I need to make a few basic yet elegant templates that use my company logo. However, my logo is on backgrounds of white or black and I can't figure out how to place the logo on colored backgrounds without the back drop the logo is on showing up?
how fancy up your text? Specifically, I wanted to know if there was anyway to add some graphical easthetics to text such as shading or colored patterns. How could I get a 3D effect going, either making the text look like it was carved into stone or pop out bubble-style?
I want to make a background tile. I need it black, with various shades of golds and bronzes in swirls. I made the following but it looks dreadful. I don't know how to do it, and really need to do this asap.
I would love to accomplish what you see below in the red, very elegant and beautiful twirls and swirls. Any tips?
I dont really know how to describe what I'm trying to say. But these lines I'm talking about looks some what similar to the type of curly lines on a dollar but a lil more basic.
I was just curious how to make these lines I want to put them in the corner of my web page.
Notice the blue bluring outside the main page. I know that this is done as a table background, but it also changes size on diffirent pages
do table backgrounds stretch? or do they repeat? is the guy using a diffirent background image for each page on hes site? Also another thing is that hes using the same image in the middle table on the left? or is that just the same image but stretched with a diffirent filename?
I just want a one point thick border rectangle with nothing filled. I tried using the rectangle marquee and stroke. Doesn't work. I tried the rectangle tool and rasterized, it disappeared.
I have a technique for creating a 'rough' black border on photos, but it can't be used with actions. (By rough I mean a similar effect to that which used to be reproduced when darkroom printing from a full frame 35mm negative).
Can anyone please suggest a technique to produce such an effect which I could record into an action, it would have to work with both horizontal and vertical photos, though the longest edge size would remain the same.
I have CS6 and am wondering how to create a white ("comic style"?) border around figures in an image, as in the examples below. I don't wish to include the black shadow of the border, just the white part.
Examples:
Here's the image I'd like to alter, making a white border around the outline of all five figures:
I researched for quite a while but could find no instructions.
I am a relative newbie to photoshop - I am trying to create a border around a logo that has rounded edges. I have used to stroke tool and it creates the border. However, when I try and save it and use it it still has square edges.
I'm trying my noob hand at making fancy scroll graphics. I am not sure if it's naturally a time consuming task or if there is an easier way (which I haven't discovered yet) in CorelDRAW X5.Here is the closest example I can find on what I am trying to do:
You will note that the lines in the Scroll varies width and it is a symmetrical graphic.What I want to know, is there an easy way to recreate something like this by scratch (not doing PowerTrace)?Or is it a time consuming project using the shape tool and adjusting nodes?
I've look at many sites in the last 24 hours to find a tutorial that will show me how to select and delete a dying petal of a flower, copy a another one form the same flower and rotate it and replace the deleted one.
If I knew what the function was called I would have a better chance, but I am the proverbial newbie with any photo manipulation software.
I have difficulties managing the following: I have a disk area (A minimap) and I want to add one (or two) small borders (that look bumpy) around the disk.
I basically want to achieve something like this: [URL]..... As you can see it has an outer border ring (with a very small line in the middle) and another inner ring. The outer ring drops a little shadow onto the inner ring.
I tried the following: Made a circle (with selection tool) -> Selection -> Shrink (3px) -> Filled with grayish color. Now I have a ring and I tried to apply various filters onto this ring to create a border (mainly decor -> border filter, but they all produced weird results).
i have a historic residence i am working on and was wanting to sharpen my modelling skills a bit, but i have a fancy concrete baluster and i do not know how to model it. i would imagine create a profile as a pline and then array it around a center point, but does this make it a 3d model of just 2d items rotated around a 3d point.
i would love to be able to create a single photoshop action for adding a border, plus a signature in the bottom right corner, that works for both portrait and landscape images.
need i say more?
i already have an action that adds a signature in the centre of the border at the bottom of the image e.g. the image below. what i want though is for that signature to be on the RHS and for the same action to work for portrait images as well.
supplementary info: reason for this is that I want to be able to export 300 wedding images (mix of landscape and portrait images) from lightroom in my pre-selected order (meaning the files are labelled from 001 to 300, ordered according to how the wedding day unfolded) and then use PS to add the border and the signature, in the same place, and for it to work for both orientations.
i need this to work for full sized exported jpeg images, i.e. i want the files that i give on CD to my clients to include my signature in this manner. so I don't want to copy the initial layer and then reduce the second layer size to leave a border around the second layer.
i hope i've been clear I think that this sort of presentation makes such a difference to final printed image, and I DONT want to have to go to all 300 images picking out the landscape from portrait ones (although this may be what I have to do and wouldn't really take that long but surely there's a better way!!!!).
I would like to get a special border effect on my image. It should get a kind of frayed border. With one of my filters, I can get such effect, but only with included white background. But I need it without background, just like if cropped. Is there any way to get that effect?
(I use version Designer 7, but try out ver. 9 now)
I need to know how to create a border with just the top 2 corners rounded? I saw a video tutorial, but the instructions were not clear at all, and it also paid no attention to details like how to make the the corners the exact same size. I want to use it for my company's marketing emails, so the top 2 corners would be rounded while the bottom will align with my email page
I have recently started attending a photographic club and want to start showing off my prints in competitions. To do so I have to mount them in a card border.
When I do this I loose part of the image because i need about 20mm all the way round to mount. A solution is to create a border which I can apply to all images. I do this at the moment in PS CS5 manually.
Is there an automated way to do this in LR3 via the presets so that a standard 20mm border is applied to any image irrelevant of size or orientation
I am using CorelDraw (X6) for a long time now. But I still found no way to create a border around my whole site without being interrupted by this border. I want the border to be in foreground so that images and colored rectangulars can overlap a little. So when I put it in the foreground I cannot select the other object behind it.I cannot select other rectangulars by clicking on their filling/background but only by clicking exactly on their border.
Is there a logical way to use a Title Block and border page that I created for use on an ANSI size A page to create an ANSI B, C, D? Scaling seems to work in one direction (x or y) but not both. Stretching doesn't solve my text in the Title Block from appearing too small when I create a D size.
Ive found a way to create a border, just adding the 3d extrude tool, and it works quite well, however adding a drop shadow to the image looks cool to. I have exported the image as a jpg, however on my siote there is this white background. How do I lose this?
I have need of creating a 12" wide (contrasting) carpet border for an area. The main carpet area will have a pattern. The border will be a complementary solid color carpet.I attempted to use Create & Divide Parts to do this, but get strange results.
1. Create Parts > Select Floor. 2. Divide Parts 3. Edit Sketch > draw two closed loops to define the part area. 4. Exit sketch - entire sketch shifts to the right by a foot or so.
It seems that I have accidentally changed a setting but I don't know how to fix it. I am trying to create a circle with a thick edge/border,like this My link I am going to have text in the border. It worked fine as in previous pic but gimp wont let me do it anymore.
When I try to create a circle with wide edge now the shape completely changes to a diamond type shape My link It's not a circle anymore! I am guessing that I must have changed some setting but don't know how to fix it. I am using windows vista and gimp 2.8.4.I
Okay I'm making an image and I want to create a black border around a freely drawn selection but then feather it in so the opacity of the black border starts at 0 and ends at 100. How would I do this?
