Photoshop :: Transparency To Not Transparency In Photo
Sep 10, 2006
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 open a GIF that has a transparent background, resize it and save it back. At no time is there any prompt re transparency but it no longer has a transparent background. Why is that? And, how do I ensure that transparency is maintained?
1. It's not the Lock button on the Objects docker.
2. It's not the wine glass shown.
I don't really need it but it would be nice to have such a button. I can mimic it by "Create Mask from Object". That works in the same way. I'm just wondering if Lock Transparency got lost forever.
I have been meaning to cover this in one of the Workbooks and maybe some day I will remember.
I cloned the original photo, applied a Circular, Stained Glass transparency to the clone, moved the center of the transparency over the Datura blossoms, reduced the diameter, and reversed the settings.
In a few seconds I dramatically changed the photo.
I cloned the second photo of dramatic smoke from the recent wildfire, applied a vertical Linear, Stained Glass transparency to the clone, starting at the dark portion of the bottom of the cloud at 0% and ending just above the mountain tops at 100%.
Again, in less than the time it would take to open Photoshop, I had dramatically enhanced an already dramatic photo.
I used Graphics & Photos 2013, I update the software yesterday and if I save my job as PDF, the transparency done on a picture is inverted.Currently I removed the transparency but it is not the solution.Issue appear only when I create a PDF file. By creating a JPG file it works.
how to use PNG with transparency as "photo frame" for bitmap (photo) in Xara Xtreme Pro v5?
I'm try to design pages for photo book in Xtreme. I have set of files in PNG format as "frames" for photos. For example, I attach one (14_v.png) to this message. In another editor I can use them as "masks" for photos - in second attach (capture.png) you can see on left - usual photo, on right - photo with mask as photo frame. How I can make same effect in Xara Xtreme? I try to use different modes, substract/add shapes and other - but no luck.
Why is the Transparency command window in the Clone Tool property bar so narrow? By comparison, the window for the Feather command next to it is twice the size. The reason for the moan is because my display is set to 110% as I like to see slightly larger text but I've had to go down to 100% because I can only see one complete digit in that tiny little window.
Is there any way to make it a touch wider so I can see two digits without a problem?
I am running the 32 bit trial of X6 and the transparent vignette bitmap effect no longer works. I have converted the bitmap to CMYK transparent and back to not transparent several times in CorelDraw X6 and it still does not work. I have event tried making the bitmap an RGB transparent background and it still does not work.
Then when I click "Edit Bitmap..." it DOES open as a bitmap with a transparent background but the vignette function in Photo-Paint X6 does not work with the transparency either. It forces a background color. There is no longer an easy way to fade the edges of a photo.
Why do you always manage to break stuff that was working Corel?
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.
I'm using PNG alpha-blending for some of the graphics on my website. As most of you already know, IE isn't the best at rendering PNGs with alpha. Code:
I am realtively new to PhotoShop. Using 7.0 on Windows XP
I have a image, white background with an outlined letter C. I want to make the outside white transparent, but the inside of the letter C to remain white. Is this easy? I created a new image with a transparent background, which doesn't seem to be working.
When creating images to be used on the web there are some where I wouldn't like the white of the background visible (a transparent background).
I've tried deleting the background layer, reducing the fill and opacity to 0% and the background eraser, when I save the images there is no background visible but when previewed on the internet they appear!?
I want to make a very simple sig, text only, no effects or anything. Basically, I just don't like the available fonts that I can use for an html sig on the board I post on ;p Anyways, I save the file as a .gif with transparency and when I tested it out in an HTML file, it showed up fine, but that was only with a white background. When I changed the background color to anything other than white, the text had white pixels around it. Could anyone give some pointers on how to get rid of those pixels around the text? It wouldn't be a problem if the board background color was white, but it's blue. I also tried saving as a .png, same result.
I am creating a CD label using Nero. I simply want to use Photoshop to save an image with a transparent background so that I may import it onto my label. However, everytime I bring the image into Nero (or any other program), it has a white background that I am unable to get rid of. How do I save a Photoshop file with a transparent background so that it may be used in other programs?
if I use CS 4 x64 or x86 I can't save an alpha channel to the PNG format. It does support alpha, right?I opened a tga file containing the alpha channel save to png and it is gone.The same happens if I choose "Save for web and devices."

i want this cus im doing a site where the backgorun changes autom.. , so i only need the word/object to be seen without the background..
I did a forum search for GIF transparency, and couldn't find a thread initially that told me how to add transparency to a GIF.
I have this image with 2 colors (orange/white) I want to make the orange transparent. I did FILE > SAVE FOR WEB... and selected the MATTE to the ORANGE color, and reduced the GIF to 2 colors.
What else do I need to do to make that orange transparent?
I'm having a problem with animated GIF transparencies and photoshop. We've been having "halo" problems with some of our rendred images (transparencies) so I've been testing all of the animated GIF's in photoshop after compling them in Fireworks. The GIF's in fireworks look fine...full transparent background. But when I load it into photoshop the "excess canvas" background (beyond the limits of the image) are completely white. Everything within the boundaries of the image are transparent. I can solve this by trimming the canvas but need to retain the full canvas size for placement purposes.
HELO ALL IM A NOOB AND WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE COULD HELP ME OUT? I HAVE TWO SOLID IMAGES BUT I NEED ONE TO GO INFRONTE OF THE OTHER BUT THE PICTURE IN THE BACK STILL NEEDS TO BE SHOWING CAN ANYONE HELP ME?
I want to make a gradient go from light blue to dark blue so I adjust the lower first stop to light blue and the second lower stop to dark blue. Â 1. I do not want any transparency within the gradient, so do I just leave the stops on top in their default locations on the ends? Â 2. Any example of how transparency in a gradient can be used?
Using Photoshop CS5 on a mac OS 10.6.8  I scanned a black and white painting of bamboo leaves on an Epson scanner as a black and white (bitmap) image, saving it as a TIF file. The painting was compose of solid black leaves on white paper background. If I Place that image directly into an InDesign document I am working on, the white background of the image is automatically made transparent — which is exactly what I need in this case. If, however, I open the image in Photoshop to manipulate it, the transparent background becomes solid white, and I have to change the file to grayscale to edit it and erase the white background. Is there a way to import the TIF into Photoshop with it's transparent background intact?  Marc
When you merge two identical layers (with solid black-filled shapes) and with, say, 30% opacity both, the resulting layer will be a layer with 100% opacity but with 30% transparent black-filled shapes. How will you make this 100% opaque?
i'm having trouble rasterizing an .ai file.The source of this file is a pdf file that was probably not meant for print. I extracted only the fragment that's needed to describe the problem.As you can see, the transparency doesn't rasterize well (right image).I rasterized this CMYK .ai in photoshop CS5 with CMYK mode so it would preserve overprint (although RGB rasterizing renders badly too). Â such files have, for what i know, always rendered correctly in the past.There are no spotcolors in the file.My problem is not getting this specific file rendered correctly (i can think of some workarrounds, like first flattening in Illustrator). My problem is finding and fixing the cause, as our scripted workflow heavily depends on this pdf to photoshop rasterizing feature. URL....
