I would like to ask about adding one image to another such that
both images show together.
I don't know the jargon for that type of thing.
I had an older program named "PhotoSuite" v 3.5 (outdated now) that would
paste images on top of another image allowing both to add together.
I think they called it 'Transparent paste'.
Can I do that in PhotoShop?
I have a registered copy of PhotoShop 5.0 Lite.
I use CS2.
I'm trying to save an image as a JPEG along with it's transparent background.
However, for some reason.... when I save it... no matter what I do (highest quality, no matte, etc), there is still a white background.
When I save it as a GIF, it kills the quality but has a transparent background...
I can have high quality but no transparent background or low quality or transparent background
I am building a specialized map for my local area with territory borders that need to have 8-pt strokes around them. Because each territory needs to live on it's own layer (to be printed seprately after the overview map is done) I found the easiest method to be selecting each territory with the polygonal lasso tool and then make a new Layer via copy and then gve the top layer the stroke effect I need. I worked fine when the strokes were at 100% opacity, but I later decided that each stroke should only be at about 60% opacity so that you can see the roads, rr track and other details beneath. In this case, the problem arises when territory boundaries overlap (as pictured below) because the stroke transparency of becomes additive where the 2 strokes overlap.
what setting I may use to make these strokes so that they can overlap and appear with absolute 60%transparency?

I'm trying to merge two images in PS CS5 on a mac. They're the same size and everything, but when I try dragging the image across no new layer gets created. When I create a layer and try dragging that I get a message saying the destination file can't accept it.

The closest I get is Different layer blend mode: the rock is correct but the sky gets inverse. What is the trick to get the two merged and not get halo?
I created a composite image using several of my photos. I work using levels and I had one image each on its own level. I needed to merge two images to create the effect that they were one - a running stream was one (a sort of earth tone tint) and a small waterfall cascading over some rocks was the other (a more warmer orange-ish tint). I thought I used a level merge command but when the two levels were merged, the coloring on the images matched (the earth tone tint)! I can't for the life of me remember what I did! I've tried auto-blend but the top image just disappears and photomerge doesn't look familiar.

I just took three images of a sunset so that I could create a panorama image. When I use photomerge in photoshop cs6, only two images merge together and the third image is left by itself. I overlapped each image a sufficient amount but I still can't merge the third image.
Here is a screenshot of the end result. Am I not overlapping enough, or is there something I am doing wrong?

View 7 Replies View RelatedFor my work, I use a microscope that scans a slide to take an image. It takes around 20 photos and creates a single image, but each one is still clearly visible as an individual image within the overall one, due to shadowing etc. and imperfect alignment of the images. Is there a way to correct this across the whole image, at least to remove the shadowing if not the alignment?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI shot landscape images for a panorama of 4 rows with 6 images in each row. The first image on the top row includes the top of a tree, but the other 5 images only has sky. Photomerge will not merge the 5 images of the top row because it only has sky in the image. I can merge the bottom 4 rows without a problem and can include the first image on the top row, but not the others.

I am using Bridge to merge two images into PS as a HDR image. I have done this with multiple images (RAW and TIFF). I am consistently getting screwy results. The image drops almost all detail and a TON of artifacts get dropped in. I am attaching a quick photo which is a brick front of a building.

But I can't seem to get this to work. I tried using (255,0,0,10) i.e. red with very low alpha and that sort of works, in that it looks right on screen, but it's not outputting as I expect/desire when I save to a flat file like PNG/JPG.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThis is an embarrassing question as i'm sure it's a basic photoshop tool, but I can't figure out how to take crops out of images, and merge them together to form one photo.
I have 4 photos of individual people, and I want to take equal 'slices' of them to merge into one- but still keeping the image the same size as a photo.
I know that my photo sizes are 3543px by 2362 px, and I know how to crop the images to the right size (885.75px by 2362px) but how to combine them.
Should I be using layers? I'm using CS4
This is probably a really basic one - and I'm sure I've read how to do this here before in a really simple way, but I can't re-find the post after some time searching: I have two photos side by side on two different layers, and I simply want to create a fade between one and the other over an overlapping area of about 10mm. I have tried selecting one layer, and using the gradient tool, but I am doing something wrong as this seems to affect all layers; ie it works fine on one layer, but the other layer gets faded out too. I'm sure I have to create a new layer or something and perform the gradient on that, or maybe I have the wrong gradient settings.
Or do I process both photos in separate files, and then bring them in to a new file and overlap them?
how to import layers? I need to merge two images together, but they are on seperate files and so on seperate layers, how can i put these two images onto one file?

View 5 Replies View Related I have two machines running LR3, a mac laptop and a windoze desktop. Both are using local disk and a central NAS. All files use sidecar (XMP) files.
Â
Frequently I'll copy my pictures directory over to the NAS to back it up or, if I'm upgrading the big windoze box, I'll copy it's images over to the NAS in a different directory. I've also been known to prune the local folders since I know they're backed up and because I need the space for a project. This creates a situation where one folder on the NAS may have duplicate subfolders (say "2008 May") same as the notebook but may also have folders (say "2008 November") that don't exist on the notebook.
Â
I could live happily with this mess except that now I want to make one big master catalog of ALL the images on the NAS, minus the duplicates. In other words, I want to clean stuff up.
Â
If I just import the photos (as opposed to the catalog) I get the duplicates removed but then I lose all the collection sets and previews. If I import the catalogs then I get the collections and previews but I also get duplicates.
Â
What I want is either a tool, or a means in LR3 to eliminate (or merge) the duplicates.
Â
It could be an external file utility that compares two directories and eliminates the duplicates (followed by a LR3 catalog cleanup of missing files) or a way to import the catalogs, remove the duplicate entries and then export as a single file structure.
