i'm using it (and ImageReady) to create layered rollover buttons for my DVD Studio Pro project. I've figured out how to create a rollover with an "over" and a "down" state but my problem is that i want the button area to be small but the image change for each state to encompass the whole screen (basically the buttons will be a series of lights and when rolled over or pressed will light up the whole screen). so far i can only have the small area of the button change or have the whole screen as the button (which is no good because i want to have many buttons on each page). Perhaps each rollover state needs a different background?
My other problems, which may not be relevant to this forum, are:
a, I want to add a sound effect to each of the roll over states.
b, I'm tring to figure out how to have a page purely of audio tracks which play when pressed without changing the page.
I created a navigation using rollovers. I sliced it in imageready, and saved it as html and images. How do I get it on my site? Do I upload all the images then take the < body > part of the html from the rollover and paste it into my desired page? Because I tried doing that but the rollover doesn't work. When I move my mouse over it nothing happens, although in the original html document it did work.
i have a pretty noob question, how do u make button rollovers for a website through photoshop/imageready? once my layouts are sliced, how is it possible to make rollovers? do i have to use dreamweaver? (i.e.- navigation text underlined when mouse is over it..) something basic as to that.
I've been playing with PhotoShop 7 and ImageReady to creat my rollovers. I just added the Rollover state to each of my slices and saved it Optimized as HTML and Images. I previewed it but to my horror found out that when I changed the Over State it also changed the normal state.
I went back into ImageReady to try and fix this but each time I change one the other also changes. I can highlight each but cannot change only one.
I want the normal state text to be red and the over state text to be blue.
I've sliced quite a few homepages in ImageReady before and made rollovers for buttons etc without a problem. For some reason I'm having trouble with a slightly newer version (V9) of the program on my new laptop. I make all the rollover states, select all the slices and 'save optimised' html and images. However, none of the secondary rollover images appear in the images folder, just the normal state pics, so none of the buttons roll. I can't see what I would need to change in the settings to make the program save the rollover alternative images like it used to.
When the mouse is moved over the link I get image boxes opening above and below the link but with no image in them. I have also noticed that Image ready has imported many of the graphics files with names such as Index_7-Index_14_over.gif so the file is not only the slice for Index 7 but the over gif as well. Im not sure what I am doing wrong but here is the page to show what I mean. I have redone the slices and rollover effects three times but still cannot..
Is it possible to do remote image rollovers in PS7? For example when I move the mouse over a link text or button an image on another part of the page changes.
If this is not possible in PS can I do it in deamweaver instead? I've seen a tutorial of it done in Fireworks but I dont use fireworks anymore.
I have a set of buttons and arrows all on different layers in PS. I want to make one of these arrows pop up to the left of the text upon rollover. Basic stuff.
What I'm confused about is how to do this using slices in PS and then putting it into Dreamweaver.
Do the arrows have to be on seperate slices? It seems so easy and yet my brain for some reason can't figure it out.
I have created a image map with rollovers included. I saved the PSD and optimized the image for web and it created the image and html data. All hot spots are working and the rollovers work well too.
The problem I am having is that everytime I open the page containing the image map / rollovers I get a pop up bar at the top of my screen indicating that the data or content on the page is potentialy harmeful.
Why is this? When I visit other sites the rollovers work without a problem and no warnings. Why is this only with my image ready created images and scripts? I really do not want my users to have to have this pop up each time as it is a pain and it may scare some users away and it will screw up my links and images apperance if the pop up bar is not set to always allow.

I'm using the Photoshop/Imageready CS remote rollover functionality to set up a part of a website. On this site I have series of photos that the user can select to customize a sign. There are multiple photos going on multiple locations on the sign. Right now, the remote rollovers and all the needed transparency, etc. is working just fine... but I can only "select" one of the rollovers at a time.
So for example: 1.) They select their First picture to go on the sign... they can see it there (all pretty and whatnot). 2.) They try to select their second picture... and that pops up on the sign but the first picture goes away.
I really need them to be able to see how all these different designs will look Together on the sign. They will then be using the website to order online using an HTML form. I have already looked into the Flash option, but if I can do this in Photoshop it will be SO much easier from a file manipulation stand-point (there's going to be lots of iterations on these designs).
Please tell me I'm just missing something really easy! I just need my remote rollovers to "STICK" or "STAY" once they are selected.
Can you do remote rollovers in Image ready 7? I have only found tutorials on doing them in CS and using the web bar. PS 7 does not have this web bar so I am unable to follow the tutorial which says you have to drag the pickwhip icon up to the layer that you want to be your remote rollover area.
I've been designing a webpage through Photoshop and Imageready over the past few weeks and have created rollover buttons in imageready. The problem I have is that the rollovers work in preview mode and when I preview in IE, but not in Firefox.
i need to make his image into a site.. now i got some ?'s
he is using it for wallpapers, he wants the wallpapers part of the main image on its own layer, so that it is translucent then when you go over it, it will go to full color (no tranparency). do i have to do this as a gif and make it a rollover or something, do i need to make it a seperate image?
I started to get this strange error with my Photoshop when making a new document in Photoshop and got the following error: "cannot initiate Photoshop because Photoshop cannot create any more windows".
I thought the easiest thing to do would be to reinstall (Photoshop needs reinstalling extremely often unfortunately), but now when I try and open the program it just give an alert beep and closes back up. Even though I rarely use ImageReady, I opened that up to check and it does the same behavior.
Can anyone tell me what color settings I need to set in photoshop in order to avoid this from happening? It only happens once in a while and I don't know what I've done to fix it or screw it up. What happens is that when I'm in photoshop and I do a "save for web" my document jumps to image ready and when viewing '2 up' for optimization purposes and comparison, I realize that the original view is actually duller in color and does not look like the original in photoshop. The blacks are definitely not as black.
when I got my first Macintosh IICX and all of my MacPaint clip art. I don't want to get rid of the clip art because since I'm still using a black ink printer and not upgrading to a color one, the clip art looks nice in newsletters and the like.
Up until this time I had been using SuperPaint which had the New Superbits editing plug-in to refine the pictures so they had the smoother and cleaner lines instead of looking jagged. With my new computer and printer, I'm also getting Photoshop CS packaged with Adobe Creative Suite Premium, which I have never used before. Since I have not received my order yet, I was wondering if anyone could tell me whether Photoshop has the capability of improving the older MacPaint clip art like SuperPaint did with the New SuperBits editing plug-in. Over the past two days, I have been trying like crazy to back-up my pictures with SuperPaint and then re-saving them with Graphic Converter. It's been so incredibly slow that I thought I would go ahead and ask you, the experts, if Photoshop can also improve the quality of my older MacPaint clip art or if I should continue to back-up my clip art like I have been doing.
I have just got back from the Elbow gig and pulled the images off the card. They load up in Bridge but don't have actual picture thumbnails. They are named correctly, ie: IMG_3483.CR2 but they won't open!? Error message says 'Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognise this type of file'
I could see them on the back of the camera.
mac users... i did a software update the other day and I noticed that there was an update for ACR. Could it have been something to do with that? And why can't I find ACR in my Applications?
I use Photoshop Elements 11. I am trying to upload photos to a website and the browse only goes to Windows/Pictures. How do I navigate to photoshop to upload pictures there?
of Adobe Photoshop v6.0.1 (quite old, I know, but it do all I want and on my old HW I did not plan/want to use any more recent version, because they are HUGE and with just a little preferences trick, I did not need to reinstall my PS - ever ), yet as Czech user, I need my software to type some special characters as well. These are looking like this:
[URL]...
Now the only problem is, that some of them PS just refuse to type. Seven small and seven caps are just wrong. See the line "for PS:"...
I battled the problem even by editing the fonts itsels, because that seems to work with Adobe Illustrator, yet this also cause the edited fonts to be useless in another programs. So I looked deeply and in the Adobe settings in directory Fonts / Reqrd are directory CMaps and perhaps editing the character map used will be better and usable solution? how to do it or even determine with file from the 96 files in the CMaps directory are right now used by Adobe Photoshop?
Everytime I open my CS6, it always show " Could not initialize Photoshop because the preferences file was invalid (it has been deleted)" I reinstalled it but it is still popping out.
when I try to save a tagra file with a alpha channel in photoshop 7 the box for the alpha channel is greyed out, with an warning sign next to it, and the line below stating "file must be saved as a copy with this selection" When I examine the saved file the alpha channel is not there!
Has anybody got any idea why?
My old version of photoshop 6, allows you to save alpha channels!
the soft edge feature of the eraser and the brush no longer work. I can go into the pallet and choose a soft edge eraser or brush, but it comes up hard edge. When I try to use the marquee box with a feather to get a soft edge, I again get a hard edge. I've used this technique a lot, so I think I'm doing the method properly. I have removed the preference files a number of times and have trashed the old Photoshop and reinstalled Photoshop 3 or 4 times,
I am working on someone elses computer and the Software settings are different. The old owner does not use this computer anymore. The swatches are set and I would like it to function how it usually does, etc. I mean, even the transparent swatch on the tool bar is not there anymore, so when I use the pen path tool, I get these white and black fills which makes it difficult for me to see the path I am meant to be following.
How do I reset Photoshop so that I can customise it the way I want it? Reinstalling the softwares is not an option.
I would like to reset Illustrator, Indesign, Dreamweaver, etc.
I'm having trouble with my zoom tool. If I have multiple Photoshop windows open, when I go to either zoom in or out of the top window... ALL the other windows mirror what's happening to the top window.
I am having in Photoshop CS2. I have had CS2 for over 2 years and have never had this problem. I am not able to open Photoshop CS2. I am getting a message that reads "Could not initialize Photoshop because a required resources text file is missing. It goes through a series of " could not load default contours, styles, custom shaphes because the file could not be found" before getting to the "initialize" window.
I scanned a picture on Microtek scanner and was tranfering it to photoshop when I saw photoshop embeded profile mismatch that has use the emdeed profile or covert document's color in the working space or discard the emdeed profile. which embeded profile do you use for the photos? I attached the shot of the embeed profile from photoshop.
