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?

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.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to create a field of silver (and gold) sparkles kind of like what you'd get if you painted with a glue gun. Not surprisingly, Lots of what I've found searching involves applications of Filter > Noise, often on a cloud rendered layer with smartly chosen foreground / background colors.
But I don't like my results so much. Looks ok small. But upon closer inspection lacks shine. More like silver or gold colored sandpaper. Code:

I want to keep the color as it is and make a brush out of it. Is this possible? When I select the area of the image and goto define brush, the brush is just as black and stuff. The reason I can't just change my foreground color is because the image has multiple colors. Anyway I hope someone understands what I want here.

I'm stumped as to what I'm doing wrong/not doing right to produce the glow effect. In other words, the outer/inner glow effect no longer works. Can anyone please help me?

I am trying to add some texture to some text by subtracting a grunge pattern from it. I've expanded the appearance of the text, so it is now shapes. However, when I place the texture shape over it and try to subtract it from the letter shapes, it only leaves me with the first letter.
Is there another way to do something like this? I would rather not have to keep subtracting the pattern from each letter individually. I've tried ungrouping the letters, then uniting them in the Paths panel, but it doesn't seem to be working either.
I made a design that consists of multiple shapes; the entire thing has been expanded and grouped. I image traced and expanded a grunge texture that I would like to "cut out" of my design. I placed the texture over the design, selected both Groups (texture and design), and tried Minus Front and Minus Back (among a few others just to test) and the two both leave nothing but a couple speckles from the texture.

Here's one of the letter to show what it looks like before and after creating the compound path using the minus front pathfinder option. On the left is how I'd like it to look.
Although it doesn't look like much of a difference when printed it flattens out even more. I've tried every grouping option I could think of, used the pathfinder options and used this thread: [URL].... to try creating it using a transparency. Nothing gets the detail I need.
Is this something I can achieve?
I'm interested in how to get that "glow" that I see often in portraits. Is this a type of blur? Here are two examples of what I am speaking of. The second photo is a lingere photo in case you would prefer not to view it. The first is a headshot.

I am learning to use Photoshop and doing well(ish) I thought, but am totally frustrated with this probably very simple process that I cannot get.
I have one word that I need to give the effect of a neon glow.
So far I have:
1. Filter
2. Artistic
3. Neon Glow
4. Now, when the Neon Glow (100%) window comes up, I cannot get anything to change or do a thing?
Please give me some direction from here.
My word is there, should it be selected? If so whith which tool? etc.
how to do the quickest and most effective neon glow?
Similar to the O2 stuff?
I have a picture I was asked to make for someone and there are 2 images that I would like to have a gold glow coming from, as if there were a light behind it. It'll be on a black background and there's nothing really fancy about it at all, though if I see anything that'd fit in, I might add it ;-)
I'm guessing that I'll need to place sumthing gold behind the image and add some sort of effect to the border, but I'm not really sure what that'd be.
trying to apply a diffuse glow, but the resulting effect comes out all grey/blue. I've tried the effect on multiple different image types (jpg, nef, etc.) and the results are always the same. I know what diffuse glow is supposed to look like.. and this ain't it!
I was editing on a different windows machine and I applied the diffuse glow. It worked fine. 10 minutes later, I tried to apply the filter again to the same image (started over), and again it gave me the ugly gray/blue look.
