Photoshop :: Getting Tool To Sample Photos Texture And Apply To Another Photo?
May 12, 2012
I am bringing into an old photo which is in fact a scan of a printed photo, an item selected from a recently taken photo and I need it to look as if it belongs to the old photo.
The immediate difference is in the texture, best shown with a photo here. try viewing it also by moving head laft and right ! I can even see a regular pattern of something within the cruder pixels. I could take days to try out various filters, it may be it requires a combination of filters and given the variables involved the chances of hitting upon the right settings and the right filters is remote and it would take days. Is there a way of sampling the recipient photo and then applying the effect it sees to the cleaner looking modern photo ?
I come across this situation all the time when one photo, even a modern digicamera one, taken by someone else, differs from another photo, unless the 'textures' can be made to match, the added in pics stick out like a sore thumb ! A photo with jpg artefacts receiving a cleaner photo is one common occurrence, try geting the cleaner one to look very jpegged, not easy.
Im fiddling around with textures and want to apply a brick texture to a face. The texture itself is a frontal one without perspective, but I want it to follow the lines and perspective of the face. Additionally, I want the texture to have depth and some good lighting to it.
No I know a little about displacement maps, bump maps, specular maps etc, which ones to use in this case..
I'm about 3 months and many hours of tutorials into Premiere ProCC, Audition CC, and Encore CS6. Apparently the nifty dynamic links from PPro and Audition CS6 no longer work with encore, as encore was not upgraded to CC. So,
I want to sample color from an original Photoshop image, and create an Encore menu color set, so that my menu buttons, etc. are colored to match the main photo image in the menu. Is there an eyedropper kind of tool in Encore that would let me sample the color from the image, and then apply that to color swatches in the Encore button layers?
I would like to apply my own texture to the model i've done into 3ds max 2012, but I only know how to apply a texture from 3ds max... I have looking for tutorials, but they do not speak of how to apply a texture witch is not in a library, or, at least, how to create your own library..
I 'm trying to make a can of coca-cola in autocad 2013 but i can't. The texture never fit right on the model. How can i apply the texture correctly to make the can.
Basically what I'm wanting to do is curve the text around the image...which I already know how to do...but have the texture and color of the image its around be applied to the text. I've included the file.
CS4.Windows XP When I put text into my image (name and copyright) the character window (tool bar) does not let me select a color. For exampled I will type my name and year on my picture.
 Then I select the text, open character tool, select color and then I change the color of my text to something in my picture. For some reason this quit working on my XP system (but works on my Vista system - laptop). Is there a simple fix for this ?
it used to work fine. now, when i am using a light sample, and then move to a dark colored part of the image, and try to select a sample from there, i can't select a dark sample. when i try, i get the previous light sample. ??
I vacuumed my keyboard while in photoshop... nice move, I know. Anyway I got almost everything back to normal execpt...
while using the brush tool and I alt click to cahnge the color to the new sampled color but it now goes to the background color instead of foreground color. It also goes to background color when I use the regular peye dropper.
how to shut that off or change it so it goes to the foreground instead of background.
LR 4.3 down samples my photos when I export a slideshow to pdf or video. I've tried 1080p,720p, 960x540, 720x480 for video. I can only H.264, nothing else. I use an ID plate (photo frame) and music. Everything works fine when I play the slideshow in LR.
I am using PSC6 and the clone tool stamp will not paint from the sample area. After holding down the alt key to obtain sample it will not paint. I can hold the sample over the area to paint & see the cloned area visually, but it will not paint when I click. however if I click many multiple times I get a faded clone.
I followed exactly step-by-step showing in the program. After compile the DLL register the registry, run IV, I couldn't see the AddIn SampleToolbar in the Panel bar.
I'm sort of new to illustrator. The first problem: [IMG] [URL] ....[/IMG]
The red arrows indicate where I attempted to sample from.
I first tried to sample while in normal mode (the window on the left) but my color picker (on the left) did not change, it instead remained light beige rather than the darker fill's tone I was sampling. Same issue on the right, wherein I did the same thing except in isolation mode instead of normal mode.
I used the sample color tool from live paint (live paint + ctrl + left click on the desired area). However, the normal eyedroper tool (I) produces the same result (i.e. it does not work either). The color I am attempting to sample is a fill within a shape that is cropped by the 'draw inside' function. Why Illustrator is not allowing me to sample the fill color.
Additional question: is there any way to make a shape without lines? Choosing transparent lines achieves an visually identical effect but I was curious as to whether this was possible without choosing transparent lines.
When you're editing a gradient within the shape (as opposed to in the Gradients palette), is there any way to use the eye dropper tool to sample an existing color? In-shape gradient editing (or whatever Adobe calls it) is useless without the eye dropper.
Is it possible yet to do this? I'd like to pick several points on the screen and get the color from each spot separately.Current System: i3 3.07ghz, 3gb ram, Windows 7 32 bit with all updates and X6
I have a photo (attached) and wish to do two things with it. I hope a) to emphasise both the earthenware texture of the vase and its wooden background to give the image some contrast and b), to recolour the brown fence in royal blue. I have tried to do this using the eyedropper tool and then Image | Adjustments | Replace colour, but because the vase itself is coloured in a shade of brown I find that in addition to blue replacing brown as the fence colour, it also replaces it as the colour of the vase.
So, I somehow need to 'lift' the vase from the image, then recolour the fence in isolation, and then put the vase back into the photo - but I am not sure how to do that.
I know how to upload the 3D tool and put the texture on it but when I do the texture is too light. I don't know why it's not appearing the same color as the original file. I am not sure if I am not loading it right. I had CS5 and I am loading it the same way. Well...as similar as the software will allow. This one is so different.
I can no longer 'apply a tint (one of the effects is the editor) to a photo.When I select one and click APPLY, I get a popup window that says:
Plus members get online services, artwork and movie themes....Please sign in to upgrade to Plus.
Well, I use to be able to use this feature and never got that window before.
DO I NOW HAVE TO PURCHASE A PLUS application to supplement my PSE8?
Also, when I try to sign in with the same Adobe ID that I use to get into this forum, I get another popup window that says:
Photoshop.com services are currently unavailable. Please try again later or check your network connection. Error 400.
I thought my password might be wrong, so I also used the 1st popup window to request that it be sent to me... and I got a message that says:An email has been sent to you .... but I never get the email.
I just finished editing 300 photos and im not sure how but selected apply all on a preset to all my photos, I try hitting cancel and undo but it wont stop changing all my weeks worth of editing.
New to Illustrator and design in general. We are looking to update or re-create our company logo and wondering how to take a photo that i can then use to create a texture. We flame cut and grind steel plate for the tool and die industry, mold shops and machine shops. Our current logo can be seen at [URL] ... was created by a company no longer involved with us.
Anyway I would like to take some photos of steel plate and use it to create textures for the new logo similar to the current one. I took a few with a digital camera and then sent them to a logo design firm, which we may or may not use and when they applied the texture to some of the logos it is out of scale and way to large. examples can be seen at [URL] .... you will notice some design use gradient silver instead of my image I sent and I have been told that the powers that be want a texture taken from one of our ground plates.
So now i have thought about trying to create a logo or at least a number of "B" designs that ahve a properly scaled texture that I can use as a basis and submit to the design firm.
How can one remove a raised texture pattern from a scan of the original photo?
Have several wedding photos scanned into PS Elements that were printed by the pro, photography studio on a raised pattern paper. How to remove the honey comb type pattern so that the picture canbe printed flat on glossy color photo paper?
I'm currently creating slide show with about 1,000 photos. BTW, I need to apply automate pan and zoom feature on all 1,000 photos. Is there any method to apply this at one time instead of manually every single photo?
