    About the .psd file sizes...

    I am not sure for what I will need the photos in the future so I work with quite the highest resolution my camera can produce. If my file sizes are quite "normal" for that, I will just stock up on HDDs then. Out of curiosity I still want to see some hard calculations which show me how to arrive...

    About the .psd file sizes...

    The picture size is mostly about 7000x5000 pixels. And I use about four to five layers most of the time.

    About the .psd file sizes...

    I noticed lately that I am getting file sizes of about 800Mb or 1Gb for .psd files. I am working with Photoshop CC 2017 on a Windows 10 PC. Only thing that I came up with after searching the internet was that merging layers reduces the file size, but it's really a minor reduction, about 20Mb or...

    Clone Stamp and Patch tools...not working...

    I decided to go with the merged layer solution and won't upload a file. Thanks so far for the kind support.

    Clone Stamp and Patch tools...not working...

    Well, the file size is about 800Mb (how does it get so large?)! Is there a trick to reduce the size before uploading? My upload speed is about 0.1kB/s...

    Clone Stamp and Patch tools...not working...

    I was working on a copy of the lowermost layer mostly. There was no lock or anything on it, so I don't know why it's not editable...I can upload the .psd file anyway, but maybe tomorrow, it's really late here now.

    Clone Stamp and Patch tools...not working...

    Well, Shift+Ctrl+Alt E works. I really don't know why, but it works...I mean it's just a merged copy of all the modifications I've done, right?

    Clone Stamp and Patch tools...not working...

    I notice that if I deactivate the uppermost high pass filter (for the rough contours) the artefacts I want to remove disappear. Don't know if that has something to do with the tools...The file itself is HUGE. Can I upload this???

    Yeah, I get this message too if I work on the smart filter.

    Clone Stamp and Patch tools...not working...

    I only reset Clone and Patch tool. Did nothing for me. Could there be some interference with the Smartfilters or the Levels adjustment layer?

    Clone Stamp and Patch tools...not working...

    Resetting doesn't do anything. I am on Windows 10 and my PS version is PS CC 2017. Already tried "All Layers". No effect.

    Clone Stamp and Patch tools...not working...

    Hi guys, I already googled a lot about this problem and tried out most of the suggested fixes but they don't seem to work. Can you give me some hints what to try to fix this? As the title says Clone Stamp and Patch tools don't do anything. I am working on Hintergrund Kopie and this are the...

    Simulated merging of reflective bodies

    Well, my main problem is with the loss of structure after smudging and honestly I am not really able to introduce realistic looking shadows with the brush tool...

    Simulated merging of reflective bodies

    Well, you were right about having to have "some drawing/painting skills" for this project...糞!

    Simulated merging of reflective bodies

    Thanks! This already looks very nice! I will try to use the suggested workflow, but I think it will take some time... Are there any special adjustments for the smudge and brush or did you modify them during the painting (I mean except for size obviously).
