I want to remove some objects from images (like peopls, cars, etc.), so that nobody can notice. I use cloning stamp tool so far, but it isn't always very convenient. Does anybody know any other tools or techniques for that?
I have a photo which I need removing an object. The photo is of a butterfly. However, there is a white sign with Thanks written. I didn't notice the sign when I took the photo. I'm not sure what is the best way to remove this sign.
I have something to add (sort of) to it. I work with Horse Advertisements and I get requests asking me to remove a horse from the background (say, a winning background) and put it like in a field or just against another pic. Can someone help me in doing this. What tool is best to use? Ive tried the background eraser tool, but I leave gaps in my erasing and it looks really fake. If you look on my website, on the front page (its not an ad that I did) but it was done with photoshop. I asked the lady how she did it and she said that she did it with the pen tool. I know what the pen tool is, but I cant figure out how to cut the background out of it, and when I cut and paste it into another doc. it usually says (say I'm trying to put it into illustrator or indesign) it says that the Photoshop segment is too large to export. Then when it is the right size, it turns out to be really pixelized. (Its not very good quality.
I have a pillow bevel applied to a paint splatter brush image, and I'm having trouble with the shadows. I want to save this splatter as a transparent PNG. The problem is that a drop shadow effect is showing up when I save it this way. I think it's a "shading" setting rather than a true drop shadow, as there is no drop shadow set in the layer styles.
The shadow does not appear when a white background is applied. It only shows when the background is transparent. I've tried reducing the shading opacity in the bevel dialogue, and this does get rid of the drop shadow....the problem is that it also removes the shading from the paint splatter, making the image look flat instead of raised.
i have drawn a 3d pyramid 65 radius and 25 high, drawn a 30x30x15 block in the centre and where it breaks through the pyramid i wish to remove it... is there a subtraction/trim option to allow this?
Question about Xara Extreme 5. When I click on an object, there are a bunch of square dots around the outsite. When I use the pencil tool to go from one dot to another dot, waiting for the ~ to appear, Xara "sometimes" removes the "little" piece I am trying to remove... but other times, removes 90% of the object, keeping the tiny piece of the image (I am trying to remove). Is there a trick or shortcut so that Xara ALWAYS removes the smaller section? I thought that it would be, if you are selecting a piece (i.e. 10% of the selected image), it would remove it... but nope, sometimes it keeps the 10% and removes the 90%. Very frustrating and obviously I do not understand the use of this tool.
I'm kinda new to Xara Photo and graphic Designer 6. I have photos of appliance spares. I need to use only the images of the spare parts for an advert(of which the background will be white) - I dont want the background of the photo.
I have a JPG file with a colored design on a white background. I'd like to extract the design without the background and be able to use it as an .ai file. I tried tracing it and then expanding it, but when I copy the design and place it on a different background, the white background comes with it. How can I isolate just the design?
Here's the JPG with the design I want:
and I'd like to be able to isolate it so I can use it on different backgrounds -- such as:
I have just installed my old CorelDRAW X4 on a Windows 7 X64 computer, and want to work on text within a rectangle. When I try to draw a marquee round the text to move it, the rectangle moves instead (it has no fill). I seem to remember there is an option to select or remove "treat objects as filled", but can not find it.
Drawing A has a grid system Xref-ed into it. It also has a block reference in it, repeated in various places throughout the drawing.
I Xref-ed the grid into the block to check something, and now I can't get it out. This means that the grid now repeats all over Drawing A as well and is generally being a nuisance.
If I try to unload the Xref within the block, it unloads it in Drawing A too. If I try to detach it from the block, it returns this message: Xref [Xref name] has multiple references. Not detached. If I try to detach the Xred from Drawing A, it returns the same message.
How do I unload the same Xref that occurs in a block in a drawing, and in the drawing itself, independently of each other?
Since i updated PS (CS6) the last time it has this very strange behavior when i try to position a object via the Arrow Keys.When i hit a Button very fast (3 times) the object jumps back to its very first position where i started to move it.
When it is a new "feature" - where can i turn it off?
I have a logo that I am working with and I need to make it a 3D object for what I'm doing in After Effects. I am trying to make it 3D so I can edit it in repousse because all I really need to do is extrude it.
I've tried the different options in the 3D drop down menu but none of them bring me to edit in repousse.
Also, I know that I can make it 3D in After Effects my making multiples of it and what not but I don't want to go about it that way. Also, I'm working with CS5.5 and the 3D renderer plugin in After Effects is only available in CS6.
I render 3d object from raster and smart object (extrusion) Each time i do the edge where the extrusion meets the front inflation material is slightly distorted. Should be a smooth line.
A problem I do not have in CS5 - painting/stamping/blurring etc on a 3D model is showing up in unwanted, unseen areas of the model. I have tried narrowing the falloff, selecting paintable areas. Is there a setting I'm missing that fixes that in CS6?
I have big, fancy, Photoshop 7.0 and I'll be damned if I can figure out how to do some simple redeye removal. The whole thing is really over my head, but I'm a musician trying to clean up some photos with redeye.
After installing the CS4 upgrade on my Vista 32-bit machine I went to uninstall CS3. The procedure ended up with the red crosses and an error message stating that CS3 and components could not be removed.
Having deactivated CS3 I tried once more with the same result.
I would appreciate any advice on how best to proceed to uninstall CS3 whilst ensuring I don't screw up my CS4 installation.
I'm running Photoshop CS3 as an upgrade from CS2 using XP Pro, In order to use some third party software I was advised to remove CS2 or the software would not work. But when I did so I found that some of CS3 was compromised as a result. For example, in Bridge I could no longer double click on an image to load it in PS.
Since my CS3 is an upgrade, is it sharing some common files with CS2? And if so, how do I remove it without removing the essential files. And if my CS3 it is not sharing files with CS2, what can I do to remove the latter without messing up the former?
I sadly do not have Photoshop C5 so can not easily remove someone from photos. I tried the cloning tool to just place the background over the person to be removed but it doesn't look very nice. (I'm just starting to use Photoshop).
It is a lake scene and the person to be removed is on the far right, not in the middle of a group or anything.
I have CS5. I have a jpg with a watermark on it that I can't seem to get rid of. It's the sew-classic.com across the page in the image. I was hoping that it would come up as a separate layer in Photoshop, so I could just delete it, but it's all on one. If it comes to zooming in and going over it with the background color it won't be worth the effort!
I was looking through some of my old folders this morning and stumbled across a pic I had to tinker with early last year for a magazine I was putting together.
as can be seen in the picture, there is a big patch of light (I assume from a flash or other light) right in the middle of the back ground, which looks terrible.
Also, the rest of the pic could do with a bit of lightening as it's too dark.
How would you go about editing this image to remove the patch of light?
I tried 2 techniques, firstly I used the burn tool to darken the patch of lightto match the rest of the pic.
The second approach I tried was to duplicate the layer. On the new layer I darkened the image so the patch was as dark as the rest of the poster in the first layer. Then I applied a layer mask and made only the newly darkened patch visible over the original pic to give an evenly lit poster.
How do you all remove shadows from backdrops/walls behind people's heads/bodies? I use the healing brush, but is there an easier, quicker way to do it? I have PSE4 and CS3.
I have used PS to edit my car photos for a while now, but there is one thing I still haven't mastered.
In the photo below I would like to remove the sun glare 'spots' you can see on the rear wheel arch (plus a few smaller ones also), but when I try to colour that area it never blends nicely with the rest of the paintwork.
I scanned a doument in Photoshop 7.0 I saved it as a PSD. I am trying to take some type out and put in type with a different font without changing the background.
