heres the tile repeated after ive changed the image size and you can see the thin lines...when i zoom in on the tile edges where the line has formed it looks like this....almost as if theres empty pixels that can then be coloured in.
i dont think its a problem when creating the tile because before i changed the image size it repeated fine with no lines, its something thats happeneing when the image size is altered.
I use tile on 95% of my jobs. It is a waste of space when I tile all vertical pictures because I do not have the choice of Tile Vertically or Tile Horizontally as on previous version of Photoshop.
I tried the different choices offered on "arrange document" and there is non with the vertical choice, unless you choose one that displays my photos some on one size and the remaining or two or three remaining, a different size to fill up the screen.
i`m looking on my hardrive for the original seamless tile I used to create a pattern style but cannot figure out how to find it.

I was thinking about grabbing the luminosity of the waterfall and putting it above the replacement tiles. (Using various forms of blending.)
here are the samples and what I did. (i know the tiles are not distorted properly. I was trying to get the see through effect of the water first.)
I've never done this type of thing. (I've read about it before.) I want to make it look good since I won't be at this temp job long and I want to make a good impression. (So they will ask for me to come back later on.)
For the patio pic:
i'm not sure what to do about the shadows. I'm thinking of the same technique for the water edge. And I will be using 2 different tiles to replace the existing ones.
remember in mario paint how you could make stamps using pixels?
well i'm trying to make a tile pattern outta pixelated photos of paintings.
i tried resolution changes but then the image size obviously gets too small to work with.
Have managed to create a AutoHotkey script for keyboard shortcut to tile via Window/Image/Tile but on first use defaults to horizontal. Once changed via Arrange 2up it remembers. Is there a registry hack or a tip or trick? I do side by side all the time and although there is the workaround it's moderately irritating.
View 4 Replies View RelatedWith either Photoshop CS6 or Photoshop CC, opening an unadjusted image of a building and applying Image/Duplicate produces an exact duplicate of the image. If arranging the images using Window/Arrange/Tile All Vertically (or Window/Arrange/2-up Vetical) one of the images will present with a perspective correction. Whichever image that was selected when Arrange was applied receives the perspective correction.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a more realistic way of creating grout. Basically what I have is an underlying seamless texture with a 2px grid sitting on top (pillow emboss)...it's just not realistic enough though. I'd really like to find a way to add some jaggedness to it so the edges aren't so perfect. I've tried the distort/ripple filter, but that really didn't look good...it kept the corners sharp. I also thought the Custom Shape Tool may work if it was one long squiggled line tiled into a grid, but that won't necessarily look great either since the tile's corners won't be rounded.
I'm looking for a quick workflow if possible, as the tile size may vary (6x6, 8x8, 12x12, etc.).
Just need to create this as a background tile for a web page for a site that is for a rock climbing photographer friend of mine.
Should be easy enough but I just cannot get a really good looking effect.
To be honest any kind of 'stone' effect will do, it just has to look good and not like sandpaper.
I've used the Fill>Pattern to tile my seamless patterns tons of times and never had this issue. Suddenly , it started making each tile on the large canvas a different color when I apply Fill>Pattern. At first I thought it was a tip or guide to see the repeat edges , but it shows up in print preview too. What did I do and how do I correct it?

The Material editor by Nitrous, continue to tile the bitmap even if TILE is unchecked.
