Photoshop :: Laptop Multiple Backgrounds
Jul 15, 2012
I want to throw together a few Sonic pictures that will alternate every so often for the background of my laptop. The first attached picture of sonic (Blue hedgehog) is what I currently have. I like the simple style of the picture.
How to keep the background fully black. Change the colors of the 'lasers' to a color suitable for the other charters and then replace sonic for that character in a similar size?
For example.
Red lasers + Knuckles the echidna
Orange lasers + Tails the fox
Grey/red + Shadow the hedgehog
White + Silver the hedgehog
If you see where I'm going with this. I don't want the character pictures to look cartoony I want the pictures created to be as similar to the original sonic picture as possible and I'll attach some pictures of the other charters to show you who they are and the kind of thing I want.
Also If you look at the original sonic picture his hands and feet look a tiny bit blurred. If the picture looks like it contains movement could you add slight blur to emphasize that.
4 pictures altogether if allowed. Similar to the sonic one. Different colored laser. then picture of the other characters replacing sonic.

I've noticed that practically all SIG makers have really nice backgrounds. Do they make the backgrounds personally? Or do they get it from a website?
If you are a person who makes your own sig backgrounds,

before buying a new laptop. My question is will the following specs work well with adobe products like Photoshop, fireworks and like programs. I don’t play any games so that is not an issue. I do mostly web design and like I said using Adobe software mostly. The following is from a Sony Vio Z-series. I am leaning towards it only because it is small and compact….only issue is the graphic card….seems a little weak. However some people say it will be fine with adobe software…not for games. I need some honest opinions and please no advice to switch to Mac…thanks.Sony Vio Z:2.80GHz (P9700) Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor256GB SSD8GB DDR3 SDRAMScreen Specs:13.1" Screen1600 x 900 Resolution XBRITE-DuraView™ TechnologyMobile Broadband Built-InLED BacklightGraphics:· NVIDIA® GeForce® 9300M GS GPU with up to 2010MB total available graphics memory · Mobile Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD with Intel® Clear Video · Up to 256MB of dedicated video RAM · Hybrid Graphics System · Mobile Intel® GM45 Express Chipset

I'm working on a design that seems a bit bland so I thought about adding some texture to the background, though I dont want it to interfere with the foreground elements like text, and images.
Â
1. I can reduce the transparency, what else might I do? Fade it out?
Â
2. Just curious to hear some examples of when you might use a texture for a background of an image? Do you only do it for very specific reasons?.

Has anyone found a supplier of professional backgrounds that can be used in conjunction with wedding photography images.?
I'm looking for pale soft images with no real pattern that can be used as a layer above a photograph to give that dreamy but slightly coloured look.
I believe there are suppliers that produce these backgrounds but can't find what I want by searching. See the background applied to the left page in pdf attached.

What options do I have to remove 'busy' backgrounds from photographs?
Many of my pictures are taken at home and I want to focus upon the wife and kids, not the sofa or curtains.
I've tried the magic wand and select similar and I've tried the magnetic lasoo - whilst both are good, they're not quite there.

So everytime I open a new document it's not a transparent background. Ill even start a new document as transparent and RGB. Still a white background when it is created. So I tried adding an image. Deleted the first layer. Still nothing. So I used a magic wand, deleted the background. Still white.
I remember having this problem before and my professor told me what it was. But I forget what she said, it was over a year ago. Anyone have any ideas?

make logos with transparent backgrounds, so that when they are placed in a DTP program (PageMaker) they do not have a white box around them, I have been using PhotoShop’s transparent export functions but inevitably this leave the image looking bitmapped, especially with text, or just plain bad. Is there anyway one can make logos with transparent backgrounds and have them look good?

I've tried to do the old remove background way, but I can't get it smooth enough, I've also tried the Layer mask, burn levels way I saw on TechTV's Call for help.

I've recently rebuilt my laptop (XP SP2, compaq 6910p) and cannot install Photoshop 7.The CD loads to the point where I choose which feature I want (reader or photoshop), then it just stops. It's not the CD, because it installs fine in other machines. I cannot run the install from either my desktop locally or from a CD drive of a working machine.

I am currently running CS3 on a laptop that will soon be replaced. I know that I have to de-activate CS3 on the old laptop, before I can install CS3 on the new laptop. (Note: New laptop is an ASUS G71G-Q2) Once CS3 is installed I will then run the upgrade disk for CS4. What I'm trying to figure out is this: BEFORE I install the CS4 upgrade, do I need to install all the updates/fixes to CS3 to insure "trouble free" operation of CS4? or does installing the CS3 updates play no role in CS4 as they are like two different app's? I would assume that whatever responce I get here about CS3 and CS4 would also apply to Lightroom 1.4 and Lightroom 2.3 regarding updates.Â
