Photoshop :: How To Create Distressed / Rubber Stamp Effect
May 24, 2013
I am trying to create a distressed, rubber stamp effect in Photoshop and am having some difficulty with the orientation of some of the text inside a text wrap. The text on top appears just how I want it, but when I try to place text on the bottom, it appears upside-down. I've tried using text-warp as well, but it obviously distorts the text and I don't want that. Is there an easy way to have the text on the bottom of text-wrapped circle orient rightside-up?
I am trying to create a rubber stamp effect over a jpg by using the following steps: URL.... Â When I Live Trace the below image "A" it doesn't look like the original and changes into image "B".Also, I cannot seem to extract the white from the picture after I have Live Traced it?
I am trying to distort/shape a photo to fit into another shape, in the shape of a shield. Its something that would be reused on other pictures.
2 things i would like to do, first is of course as above
the other, is there any way to create like a rubber stamp or a cutting tool, that once I have the shape I want created, I can use that to copy/cut/paste that image shape from other images also ?
Is there a way to create a rubber band effect (similar to drawing lines in Autocad) in drawings in Inventor. Possibly using ClientGraphics but not just inside of a DrawingView.
anyone know a good place to go for a rubber stamp tutorial or have any experience creating one themselves? im looking for something in the vein of 'conspiracy' or 'confidential' like the red rubber stamp you see on paper work that gets 'denied' or a paper that 'failed' in the movies. something you might see on a manila folder that says 'confidential' or 'conpsiracy'.
What is the best way to create an "inked rubber stamp" look?
I realized that you turn it into a bitmapped tif and colorize it in a layout program. I am mainly interested in ways to "weather" or "stress" bitmapped logos, etc. Is there a filter or is it done by manually?
I'm new to Photoshop and have been trying a few things to get better acquainted with it, one of those things is drawing and using a rubber stamp. With this aim in mind, I followed this tutorial: at the start when I click on New I chose 800 x 600 then chose a 'transparent' background, everything goes as it should through the tutorial right upto the end at the point I apply the 'spatter' effect it unfortunately doesn't have the same effect as it did with the non-transparent background. Also how do I actually 'use' or 'apply' the image to another image or letter?
I have been using Photoshop ver 5.0 for a couple of years, off and on, and never had a problem with the Rubber stamp tool until recently. It always worked. I just selected it, then the pen size, then held the alt key down to select some color pixels, then clicked where I wanted to paint.
It doesn't work anymore. As soon as I hold the alt key down and try to select a pixel, up pops a dialogue box saying, "Must define a pattern" ??? I have searched through the help index, tried various things, but cannot find the solution.
Running 5.5 I double clicked on the rubber stamp tool & cleared the aligned box in the rubber stamp options palette. Then I alt clicked in the image. Then I clicked & dragged in another part of the image. The cross cursor at the source point moved as if the aligned box was still checked. How do I get the rubber stamp to work in the non-aligned mode?
I've got a problem using the rubber stamp tool. I want to use it to clone some dust spots out on several photos which are part of a time-lapse scene. Therefore I thought it would be easy to record using the rubber stamp tool, then applying the action to all photos via a batch process.Â
However, it doesn't seem to work. All my other steps in the action occur, but not the rubber stamp tool. Same is true for the healing brush.Â
I have installed CS4 on my desktop and my laptop. On the desktop version, the Clone tool looks and behaves exactly as it should and I have no problem with it.
However, on my laptop, the tool looks like a rubber stamp (the same icon as is in the palette) and does not work properly. Changing the brush size does no good because it's not a brush, just a rubber stamp (yes, I have chosen Clone, not Pattern).
the only thing I can think of is lack of horsepower in the laptop (for instance, only 512Mb of RAM)
I see if I apply and adjustment layer, it works for the whole clip but any filter outside of that or rubber stamp only lasts for a few frames. How do I apply them to the entire clip?
How to make a vector shape appear distressed or cracked in a natural-looking way? The best example I can think of is the Chickenfoot logo. It is a simple 2-color logo and looks nicely aged. I've been thinking about this for a while, but can't decide on an effective approach to achieve it.
I want to make stamp effect of peoples heads. For example I want to put mans portrait on the some background (marble texture) but to produce stamp effect with same colour and texture like marble, (like money coin).
I want to apply geographic map over another image but to look like water stamp over the image. How can I create such effect with photoshop or some plugin is aveilable.
I'm trying to create a distressed look on an object that has a gradient mesh appliet to it. i've done this with regular objects but never on one with a gradient mesh. one of the steps in this process is to expand the object, but i'm not able to do so because the expand option is grayed out in the drop down menu. Â normally after expanding the object i would use one of the artistic charcoal brushes to create a texture over the object in a different color. then i would select the brush strokes and expand apperance. then, using the pathfinder, i would merge the expanded brush strokes with the expanded object and then delete the brush stokes. what remains is the object with little cut-outs where the texture of the brush strokes used to be. Â however i can't do this because i can't expand the object with a gradient mesh.
I want to make a big NO boxed in with a line through it. I have it all layed out, but I simply cannot make it look like a rubber stamp. I made two layers, used an Underpainting Filter and a Spatter Brush Stroke filter and took out the white, but it still didn't look right.
I have another paint app where it will do a brush mode that is a rubber-band mode. So if there is a brush that's 25 pixels wide and you go and click once somewhere and then move the cursor... a straight line rubberband appears connected to your cursor. When you click again, the brush is painted in a straight line to where you clicked. It's great when you are trying to quickly paint a straight line to match something in the image. Does PS have a brush mode like this? (I know that drawing paths can be stroked in straight lines, etc. but I need a brush mode that is quickly switchable to as I am speed painting thousands of images and brushing is fastest for this work).
I have made a film and seperated it into frames. I was wondering whether there was a automated process in photoshop to help me create a similar effect to the image above.
Is it possible to create a Hi Res styled effect with Photoshop alone, or is it just down to the original images limitations?The high gloss and full depth luster look amazing, is that just down to a good image then tweaked?
