I'd like to transition to .PNGs for my web graphics. I use a lot of transparent .GIFs for buttons and so forth. I know that .PNGs have transparency, but is there a way to do that in Photoshop with .PNGs?
View 4 RepliesI've been stuck with the task of creating textures for the people's clothes and etc. He sends me the main templates which are 24 bit pngs . and I have to edit them and then save them as 32 bit png . everytime I save them as pngs though they default to 24 bit is there anyway to change them to 32 bit ?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have to import a set of png's from Photoshop to Edge Animate. The actual source file is a Photoshop psd but I cannot import the psd into Edge so I have to painstakingly export each layer as a png and there are over 40 layers. Is there a way to take a layered Photoshop file and turn those layers into transparent pngs so when they import to Edge or another app the layers would remain intact but just as png's?
View 2 Replies View RelatedW/ 6 & I think 7, in order to create a transparent png I would have to save the file (single layer PSD w/ transparancy) and open it up in Image Ready, or click on the image ready button to send the image over. Then I would have to select PNG and optimize it, and it would save the transparency.
If I would try to do this all within PS, the transparent areas are saved as white, so the image was not transparent.
Do I still have to do this w/ CS, or can you really save truley transparent pngs within Photoshop now?
I have these two PNG pics. On Firefox (and possibly other browsers), the transparency looks fine. However, the transparency doesn't work on IE :
So, what do I do? JPEG isn't transparent. GIF lowers the quality by 1000%.
My team and I have been having issues with generate image assets not saving png files correctly. Photoshop has been saving them with the png extension, but the file has a white background like a jpg. Has there been in recent updates that may be causing this?

I am trying to edit a pic for an avatar and need them to have transparencies (i.e. no white space around the pic) and dont seem to be able to do it in PS Can it actually be done or do it have to go with gifs ??
When I save my .PSD files as .JPEGS the colour of the images change drastically.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI can get Photoshop CS2 to open up and work fine. Only, I cannot get it to open any files up. .jpgs, .pngs, and even .psds don't open. It says that there is a program error, and it doesn't say what that error is exactly.
I've tried "Open As" and tried to open the files as something different but that didn't work at all. I can open up images in ImageReady, yet I can't transfer them back to Photoshop to work on them. It also won't allow me to create a new canvas, (the same message pops up).
I recently moved, but I'm not sure if that would have caused any issue for Photoshop to act up like this. Everything else on the computer works fine and dandy. And it hasn't ever done anything like this before.
I'd rather not have to uninstall and then reinstall it,
I made a coloured square in PS. I saved it as a JPG. I saved it as a PNG. I saved it as a PSD. I dragged all three of these into InDesign. The JPG and the PSD were the same colour. The PNG was different. Now, before you all say that PNG's do funny things to colours, let me just say that the PNG was the ONLY one out of the three that matched a coloured square I made in InDesign with the same RGB values as what I made in PS. Both programs were using the same colour settings.
Just for interests sake, I tried the same experiment in Illustrator. Interestingly, I had no problems in Illie - all 3 (JPG, PNG and AI) files were the same colour as each other AND the same colour as the test square in InDesign.
I design graphics for Scrapbooking kits which I am beginning to sell and need both JPGS and PNGS (because of transparency) for these kits. AND I need the colour to be consistent. I also design in Illustrator (where there appeared to be no problems), but obviously there are some things that are simply not possible in Illustrator.
I have been doing so much research trying to figure this out. Either im missing something or its not possible.29571-saving-layers-seperate-files-one-persistent-layer
I ran across that post on this forum and that is exactly what i want to do (at end of post)Ive tried the LayerSaver jsx but it only allows selected layers and top layer and bottom background.
my bottom has to be transparent. I have an icon set that has a bottom group (that i can merge to layer) and a top group (that i can also merge to layer) and the middle contains my icons.
Every time I try to use VPE, the resulting mesh is fine (the dxf), but the PNGs do not match the drawn planes at all.
For example, I'll use a file from wikimedia. (all images re-compressed for the forum ) I draw the right wall, make sure it is blue, then pull the floor.Pull the floor and the left wallPull the back ground (hard to see in the compressed image, but it is there).Pull the ceiling.
The completed planes. Right wall was drawn, remaining were each pulled out the of the previous plane. All blue. Entire image is covered.Importing the VPE into After Effects CC. Note the wonky textures.Here are the actual textures (original PNGs compressed into JPEG for posting).
This is the background piece, note how the section of the image doesn't align at all with the plane I drew.I've successfully used the Vanishing Point filter extensively in previous versions of Photoshop. I'm currently using Photoshop CC on OSX 10.8.4 running on a 15" PowerBook Retina.
I've tried the following to no avail:differing JPEGsdrawing the floor firstdrawing the first surface counter-clockwise and clockwise : ) ensured all planes are bluedisabled graphics acceleration under prefererencescompleted uninstalled Photoshop and reinstalled with clean performance/preference settings (did not import any previous settings).removed the "Adobe Photoshop CC Settings" folder as well.Tried exporting a DXF, again mesh looks great, textures are wrong.

At work I use Photoshop, but at home I have started using GIMP. One problem I constantly have is the size of pngs. How do you reduce the size of pngs?
I have 400KB png, when I save the same image at home in GIMP as jpg it becomes smaller, but if I save it as png it becomes about 2MB - this is huge compared to photoshop
If I use the save for web plugin, the results are the same for jpgs, but if I save as 24bit png the image suddenly becomes 2.5MB. Why are PNGs in GIMP so large?
PS: I use windows vista, in case this matters.
I'm trying to create images of pairs of cards from png images of a deck of playing cards, basically I would like to combine two cards into a single image, i.e. have the A clubs with the King clubs for AcKc (attached), I would like to do this for all starting hands if you're familiar with poker (AA,KK..72 etc)
Lastly, I would like to change the color of the diamonds and clubs suits from red to blue and black to green respectively, without affecting the black border.

I have a problem with Illustrator CS6: anytime I try to export file to PNG, it saves a file of exactly 102 kb and the file is essentially empty. Is it a bug in Illustrator.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI just bought a website template and there are certain files that won't open in gimp like psd's and even some png's and jpg's (though the ones I need most do). My girlfriend was able to open the psd's in photoshop. Anyway to get all these files to open in gimp?
I've attached the psd, the png and jpgs wont attach (maybe because they are tiny 70 byte files that dont matter). (Im using Windows 7 64 bit)
I have a folder with about 600 transparent PNGs that I use in my photomanipulation projects in Gimp... about 100 of those are the most used of the 600.... would it be a good idea or a bad idea to make Gimp brushes out of those PNGs? or should I just stick to using transparent PNGs via copy and paste?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIt used to be that I could take any ,jpg file, then save it as a .png so that I would have a transparent background in order to render the pic. Now, for whatever reason, when converted the background remains white. What setting has changed that I can no longer get a transparent background after the .png conversion? Gimp V. 2.6.8.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a few large pngs that i want to cut up into 192x192 pixel boxes and save all separately. Is there anyway to do this automatically? I could crop each block but that seems like a lot of work.

Is there a way, to export grouped items out as a png file? I got like 19 artboards with a lot of groups on each. All these groups has to be png files, so I can animate them in After Effects.
Right now I am copy/pasting the groups into a new illustrator file saying "save for web and devices" but it takes to long time if there is an easier way
I have made a layout for an iPhone app in Illustrator. When I export an artboard with a size of 160 x 90 px to png with 326 ppi, the size ot the image I get out of it is 724 x 408 px with 326 ppi. Also if I copy and paste the object to Photoshop it has the same growth.
I'd like to make pixel-sharp design, so what is the best way to do it?
I use Photoshop X3 to create buttons for a webpage. The buttons are saved as PNGs.This works fine for Firefox, Chrome, IE9. But in IE8 and Safari, the buttons are not displayed, instead IE8 displays a red X.
I tried to open the PNGs in PHP, but I get the error: gd-png: fatal libpng error: Too many IDAT's found in ...image.php...It seems that the PNG exported by Photopaint are not standard-conform! I installed the 2 service packs for X3.
I'm using Photo & Graphics Designer 7. Recently I've had the problem of the program no longer exporting PNG images I create with transparent backgrounds. They all have a box containing whatever color background I'm using at the time. I am selecting only the object I want to export.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a script that allows me to export custom views (created via "View > New View") into separate png files.
I've already found some great scripts that export Layers or Artboards but nothing for Views.
It seems Illustrator's "Views" are the closest equivalent to Photoshop's Layer Comps.
I have two pictures.
I would like the two pictures to blend in the middle from left to right.
The picture on the left will be sharpe on the left side but fade/transparent by the time it reaches the middle.
The picture on the right will be sharpe on the right side but fade/transparent in the middle.
I would think I need a gradient transparency (you always have to use a color)
I see pictures like this all the time, but can not seem to find the correct feature or combinations of features.
I wanna make a pattern of some sort of all my favorite Pokémon, and of me in either a random collage or repeatable pattern out of a bunch of transparent PNGs. how can I obtain this objective in Gimp?
View 7 Replies View RelatedTill X3 Photo-Paint opened and saved transparent PNGs as a seperate image with attached mask.Example:I have an image and load a B/W mask into it.
When I save this as PNG and reload it in X3, Photo-Paint displays again exactly what I have just saved:
However when I open this same PNG in X6, the image and mask get merged into a single object:
It's in effect doing automatically a "create object from selection" function and discards then the background.Why? I can't work with the full background image anymore, because the transparent parts are missing, and the mask is also gone. Is there no way to open the full PNG, without any merging and deleting of masks, just the way X3 was doing it?Also, the only way to save a transparent PNG in X6 is to check "save only selected objects"? When I don't check this, but still check "transparency" in the PNG export dialogue, then the mask won't be saved nonetheless.
In Coreldraw there is a transparency tool which allows you to merge one photo into another - not like layers on top of each other, but overlapping along the edges, so that the outer edges of each pic are unaffected, and the central area is like a mixture of each pic. You could do something similar in Photoshop elements using the Gradient tool, but the gradient tool in CS2 doesn't seem to work the same way.
At the moment, I'm having to join/blend two pics in Coreldraw, save the result as a jpeg, and then open the resultant file in CS2 to continue working.
In Coreldraw the little tool is called 'Transparency'-'Fountain' I can't believe CS2 can't do something similar.
How do I make a background transparent? For example I made a document with just my name...Kim. I don't want there to be a rectangular/square or ANY kind of background...just that word, nothing around it, nothing behind it. How do I do that? Before you answer...
I've tried it by putting the document settings at "background>transparent". But when I came across it in my documents folder, it had a background around it. I've thought about selecting the word, and putting it onto a new, "transparent" document, but it doesn't seem to me that would help if it doesn't work when you set the background to transparent on the ORIGINAL and having it not turn out. Don't know what to do??
how do i take a picture that has a background color and make the background transparent. or copy, cut the pic and transfer to a transparent background. i need to make some renders for my site.
