Photoshop :: Layer Coloring
Jan 7, 2006
i wanted to make a planet in space, so i rendered > difference clouds, and burned it and such to give it a space look. i then created a new layer and made a teal colored circle for the planet in the center. Now this is the step i have trouble on. When i go to burn it some to give it a 3D look and show that theres a light source, it burns the background space layer too. i don't want it to burn both. i would just like it to burn the planet and leave the background "space" alone and not change it at all, i've done it before but i don't remember.....

I open a photo with Photoshop and then added a New Fill Layer. I want to put a colored layer over my picture and then turn the Opicity to about 25% to give the picture a neat colored effect but the solid layer color is always GREY no matter what I do. I can change it over and over and it reverts to gray.
I would greatly appreciate if someone could assist me and tell me how I can change the fill color layer and why it is locked gray.

I am using Windows 7, I have Photoshop CS5.5 and am improving a bit in my digital illustration/coloring. I was experimenting with organization by using layer groups. When I did this and began to work on the colors, I noticed them behaving very poorly. For one thing, they always came out brighter than I intended. No matter how I tried to darken the colors, they always either fixed to a certain tint or just got brighter when I tried to darken them.
I noticed them interacting with the colors on all of the other layers, even with layers outside of the group. So to get around that I tried erasing wherever colors overlapped. This did not work, it only removed the mixing of colors, I still have really bright colors on everything I paint. I did notice though that when outside of a layer group, all of the colors behaved normally! Yes I know I can just keep the colors out of the group folder to fix the problem, Why do the colors misbehave within layer groups? Why do they respond with a transparent nature(for lack of a better term)? And is there a way around that?
I did check the opacity of everything and everything was at 100%. I did check the blending mode of the group and the individual layers, I had them all set to normal.

I want to do it in photoshop, but I cant figure it out how to color it correctly.
Also if I export it out of flash as an .png and import it into photoshop the quality is all f*cked up...

I've got a black and white photo and a paragraph of text in a layer over the photo.
The text is currently black, but of course when it hits the sections of the photo that are black, you can't see the text. So, I need to get the text to switch to being white at those point. I know I could probably just go in a change it at the proper points, but I don't wanna do that! It's a lot of text and it's a script font so parts of the letter fall at different points in the picture. We thought using the exclusion layer style would work, but it doesn't. Anybody have any suggestions?

used various tehniques for doing her colouring, the main one being builing up colour with the air brush using separate layers for each colour. Using this method, she is doing all her highlights and shading using additional airbrushed layers with lighter of darker shades as necessary. Whilst this produces some great results, things always tend to look a little airbrushed and soft.
how can produce textures such as cloths etc?
I have tried using the texturiser etc but they don't look any good cos the textures are uniform and don't follow the shape of the image.

how to color walls in a photo on photoshop.
I want to make it so that the color on the walls also matches the lighting.
I tried duplicating the photo as photo2 , and adjusting the hue/saturation of photo1 to match the wallpaper color, and then erasing the walls on photo2.
However, it didn't turn out that good.

How can I color over a black and white image without losing what's originally there (lines, texture, etc)? Usually when I color it's using my own lineart, which I just put as the top layer so it doesn't get in the way.

I'm creating an image for a client and he specifically requested the color 226m pantone matte. So basically I highlighted the logo, went to channels and created a spotcolor channel with the 226m. I then filled the channel with the shape of the logo. Now, the logo is placed over some other image, but now it seems kinda of transparent using the spot channel. So basically, what is the best way to show a spot color on the image? I tried saving the picture using Save For Web, but the logo came out grey.

I have a digital image of a geological map in black and white. The geological units appear as closed areas and the identity of the unit type is given only as a number. How can I color the map according to geological unit using PS2, with the coloring acccurately following the internal boundary of each unit? Some combination of magic wand and replace color commands??

I have used photoshop for years but never really gotten good with it. Ive decided to try to color some of my friends drawings, So far I have scanned the line art in using the black and white option. Turned it to grayscale deleted the white, and converted it to RGB. What I need to do next is have the lines redone so that when i do selections it only selects the portion of the comic that i want to color(there small gaps between many of the lines). One tutorial said to "trace" it using the brush tool, my hand is no where near steady enough to do this effectively. My goal is to get the comic to the point where it can be quickly colored.

Ok so as of right now, I have an image with a Black background color with a blurred and vectored White design over it. I want to change the White design into another color. When I use the bucket tool to fill in the white design with say.. Blue, some of the design becomes blocky blue and loses some of its edges.
When I use the "color" brush, the edges and interior part of the White design are colored in blue fine, but I end up coloring over the edges because the design isn't selected with the lasso tool or Marque tool. And even if I selected the design with the previous mentioned tools, the edges would be cut off, leaving me with a colored interior of blue, and some exterior white on the design. So I'm wondering how I would color my design, as if it were originally that chosen color.

I have created many coloring book pages from photos via my personalization business and it has always worked. Used "sketch - photocopy" then cleaned up the image a little. Now for some reason this is not working. When I do these exact same steps it has a dark blue background and just doesn't work. I have an order for 10 personalized coloring books for party favors and I just can't get it to work. I have Photoshop CS3.

my girlfriend's birthday is coming up, and I wanted to do something a little bit different. She's a great artist, and she's drawn a lot of pictures of us together. She's so busy though, that she never has time to finish the drawing completely, so she can't get around to coloring it. I was wondering if you guys could point in the right direction of how to color scanned black and white drawings?

I have been photoshopping (Photoshop 7) for the past 9 months, and I'm fairly comfortable with the program. I use it mostly for art and drawing.
However, recently, I've run into a bit of a problem. You see, up until a month ago, I would scan a penciled drawing of mine in, add a layer over it, and trace it with the brush. It worked pretty well, never gave me any trouble accept for the large amounts of time it would take to trace everything with a mouse.
So, about a month ago I was looking for coloring tips, and I found that most people ink their drawings, scan them in, and somehow color it. I thought I had the answers, but I didn't.
I scanned an inked picture at 300 dpi with my Canon scanner (I don't know the exact model, but it was cheap, and I got what I paid for). I brought it into PS, and I tried using the magic wand tool (with a tolerance of 175) to pick up all the black ink.
