Thanks for the quick reply. I've a feeling that it can't be done but would be a cool feature if it were to happen - maybe (hopefully!) I'm just missing something?

Hi, I'm using CS6 and wondered of there was a way to change the default blend mode of an adjustment layer? For example, if you use the Curves adjustment, as well as increassing contrast it also increase saturation. I like to use the "Luminosity" blend mode so that I get the contrast without...

Hi, I've searched the forums without success so apologies of this has been asked before. I'd like to create a frame round my pictures that mimics the 3D appearance of a card mounting board similar to the one that you would mount the photograph under glass. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance Alun

Hi, I import files off my memory card and convert to DNG/store/tag using Lightroom 3's Import dialog. For the obvious keepers, I then do as much of the processing I can using Lightroom 3 before dragging & dropping onto the Photoshop CS5 icon to do any final color...

Thanks Steve

Is there a way to restrict the crop to within the boundaries of a picture? I am constantly getting a small white line where I've "over-cropped". I'm using CS5 Thanks in advance Alun

Thanks for the reply but won't that just shorten the movie? I need the whole 10 seconds action condensed into 3 seconds. I'll try it anyway....

I have an .AVI video that I want to bring into PS CS5 Extended. I want the AVI to play and be saved (ultimately as aflame animation) quicker than it is now. I have 10 seconds of AVI video @ 15fps and would like to play the whole clip in 3 seconds. Any thoughts? :sad: Thanks in advance

I have two photos which are of roughly the same scene but taken under slightly different lighting conditions. I'll use a MS Word analogy to try and explain what I'm after - in Word, I can select some text and copy it. I can then move within Word to a completely different document and select...

I've imported a short (2 second) video into PS as layers together with a still of the same scene. I want to create a mask for a flower which is moving. Do I need to mask each individual frame or is there an easier way of achieving this? I can't just create a big mask round the flower and it...

Works a treat! Thanks

thanks for the reply and the file. I'm using CS5 and when i expand the zip file (33k) using Stuffit it creates a file with a .cpgz suffix of only 8k - am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for the reply - I'm trying to build a cinemagraph using masks to mask out video layers like this. The masks are all identical as they just show the isolated areas of movement in each frame

I'm keen on knowing this so please post back when you've experimented

Thats brilliant Steve - works a treat!
