Jul 3, 2009I am trying to put a smudged shadow in black/grey all the way around a font that is in a blue pattern. I need all the help anyone can give a new beginner with a burning desire to learn.

View 8 RepliesI have some random curves (already created) and I want to blur them just from one side to have the same blur distance and effect one the whole curve.
To more precisely describe what I need, I need to create gradient with direction of normal for every "point". The best example I have found so far are borders in Civilization IV game. Here are two examples:

As you can see, there is a solid curve, which gradually blends (i.e. alpha channel is lowered) till the gradient disappears. I have the solid curve and the question is, what would be the simplest way how to do this (the number of curves is around 100) gradient.
I just got PSE CS6 and the blur too will NOT work ....blur filters work, but not BLUR in the tools panel I have tried: unintstall/reinstall, updating, using it no a picture straight after opening it, duplicate layers, selecting an area and then blurring....flattening an image, every single different setting in the the blur tools menu bar NOTHING works. And everything I find about blur is the new blur filters....

View 5 Replies View RelatedAfter opening a file from another designer, this Chinese font has taken over my "omens – regular" font file. Anytime I use it, it converts to this font and each time I need to change a font weight, I must do it manually. As you can imagine, I use our company font all day so this slows me down quite a bit. Have you heard of this? It seems like some sort of font virus. I've researched removing it, yet can't seem to find the original font file to get rid of, which is even weirder."
We tried moving the font family to the trash, emptying the trash, rebooting the machine, and re-adding the font family and it still is happening.
I had posted in another thread about wanting to clean up a signature and make it look more font like. I tried that and it seemed to be pretty difficult due to the amount of random in a hand written signature.
So I think I'd like to approach this from the other direction. I have a font I like but I don't want it to look like the font (way too common). Is there a way to alter the font (not the entire font set or even to create a new font but just for a one word Logo)?
I'd ideally like to connect two of the letters and also modify the shapes of the letters just a bit.
Is there a way to specify a given system font that should be substituted for a given missing font? For example, the document I'm working with contains CourierStd and CourierStd-Bold which are not installed on my system. I would like to set Illustrator so that any time a document that contains these fonts is opened, Courier New and Courier New Bold are substituted automatically.

I am having difficulty with Gaussian Blur. I created a selection outline in an image and then filled it with black. I then selected Gaussian Blurr from the Filter Menu a set the radius to 100 and then deselected my previous selection.
In CS5 the edges faded into the background image however in CS6 the outline of the previous selection was still visible and the Gaussian Blur did not blend the selection as expected. Even ramping the radius up did not solve the issue as the outline still remained visible. how do i resolve this issue in CS6?
is there anyway that the blur can be taken out of this image?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI did a search for "surface blur slow" and got nothing... Which tells me I've got something set wrong or there'd be a big discussion with lots of screaming about a function that still isn't usable after three major releases...
Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. I7 - 920 running 3.8 GHz, 12GB of memory.
I remember in CS4 or 5 Surface Blur was essentially unusable, but isn't this the third major release of Photoshop with Surface Blur? Is there some specific set of preferences I need to set so this thing will be usable? I'm editing C300 images, so those are small at 12 megapixels (certainly compared to a D800) and it takes MINUTES do do anything. It can't STILL be this slow so I figure there's GOTTA be something I need to set differently... What's goin on?
I have used the motion blur filter, but it just does not look photographic. Does anyone know of any other 3rd party filters or techniques to make to the motion blur look more realistic. I know you can mask and erase parts. And, make a copy slightly transparent and offset.
It seems realistic motion blur has more solid highlights from end to end and soft shadows.
Also realistic motion blur only goes in one direction.
I thought someone would have a better motion blur filter with more options with highlight and shadow control. and some random waviness as if not going exactly in one direction

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm attempting to run a batch process, more or less i have to blur out a certain section of an image for about 360 images... I searched around for a bit and couldn't find the answer on these forums...
The images were all taken on a tripod, so the spot remains in the same spot.
I created a new action set, and i start recording the actions, it records me selecting the blur location, but does not record me actually performing the blur. I then save while still recording.
When i run this process on the image directory all the images (except the first one i edited and saved) remain without the blurred section.
Is there a way to do this, or do i have to blur each image individually?
I am looking for the Lens Blur filter in Photoshop CS3 and I simply cannot find it. I'm sure that it is just me overlooking things, but if anyone could point me in the right direction, you would be of great help.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI understand the basic concept of the motion blur, but what I'd like to do is create a picture where I have a vehicle that pretty much looks normal in front but from the mid-point back... it's a gradual blur that has enough color to make sure the viewer senses it is the car and not the background. I'd like the car to be separate from the background so I can experiment with backgounds blurred or not. I'm almost thinking you'd stretch the back half of the car with a gradual fade. Hope I'm explaining this correctly .
Another effect I'm not sure about is whether it would look good with staged, blurred layers so that the car is in varying levels of transparency but you see the full outline of the car and its like steps with a disolve to almost nothing on the left and in say 20 sequences... the last car on the right is fully rendered and highlighted.
I have taken a group photo of people in a park and I would like to blur the people in the background. I want to use the lens blur so the blurring looks like it was done through the lens.
I also want to avoid the image looking like that the sharp object was pasted on a blurred background especially around the hair on the subjects heads, which is why I am looking for a gradual blur.
how to perform a radial blur to "spin" the propeller. I'm familiar with the basics of radial blur, but I'm not able to create a realistic effect with this type of picture or one that's facing forward at an awkward angle. Am I better off deleting the actual propeller and creating my own, or is there some technique that I'm missing that would make a more realistic blur. I've created a clipping path and done a standard radial blur, but it just doesn't look right. I couldn't attach the image for some reason, so here's a linked image.
