I just made a multilayered logo for a website. I forgot to make sure that the colors were web safe on the first couple of layers. Is there a way to go through and make sure they are safe or is there a way to make the entire image websafe in one step?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI use PS CS2 alot to make adds for my company that goes into business magazines. Cometimes the content is rather "heavy", and over time i've developed a style which focuses more on function and communicating a msg, than on design (engineers love this).
Now I've found out what file format most of the guys who prints the magazines likes (Press qual PDF with crop marks and sometimes bleeds), but lately when I "safe as" from PS, my image size is not preserved in the PDF!
No matter if I do custom settings or use the defaults. Today im working on a 80mm x 125mm, 300pix/cm (pixel dimensions are 2400x3750) add for a magazine. When I safe as Press Quality PDF, I end up with a PDF, scaled down 3-4 times in size.
Needles to say, im baffled. I've done this countless times, and cant figure out whats wrong.
I've made a dump with the image settings for the PS image, and directly after an export, in Acrobat. See for yourself (note, 1" is approx. 2.5 cm, so the PDF image is approx 3.15x4.93 cm).
I've just upgraded from CS2 to CS4 and uninstalled CS2 already only to find that my brushes, patterns and styles (all very important to be able to continue working) are in a new format called .asl and these are in .psp format.
I really need to get these moved over to CS4.
Not sure how to really describe, other then i have recently (because of my playing with Photoshop) gotten back into some doodling, I have seen a few posts here and there of people doing hand sketches and transfering them to photoshop and "painting" them.
My big issue atm would be getting the outline darkened and cleaned up, I know my pictures are a bit "rough." Everytime i try to sharpen the outline it gives me a kinda black and white esque photo copier effect, I know i could probably skip this step and just ink the original and work from that, but is there a way it would work on here?
Here is an example of the pick i'm working with now, just a simple sketch i did in a couple free minutes the other day.
Im trying to copy and paste writting from word into photoshop.
Ive done a background in photoshop which has a character in the bottom right corner.
My problem is that when I copy the page which Ive aligned the differnt paragraphs differently in, (so that they fit the page in photoshop), when I paste it in photoshop, it comes out all as if it were formatted as a standard word doument-it doesnt even keep the spacing the same (I had it so that it was aligned squre, like a newspaper).
I have been tempted by Adobe to upgrade from PSE5 to CS4 at a reasonable price. I have about 6,000 individually named photos in pse5 organiser / pse5 "collections". If I upgrade to CS4 what do I need to do to process these organiser/collections images in CS4?
Is there a way to transfer all these files, and keep their names/metadata, to CS4? In pse5 "organiser" I can locate any photo by typing in a key word from the photo title; can I do this in CS4 using my present pse5 files?
Anyone out there know how to transfer Adobe Creative suite 2 Premium to another computer? I deactivated the software on the computer I am retiring and tried to install it on my new laptop. It will not activate; says I have a wrong serial number, name or organization.
 I installed it 3 years ago and don't remember what orgainization I used ( I work for several organizations). Tech support will not help me; says the product is too old and they do not support it. I spent a lot of money on this product and now I am dead in the water. Can anyone help or suggest how I can get this product running on my new computer?
A friend of mine using CS3 is unable to display TV safe lines when the NTSC DV 720x480 (with guides) option is selected in the preset drop menu for a new file. Any suggestions?
I'm running CS and have had no problems viewing TV safe guides.
trying to set up a TV safe zone with an image for a project he is doing.
Is it possible to do it withoin photoshop. He is convinced he can do it. But is getting very frustrated that he cannot remember how.
A client I'm doing a site for right now is having a hard time understanding that there are only so many fonts that can be used on a website for text. She doesn't like Arial, and wants something that draws more attention. But I don't want to go to a serif font either.
I really don't know the complete list of 'standard', web-safe fonts. Anyone able to help me out here? Maybe I will find something more to taste if I know what will show up.
Mackbookpro will only start in safe mode for now, and have to make a few things in ps immediately. Have full ps function in safe mode except I can't save my files. Ps quits unexpectedly upon saving anything in any format.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm having a high resolution image (above 100 dpi) changing it's color settings after submitted to the web.
The image looks fine on the Desktop - and if saved using "Save for web..." dialogue the colors remains as deserved on the web as well.
Is there a way to save an image so the color preferences aren't distorted after publishing to the web, but without reducing to 72 dpi?
I use Photoshop CS4 and I shoot and edit my pictures in Adobe RGB 1998.
P.S. If I open Adobe RGB psd file and assign color profile to sRGB it changes to how my non-web-safe images look when uploaded to the web.
Any plugin or something that gathers all the colors within a given image and allows you to save the pallete in another image...If you seen a sprite sheet thats pretty much what Im asking for.It'd be cool if the colors were sorted by how dark it was and by RGB.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there any way to get the colors from an image in photoshop? Ideally, I would like a simple process to get a swatch collection from an existing image.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThere is a noticeable difference in color (and gamma?) in my work images when I view them within Photoshop versus when I view them outside of Photoshop, say, with my Windows Picture and Fax Viewer.
When I attempt a 'Save for Web' the images look differently, too. What can I (what should I?) do to make my images look the same within Photoshop as when I view them from without. This info would save me a lot of wasted time previewing outside of Photoshop to adjust and make corrections within Photoshop. I know there are some color (gamma) adjustments that I haven't set yet.
I'm designing some tshirts and I need to make the image I'm working on COMPLETELY black and white with absolutely no grey, but I can't seem to work out how to do it.

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhy have colors in my merged image changed? I am running Photoshop CS4 on Windows 7 and I'm viewing 3-channel RGB images. Something has changed and the blue channel doesn't appear in the image and the green channel is now blue. Everything looks perfect according to the thumbnails in the channel window. But when I looked at the merged image in the central view, again, blue is gone and green is now blue.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo here's what I've got. I've got a scanned image of the unit patch...the problem is the image shows the thread lines, which equate to different colors. I need to normalize the colors across the entire image...i.e the helicopter should be solid black and the background solid red etc.
Not much of a Photoshop guy but I'm learning OJT it seems. I have both Photoshop CS5 and Illustrator so whichever works best I'm game to use. I've attached the image in question.
I've been having trouble with this render I've created, in that I'm trying to change the colors on this character's hand from the orange tint that some of his fingers have due to firearm discharge, to a more neutralized color that matches another part of his hand, particularly his lower pinky finger. The reason why is I've changed the original color of the gun he's holding to something darker, and I want his hands to reflect the change in color as well.
I've tried everything from painting over the fingers, clone stamping, adjusting the curves, the shadows, the tones, the highlights, and even adjusting the hue and saturation, yet I'm still not getting the results I desire.
Attached are pictures illustrating what I mean, with circles around the problem areas, and a PSD of what I've tried to accomplish so far.
[URL]........
And again, to clarify, I want to change the colors of the subjects fingers that have an orange glow to them to a more neutral tone and to have them have the same color as the subject's pinky finger, which is also circled in blue.
I knew how to do it, but I forgot! Really did.
What I want to achieve is have a swatch of the colours/hues of an image. Of course, the number will be limited, but is offers a great starting point to use for painting etc.
I remember that .aco files had something to do with it, but even Help can't teach me.
Any ideas are more than welcome!
I rememebr from my Photopaint days that in that app it was only one click on a button, but that in PS it was more complicated.
I have a question about selecting sections of an image to copy or edit, and the best/easiest way to do it. I've been using the Pen to draw a line around the edge of the section(s) I want to edit, than tidy up the lines, convert it to a selection, and go from there. But this can often take a very long time.
if there was a better, faster and/or easier way to do this, or if using the Pen tool is probably the best way?
I'll use
this image
as an example (for lack of a better example image). Perhaps I want to take the dark blue area of the skirt, chest and feet and edit them to a different color (maybe I want to turn them red, for instance). Obviously the image has shading so not all of the colors are exactly the same, so the Magic Wand wouldn't help much.
To edit these sections, would using the Pen tool to drag a line around the edges and convert it to a selection be the best way, or is there another better way to do this?
It may be a stupid question, but I just thought I'd ask just in case there was a simpler way for me to go about editing my images.
And if it makes any difference, I have Photoshop CS2.
I am currently unable to access the color table in the mode image section. It is blank so that I cannot select it...any pointers? Also, I am having a hard time changing the colors on my jpeg image and changing the white part of the image transparent.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've been having this problem for some time now. I edit my images and save them but the saved copies in their folders are always 1) darker and 2) with less color. However, when I put the images back into photoshop, they look as they did just before I saved them. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this or what might be causing it?
Also, when I do a lot of editing in one go, I get a message that I'm running out of memory on my C drive, even though photoshop is installed on my much larger D drive.
I can bing up the color picker right? then hover over the brush or what ever you call that over the old image on a certain color to try to get its hex value.. Now how would I do this on Illustrator?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have three photos I'm stitching together, a somewhat panoramic end image.
I have done many of these before, with various techniques, however, I'm wondering what techniques any of you would use to make sure the seam between the photos blends perfectly in regards to color.
You can see below that the blue of the sky is slightly off, producing a visible seam. I can tweak the levels to get it looking better, but then other parts of the image get tweaked the wrong way, as in, if I fix the color in the sky, the color of the rocks below go way off.
Am I just better off merging the layers, and using the heal, dodge, burn tools to paint it together, as I have done before?
Should I use selections in specific areas to fix the color?
I have Photoshop CS and I'm trying to make a background for my cell phone, but the screen is 18-bit and has only 262000 colors so I know if I make an image regularly it will be butchered once it gets to my phone. Is there a way I can limit the image I'm working on to 262000 colors?
