View 5 Replies View RelatedI've been using GIMP for years now, even professionally for the last year. There's one thing I still haven't ever done, and would love to do: designing a new interface for GIMP from scratch. I'm just not sure how to go about it.
I could of course take the images of another theme and edit them as I see fit, and publish the final result as a new skin. But I don't want to do that - I want to do a proper job and design one from scratch.
The graphical part is not an issue. It's the technical part I'm not sure about, like for example:- how do I make sure I get all the necessary image files? Is there an encrypted theme file or something I have to unzip or whatever?- are there any additional programs I need to use to do that?- same for putting it together: Do I need to compile the images into a theme file, and if so, what program do I need for that?
I have found the theme legends on the documentation tool palette, but I was wondering how the themes are assigned to the individual spaces? I would have expected additional spaces to be loaded into the file at the time the legend was brought in.
Is the active connection between the legend and the individuals spaces? or is the legend only a static representation?
Will i need to create these space types or are they hidden within the Design Center or a catalog?
I have been annoyed with trying to create a theme and controller image to use with Xpadder.
Rules: Controller image and theme must be made to fit together and must be created the same size as the images belowthey must be seperate pictures and the buttons should have places to go.
This probably means very little sense to you if you dont have xpadder, and possibly learn a little bit more about xpadder in order to make the theme and controller image. Also xpadder does not support transparency.The template for a theme and an image of my controller (it has four trigger buttons, 2 on each side)

I have 6 jpeg photos, and i bring them all into one. All photos are named different. After reading the forums, the next step is FILE>SAVEAS. Next, you select COMPUSERVE.gif. Once I select that, I have no idea where to go.

I want to create a droplet in CS6 that I can drag lots of images to and simply have it resize those images and save them to a new folder. I create an action to change the image size and save the images to a folder as a .jpg. I then create a droplet based on this action. I tried several times to drag images onto the droplet, though as it goes through the images it prompts me with questions as it is saving the images, and it never actually saves the optimized images to a folder.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI created a new file, set my sizes and all that, 8bit and began...I literally am using the line tool to make a straight line vertically, I then want to use my brush at 2pixels and 100 hardness to "stroke path", I set my brush then select path selection tool and right click on the line, but "stroke path" is grayed out? I really don't understand. I am following these directions from a website on how to create postcard back.
this is what i was following:
Create a new document with the same exact specifications used earlier for the front. Grab the Line tool and draw a straight vertical line shorter than the postcard’s height, and then place it slightly off center. Set your brush to a size of one or two pixels with a hardness of 100 percent. With the Path Selection tool, right click on the line and choose “Stroke Path.”
I just installed a fresh CS5, we are using some scripting that's installed on 5 other CS5 machines and this never happened before - when files are being saved (using 'save as', overwriting the original) this particular setup is saving xml files too!? See below

I have also tried creating a new layer naming it putting it between my copied layer and background but once again when flattening the image it doesn't keep the lines. I'm using CS4 .
I have been using photoshop for years. recently everytime i click create new file or open existing one, when i do, nothing opens. I can see the layers but i cannot see the workspace. Its like its invisible. How do i fix this? I am woking on a mac book pro and bought cs5.1 last spring.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am running Windows 7. I created an Action in Photoshop CS6 that includes placing a rectangle and a logo on the bottom right hand corner of my images and then centered in the middle of the rectangle is text of the event (Event name, Location, Date). After creating everything, I flatten the image, resize it down to a size reasonable for the web, then I save the image to a folder, close the document and click on the STOP button in the Actions panel.
Afterwards, I go into File>Automate>Batch and choose the Action that I just created. In running the action, I notice that the text that I placed into the rectangle on my document is now scaling down to a considerably much smaller size than what I had it set to.

View 4 Replies View RelatedSo I have been trying to create a gif from a video I went to File > Import > Videos to Layers but all the layers always end up white instead of showing parts of the video like in screenshot below:
It showed the video and played it the first time I tried it but I'm pretty sure I accidentally clicked on something that won't let it show the video anymore and I can't figure out how to undo do it.
I'm messing around with a project for fun and I'm wondering if any of you guys know a great way to make a realistic bar code/UPC image with the thick and thin, black, vertical lines aligned up horizontally? I tried this approach into creating one, but it just wasn't working for me. Here's the method I tried to use (in case some of you have a similar method).
1) Layer 1, start with a white background (hope I didn't lose anyone with this step ;P).
2) I added a Noise filter with the settings of Monochromatic and Gaussian Blur at 400% on Layer 1.
3) Then, I applied the Motion Blur filter 90 Degrees and had the distance set to 999 pixels.
4) Then, I tried to do some adjusting with Curves to brighten it up because before this point, it was just a black and gray image.
And this is where I came close, but no go. I haven't been able to turn the gray into a solid white and I tried using the Magic Wand tool to just select the gray areas and fill them in with white, but that didn't help cause it was blurry and it wasn't all one shade of gray. Any help or if you know another method is doing this will be helpful. Yah, I could just use the line tool and just create thick and thin vertical lines all the way across, but just wondering if anyone else had a better method.

I've been asked by a friend to create a CD cover and inlay for a his band, something I haven't done before (i've only done web-design until now).
I've been reading up online about how to create them and I've been getting nowhere, fast! I read that a CD cover should be 120mm x 120mm, but this appears to be HUGE on my small monitor screen and I have to zoom out in order to see what I'm doing!

I am trying to do the following:
I have a bunch of huge 5.3 megapixel pix on disc. I want to create an action that:
1. opens all the pictures on the disk
2. resizes them
3. applies USM
4. then saves them to a different folder on my HD
I tried to create the above action and it goes through the steps but does not resize them. What seems to happen is that it opens the first picture and performs the command but subsequent files opened do not resize etc..
