View 2 RepliesI was currently in a game (im only 16 >.<) and i noticed someone put a spray on the wall of a character in this game. I am fairly new to photoshop but I use it enough at home and in my votech school to know a bit of it, the problem is The character had no backround. When I try to make an image like this when I save it, it comes out with a white backround. How do you cut an image so when you open it there is just that image no backround behind it?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to creat a simple layer mask and no matter what I do, the image has a white backround not a transparent backround. Here is what I'm doing.
open my image
create a layer
using the lasso, I cut out the image
select "add layer mask"
clean up image
save as aTIFF file
The backround looks transparent then but when I bring it in to Final Cut
Pro, it has a whit backround.
What makes this all the more frustratinf is that I've done it MANY times
with no problems, but now for some reason I'm getting that white backround.
I don't think it is a FCP thing. I think I have changed some setting in Photoshop
but I can't figure out which one.
Take a picture of a car, and say copy just the wheel and stick it in front page.
the problem i have at the moment is that im getting the background comming through,
I would like to create a shiny platinum backround for a video I am producing.

I'm making a signature for another forum and this forum has interchangable backround colors so I was wondering how I could make my convex image blend in with whatever backround its put against.
I just need to take a white backround away from some graphics i made in flash heres a pic of what i need to do.
I just simply want the white backround gone, leaving my text and a transparent backround (I started the file choosing transparent backround)
Im trying to put my friends record label Logo in the backround of a pic of him (both the same size ..but the logo like transperant ) ... I know i have to create 2 layers and lower the opesity of the Logo ...
View 3 Replies View RelatedGot started with doing some picture editing and now I have this solid black image around all images. What is this area called? Backround, mask, border, window color, frame, pane, what? And how do I get rid of it so I can have white or light grey. It is hard to work with this black backround. I will see if I can attach the Print Screen for this issue.
I guess I can't add the attachment.
I open an image/ Background layer. I duplicate that layer, and apply a Levels adjustment that I'm happy with.
I decide to do an "effect" layer such as sharpening, etc., but I want to be able to control the effect of the "Sharpening" Layer with the Opacity Slider, without effecting the Levels Layer below.
If I Duplicate the Levels Layer, or select Layer New-"Layer Via Copy" for the Sharpening Layer, moving the Opacity Slider, on the Sharpening Layer, will also effect the degree of Levels adjustment on the Levels Layer, as it's a Duplicate of that layer.
"New Layer", or "New Layer From Background" doesn't seem to work either?
i am just wondering what basic edits everyone does to their photographs before they hand them over to their clients? Mostly i try to get my photos the way i want them in camera, but always try to play around with contrast and brigtness and sharpness and ive just started to mess with curves....what does everyone else do? Or does it mainly just depend on the photo?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have both ImageReady and Photoshop but have never got the chance to actually tinker with any of them. Now, however, after seeing how much the programs can do, I really want to go serious with the programs. So I have a bunch of questions:
1. Photoshop, is it a generally easy program to learn?
2. Do you need to buy a book/tutorial or any of that stuff to really handle Photoshop or can you just tinker with the program and in a few months be able to handle it like a pro?
3. How do you add a border to an image using Photoshop?
4. How do you add letter or even a sentence in an image using photoshop?
The way that I cg is very simple, new layer+lasso tool for filling in areas+simple brush tool to fill in all areas missed. Only the last few times I've tried to fill in any missed area's my color is coming out darker everytime I go over it as if coloring with a marker.
Before it stayed one color and i was able to fill in area's quickly and with the exact color that i've chosen. I'm not sure as to how to get it back the way it was and I have no idea what I have done to change it. Anyone that can help I would greatly appreciate it.
filling an area with a pattern.
I have a simple image that is a black and white cut-out of an object. I have been trying to find a way to fill the white area with a piece of an image I have of an animal-print.
What is the easiest way to fill that area with the pattern?
Maybe make it so that the black and white cut-out actually performs like a cut out and you could just put the layer of the pattern underneath the cut-out?
I have both 64 and 32 bit Vista UL. would I see a advantage installing the
64 bit windows?
I am making an image which will act as a border for a website. So i am using a color to blend to two together.
Which i thought would be easy seen as i had the HEX code for the color i was using. I have set the background of my page to the color (#CCFF99), and i have tried to fill in my image with the same color, but when they are both on the page, they look like a completly different shade.
Am i doing something wrong, or am i asking too much that i want the same shade on both an image and a page. I thought that was one of the plus points to HEX codes, so that i could have the same shade over and over!
I am rather primitive in both my PS usage, and my gif-making skills. I make animated gifs by stringing together a series of images. I have found that the final result looks better if I resize the individual "frames" beforehand, rather than just adjusting the final gif as a whole.
Anyway...is there any way I can save tons of time by loading a series of images into PS, and making an "all-encompassing" command? Meaning...can I tell PS to resize all ten images to the same proportion automatically, rather than doing it one at a time? Or, even better...can I re-size AND convert the images to "gif format," with a few deft strokes of the keyboard?
Well how can I work with photoshop, when after I save TOP LEFT it locks the image and I can't rotate it to make the other corners?
Everything is locked and I'm quicky getting frustrated here and wondering why I paid money for something that won't work they way I need it to.
I mean using Namo web editor wasn't this hard, it was easy right out of the box, and every button worked how it was suppose to and did not lock the image or lock up at all.
It's gotten so that I have to shut down photoshop and restart just to do anything or create another layer to unlock an image. Then, none of the buttons won't work after the 1st working, I click on elliptical and it does nothing, but display a double headed arrow.
I'd like to create a picture with colors that are "dirty" and not highly saturated. How do I get these kinds of colors?

I've tried saving images with sRGB color profile, Adobe RGB, and even NO color profile.
While each test has yielded various saturation levels (sRGB seems more saturated than Adobe RGB), the one single constant in all of them is that IE displays more (too?) colorful images than FF.
I understand that IE doesn't color manage while FF does, but that hardly explains the results I'm getting. If I don't color manage a document, shouldn't it display the same way in IE and FF? And how to explain that the sRGB profile documents are more saturated in IE than the Adobe RGB ones, if IE cannot read color profiles? And why does FF display *both* sRGB and Adobe RGB as less saturated than these same images in IE?
how to crop a section of an image and paste it into another picture. Im pretty lamen when it comes to PS so the easier the better. What i am trying to acheive and learn, is to outline the shape of an item in a picture and copy that shape to the clipboard, to paste onto another picture. EG in the pic below id like to separate the BARN and GRAIN SILO form the background, so that i can paste it into another pic.

When I make three points it connects the first and last to form a triangle, but I'm not trying to make a triangle, I want to make an "L" shape. How can I make it fill just two (or three) points to make a straight line?

Just downloaded PS CS5 on my new 64 bit computer. A lot of my basic filters are grayed out and I don't have access to them. Filters such as distort, brushes,artistic to name a few. I did download the 32 bit & 64 bit version.

There used to be a slideshow program you could download for free that offered the simple service of allowing you to click on any given folder and look at each image in a slideshow. There's iPhotos but I don't want to have to pop open iPhoto and add any new pics in those folders as well as add them to photos on my harddrive. I just want to keep my photos in their specific folders on my harddrive and be able to boot up a slideshow program to view them whenever folder I want to.

Photoshop CS3 & CS4 actually run way SLOWER in Aero Basic. You'll see this while zoomed in using the airbush. Even the cursor jumps across the screen without any tool being in use. If i change my cursor to 'standard' or 'precise' in the preferences the lag will go away.
There must be many others that have noticed this problem. Has it not been fixed because its not possible? No one figured out what causes it? Many users that want maximum performance out of their workstations will disable aero. I'm sure this is embarrassing for adobe because it effects very high end machines.
Running in full Aero Mode is VERY smooth but I cannot use that because i need Max running too.
I'm running on a Nvidia 9800GTX. Same problems on other earlier Nvidia cards too. No ATIs here.
why when I insert text into photoshop doc it has an underline by default.
I click on the horizontal type tool and start to type some text and it has a period to start and then each letter has an underline and the text is not sharp.
