Photoshop :: Turning Textured Portrait Into Non-textured Photograph
Mar 10, 2012
I have spent the last 2 days trying to take a portrait taken between 1950 and 1970 and printed on "Kodak extra life" photo paper made to resemble a canvas painting. I took several photos of this portrait using a Canon 60D EOS. Unfortunately, the portrait looks like it was literally printed on flattened bubble wrap. The Gausian blur can't do enough. Even when combined with ALL of the noise filters AND the sharpen, unsharpen masks. Curves and levels, hues and saturations, radius, inverting, working the image in RAW...
I have tried all available forms posted on the web and I have even tried a few other things just to see what would happen. Gimp with fft failed right along with other programs claiming to be able to do this task. I spent the entire night recoloring pixels in an attempt to get this portrait to lose the bubble wrap and not be so blurred you could go cross eyed looking at it. Unfortunately, when you zoom in on the pixels you can see what could be random brush marks in the "Kodak extra life" paper printed portrait. I am stumped with this one and the web does not have a lot of info regarding this type of image.
The portrait belongs to a friend whose mom died. As they were going through her things they found this photo of her when she was younger than they can recall her being. It is the only one they found. It is stained and color faded, no problem to fix that part of it... I am not sure it can be transformed from "bubble wrap" but I will keep trying until something can change it. I have ADOBE Photoshop CS5 running on windows 7.

How do they produce a rough textured background like it this image...

Am I right in assuming some noise filters need be applied?

I would like to make a leather textured background. I know there is a way of doing this in Photoshop incorporating seamless Tiles. Is there anyone that might be able to walk me through the process or have any suggestions on how to develop a texture from scratch in Photoshop.

Whenever making long strokes with ANY textured brushes (where the "Textures" feature is in use via Brush Presets), I get a horrible, horrible lag when making long brush strokes...Any other brush is fine, as long as its not textured. I have turned off OpenGL, have updated PS to 12.1, using two scratch disks, etc etc.
My computer is pretty beastly as I built it for high performance gaming (8 gigs RAM, Win7 Ultimate, SSD/HDD combo, Nvidia Geforce 560 TI, etc) so I am at a loss as to why I am experiencing this issue... I even tried rolling back my Wacom driver, but then I realized this doesn't matter since the lag still occurs when using a mouse as well. I could obviously un-tick the Textured feature, but that's not what I'm going for.
Strangely enough, I never experienced this problem when I was working on CS5 on a Vista computer with much less fancy parts in it. Could it be an issue with Windows 7 or CS5.1...?

I was pretty much expecting to see a Ground Plane object in the scene explorer, but no such beast exists. My spirits were briefly lifted by finding a Ground Plane section in the Environments palette, but that does not allow you to attach texture maps to the ground plane, only a solid color.
If such a thing doesn't exist (for shame, Adobe), any quickest way to create a textured, infinite ground plane (imagine, for example, a tiled floor or a wooden floor that extends all the way off into the horizon)?

I am just facing a challenge — I need to convert black T-shirt into whithe, but the fabric is textured. See the attached IMGs:
I tried several things, but the best result I got looks somehow close to this disaster:
Despite strong Curves Adjustment layer, there seems to be not a chance to get some contrast.
See how looks similar shirt from a slightly different material — just to get a brief idea:
Inversion will not work because of shadows, Shadows/Highlights does not work much. Converting from White to black is much more easier & almost perfect — because of this, there should be a reverse way…

I'm seeing a lot of poster art these days online, and many of them have a really nice textured effect to the color fills. It's not your typical Photoshop filter, however.[URL]...
How is this done, do you think? A custom brush of some kind? Or load a selection and mask the color?I can't find the exact poster right now (that figures!) but sometime this texture looks almost like poor ink coverage, or a bad Zerox copy (low toner.)

When I apply a material like brick to an object, it renders grey. Other materials like glass and metal work fine. For some reason materials with textures/bitmaps just render grey.

I have a character that's textured, and I'd like to make adjustments to the mesh. I would like to select a Vertex on the right half of the mesh, and the Vertex on the left side would also get selected. So when I move it, the opposite moves in the "mirrored" direction.
In Softimage it's simple; I apply a Symmetry Map to the model, choose the Symmetry Mode, and it works. How do you set that up?

I want to modify a photo of an embroidered patch of my club's logo to make the texture appear simply smooth, not embroidered. Unfortunately, we have lost the original artwork that was used to make the embroidered patch, but we have nice sharp photos of the patch itself. The photos are in both GIF and JPEG format.
I've found info on how to add texture, but I want to do opposite -- smooth out the texture of the embroidered patch, so I can use it as a logo in print (in a newsletter, stationery, etc.) and on the web and in e-mails.
Is there a way to "de-texturize" an object in a photo? And is it possible to de-texturize the entire patch, or would it be necessary to do each color separately?

I have been using Maya 2011 for a while now with relatively few real problems.
Recently I followed a modeling tutorial and everything was going great until it came to the application of materials and rendering. I applied materials of my own design and when I click on the Textured view icon in the perspective window, Maya freezes and nothing works...I have to open the task manager and terminate the process and re-start Maya.
It does not happen with other models or animations that I work on, just this one. I have looked at all my settings and there is nothing unusual happening as far as I can see!
If I render the model, it works fine in: Maya Software (No problem - looks great!), Maxwell Render (fine but very slow) and Maya Vector (Fine but obviously not what I want!).
If I try to render using Maya Hardware or VRAY it freezes up Maya and I have to terminate the program as before.
Once again other models and projects render fine in Maya Harware or VRAY

Is it better to texture multiple meshes of a same object as opposed to unwapping and texturing just one mesh and then duplicating the object over and over?
Fox example, I'm working in Maya and I'm modeling a grocery store. And let's say I'm about to texture an isle with bagged snack chips. Do I unwrap every UV from every bag of chips and texture them individually or is it better to unwrap and texture just one bag (mesh) of chips and then duplicate object multuple times to get the whole isle of chips.

When I turn on textures in the viewport, the display of some objects becomes really weird. Most times not even the whole model is affected but only parts of it. My first guess was that the noramls were corrupted, but turning on One-sided lighting and displaying the normals showed that they were absolutely okay.
It doesn't matter which render engine is used (Viewport 2.0, Default or High Quality) or whether the material is a Maya or MentalRay shader.
In the screenshot, only the head of the character is showing the artifacts. The used material is a Blinn with only the Diffuse (32-bit EXR; painted in Mudbox) plugged in for now.
How do I get rid of these artifacts?

Today I downloaded a trial version of PSE. This means of course that I'm new to the game. I can follow a step-by-step guide though. Here's what I'd like to do: I've taken a dozen photos of an actor with a green screen as a background. Is there a way that I can chroma-key out the green and put in another color, like gray or perhaps a textured off-white?

I'm selecting faces to be textured in the UV editor. The red faces in the pic. The more faces I select (ctrl + click) the more the yellow box grows. Is this normal? I don't recall seeing that behaviour before. I thought it was just supposed to select the extents of the faces..?

I'm using Xara Xtreme Pro 5.1.2
I have a portrait photograph that is fine in most respects but there is a shiny patch (light reflection) on the forehead and on the nose.
Is there an effective way to remove or tone down the shine without interfering with the rest of the photograph?

I am looking to extract natural noise from a photographs material and create a black and white layer out of it, but I am new to photoshop and unsure how to proceed with this.
For example, here is a photograph of a hard plastic gun.
I have seen on forums where users will find a good reference image and use it to create a new black and white noise picture utilizing the reference.
For instance the hard plastic noise from the gun, might look like this once extracted and done correctly.
how to produce something such as this?

This is something that I've been able to do without a problem in the past and now something has happened where it no longer works. When I insert a picture either into a new blank file or onto another picture and then click on the new picture to resize, it appears that the tool sees only the original document and not the photograph that I've just dragged onto it. It does not show the dotted line selection or the resize handles. Also when I try to use the resize menu option in either canvas or image option it changes the whole document and not the new photograph.
