I'd like to rotate an image or selection just a bit to have a better ability to draw on it in Photoshop. However if I rotate it with the handles or rotate 90 degrees or whatever it changes the image and I'd like it to return in normal position after I'm finished drawing. I do not want the image to be rotated in the end, I only want to be able to draw at specific places and therefore it needs to be rotated.
I can create a rotating image with sevaral images in Photoshop? Much like a gif? Would this improve my page load time or would it be the same as loading a slideshow? Here is an example of what we wanna do
While Gimp is great, one of its biggest downfalls is the way in which it handles resizing and rotating images.
- Open a new image. - Draw / manipulate / play with your image. - Add layers, colors and images included.
Now, let's say you want to trace an image that's at the bottom of your layer stack. But that image is the wrong size, so you select the area you want to trace, drop its transparency down to 10%, and attempt to scale it to the size you've been sketching on the layer above it. The moment you attempt to scale / rotate it, it shoots back to 100% transparency, which is unintuitive because you can no longer see what's beneath the layer. In Photoshop, an area that is being scaled / rotated stays at the transparency you gave it.
I select a group of images that need rotating left or right and hold down, apple and bracket key, and although there are several images selected only the first image rotates.
I am working with LR4. How can I rotate a verticallt placed photo image to a horizontally place image within a cell? I know how to "rotate" a cell and I don't want to just "flip" the image.
How to make a rotating gif, sliding through multiple images but couldn't seem to find anything. I know that this is a pretty simple task and used to be able to do it but have forgot in the long while I haven't got to use Paint.Net.
I'm using Photoshop Elements 2.0 I also have Photoshop 6.0
I'm trying to learn how to rotate a .jpeg photo without it losing proportion. I have a photo of a Santa that I carved and took the photo with the camera turned 90°. I'd like to rotate the photo so I can use it as an Avatar on a forum I'm in. However, when I rotate the photo 90° the image becomes narrower and longer. I'd like to retain the original proportion but don't know how to do this.
Photoshop (I use CS1) is taking photos that have been saved vertically and opening them horizontally. If I rotate the photo back to vertical and save it again and then try to re-open it, it's horizontal again. Opening these same files with other image viewers and browsers shows that they are clearly vertical, yet PS continues to open them horizontally. I've been using Photoshop for years and never had this problem until the past couple of days, so I'm totally baffled. It's not like I just installed it. It's been working fine and never had this problem before yesterday. It also isn't doing it on older photos that I've saved, it's only new photos that I've saved in the past couple of days, so obviously it's doing something when I'm saving them that's causing it to rotate them automatically when re-opened.
When I try to open these exact same photos on my other comuter that has an older version of PS (7.0) this problem doesn't occur -- the photos are vertical, just as they should be.
I'm trying to flip and rotate a selection in Photoshop but it doesn't seem to be working. Here's what I'm doing:
1) Select what I want to flip/rotate.
2) Go to Select -> Transform Selection
3) Go to Edit -> Transform Path -> Flip Horizontal/Vertical or one of the rotate options.
4) Choose another tool so that it can ask me if I want to apply the transformation.
5) Say yes.
But at this point nothing happens to my selection. When rotating, I notice that the selection box itself gets transformed, but not the contents selected. How do I actually transform the contents?
how could I rotate a layer of many in a file to align it with the other layers ? To be clear, I am an astrophotographer & what I am doing is using the "Difference" mode to align layers. But the pictures are slightly rotated & I want to be able to rotate them very little to align the stars at the corners & those that are radially outwards from the center.
CS6 - Mac OS X 10.7.5. With Crop tool selected and placing cursor outside of crop area to get rotation handles, image is not rotated but crops in pro. How can I get back the rotation facility?
As the title says, lately my photoshop has been displaying rotated images with jagged/distorted edges. Now, I have not had this problem previously in the 8years I have been using photoshop, I am sure there is a simple fix to this, which I haven't really tried to fix. Any help would be apprecaited. I'm wondering if it is my monitor..?
Recently I have started to get in to photography with my digital camera. I have noticed that if you rotate a jpeg 90 degrees or whatever that the file size goes down.
I was given a disc with 75 pictures on it to deal with. The images are scans of old photos, and many of them are scans of a whole page from an album. There is handwriting on many of the photos/pages that I want to keep intact.
My big problem is this: Many of the photos/album pages were scanned in a way that makes it neccesery for me to rotate/flip them into proper position. When I rotate them, the handwriting comes out backward/mirrored.
I kind of recall running into this before on an unimportant somethingorother I was working on, but since it wasn't important I left it be.
ive got a problem ive been rotating my original image around in a circle to create a cool effect, yet i want to rotate it back around with the front but how do i do that and keep the same scale. i was measuring the top rotation of of a certain part on the car and bringing it to that each time to keep it the same but now i cant since its not symmetrical
I made a little profile image for myself to put on my site for when I redesign it. It looks fine. But the problem is, I have these 2 items of text proportioned so they look to be the sides of an invisible 3D rectangle... Problem is, I'm having trouble figuring out a way to make this 3d rectangle rotate so it will show one side (first text item) and then rotate to the next side (smaller item of text)...
The other 2 sides arent visible in this image, but they are the same as the 2 shown as to be a repeating animation. how I can achieve this either with Photoshop/ImageReady or 3D CG program?
I'm using a template for a cd sleeve. One half of it is upside down so to work on the other half I have to rotate the image. I will have to rotate the image a hundred times before the project is finished.
Does this affect the quality? If so, any workarounds for me?
When using the brush tool as a square, I frequently need to rotate it so that it can be much more effective in architectural shots, under peaked roofs, gables etc. It would also be great if the shape could be altered from a square to some other parallelogram to again, fit nicely inside similar shapes. Is there a way to at least, rotate the brush in CS3 and 4? While I am at it, how in blazes does one copy, cut and delete items in this forum? I highlight, right click and get insert asnd align selections. Also, I pick a type face and get Arial when I type.
Is there any way to get a brush texture to rotate as you use it? I was messing around with the grass brushes and I thought it'd be nice if there was some way to get them to rotate around in a circle, like if I wanted to add some grass looking stuff to a wreath.
I can't think of a way you could easily define how fast it rotates or anything like that but it'd be nice if there was a way to do it. The only way I've thought of so far is drawing the grass in a straight line and then using the polar coordinate filter to turn it into a circle.
im making a character for a computer fighting game, but ive hit a stumbling block.
click to enlarge
I want to rotate something thats already fairly pixelated (but its fine because the character is in constant motion, and fairly small) but rotating something 45 degrees makes it all blurry and whatnot. In this particualr frame of the characters animation, i am going to have him be still, so it will be very noticeable if i left him this way.
I know i cant expect perfect transformation because of the shape of pixels, but what is the best way to go about this so that the image comes out fairly crisp. If its not too much to ask you to explain it to me in detail because i dont know my way around photoshop too well.
The character itself is done, im simply adding sprites that make the character have unique introductions when he faces other characters. Anyways, if anyone is interested, heres what my guy looks like in action. As you can see, his pixels arent too noticeable, only in that frame that i posted earlier.
I'm in the process of creating a textual watermark for my photos in photoshop but have come across a big problem.
I am using the horizontaly text mask tool but I cannot rotate nor center (both horizontally and vertically) my text before turning it into a layer.
If IÂ rotate and center the text after putting it into a new layer it wont work since the text will move and leave the writing embossed onto the picture.
