Photoshop :: How To Select All Black In A Photo?
Apr 14, 2009
I have an all black jpeg image, a flourish - I want to select all of the black, and change it to white instead. When I try and select it with the selection tool, it takes forever and isn't accurate bc there are so many twirls in it, etc. Is there a way to ask photoshop to select all black, and transform it into another color?

I have been working on a large number of sketches. At this stage I am just using the path tool to make the outlines of my cartoons.
I have got fairly confident with the path tool now, however on my first 3 pictures my paths were a mess. The first 3 pictures I stroked the path at 10 pixels, I would like to reduce this to 6 pixels. I am not able to go back to the original paths so I guess I need to select lines from the completed pictures and and convert these to paths, then restroke.
I have been trying to select by colour (it is all black) but that gives me the outline of the black, ie, a double path. I have tried selecting the back ground and expanding it by 2 pixels, this worked but not in tight corners.

I have an image where i chopped seperate parts of different pictures, desaturated all 4, but on the one, there seems to be more "grays" in the black and white photo... i want the grays to be more black. Messing with the brightness and contrast isnt doing it...

is there a way to choose black as a layer color (for text)? I frequently print USGS map sections with notes added on. I would prefer the text simply be black rather than dark gray (or any of the other dark colors). Typically my drawings are all monochrome, so its not an issue. However, USGS prints are all in color, white text is not automatically recognized as black due to the colored background. Therefore it prints white (absence of color over background) and can't be easily read.
Currently I use color 250. Is there a trick or add-on that would let me select straight black for my text or layer color?

I was wondering how to select a photo from a scan. I used the various selection tools and then copied and pasted the photo into a new Photoshop document and the scan appears striated and strange. Is there something I'm doing incorrectly?

I'm trying to select an object out of photo. I want just the object and not the background.
I've been trying to use the magnetic lasso, but when I get to an area where there's a shadow (lack of contrast) the magnetic lasso becomes somewhat less useful.

I have a band stage with a bunch of laser light rays, and the room is dark, how can I remove the black so it doesn't print a ton of ink? I would just print the colored rays on a white business card, with my text.

I use Photoshop Cs3 and know a little about it. I have a photo I scanned in at 600 ppi and I want to select part of it - blow that up to an output of at least 8" wide.
I do not have Illustrator - I use a Mac and am currently working on a project with Mac's program ipages.

I am using Photoshop 6.0 and would like to know (in stupid people terms) if there is a way that I can make my photo black and white, but still have one color in it (for example, a black and white face except for green eyes).

What I have is a photo of a classroom with pupils seated and teachers standing against a large windows on one side of the room.
The photo was taken pointing towards the windows so that the pupils near the camera are perfectly exposed but the ones nearest the window are too light and faded out.
I'm sure I read a tutorial some time ago about dealing with this type of thing but I can't find it anymore.

I have a small image imported from a PDF 1.2 X 2 centered on a 8.5 X 11 inch White background.
I simply want to select the black portion of the image, copy - duplicate a set amount around the existing image.
I thought this would be select, copy paste, paste..... done, save. but no not that easy.
I assume I have 2 layers a FG and a BG layer. I believe that FG is Black ? I have tried rectangle select then paste but that is not working.
How do you get a listing of layers?
How do I just select the Black FG layer data?
How to I paste into a 3X3 array which is my ultimate goal:
X is the original image in Black:
C are to be copies of the X image:
C C C
C X C
C C C
I will attach the PDF image

I want to covert a color photo into black and white but bring back a certain color. How many ways are there to do this? Which method is the most professional (as in provides the most professional finished product) I've read about doing it using the paint brush to bring back the color, also the color selection tool.
The particular image I'm trying to achieve this on is not so simple. The part I want to bring color back into is a dripping pink ice cream, so there are small drips and blobs, often with fair skin color in the background. Ice cream is dripping down face and hands and body and I want to preserve these details accurately. The bits I need to bring back aren't large blocks of color so I'm finding it very difficult to achieve a professional look.

I have a Mac, OSX 10.8.2, Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM. Photoshop CS5. My crop tool worked for years, then all of a sudden when I crop a photo, hit return, the image goes black. I even reinstalled the application.
