    Align and center

    Very easy... Create a marquee. Select the layer you wish to align TO it. Select the 'Move' tool. Use the vast array of 'Align' tools presented in the menu bar at the top of the UI... You can see from this that you just need the marquee to go FROM the left of the image TO the right.....height...

    Help Making Wood Grain More Prominent In Attached Photo

    Two quick examples...the first is just darkening with black, the second is burning and sponging. Any good?... Depends what you ultimately want to do with it really but a good mask for the grain is the key....you can do anything you want with a good mask. Regards. MrToM.

    Automating making a 2 x 5 array of Business Cards

    Addendum... When you 'duplicate' the smart object layer, (9 times), do NOT use 'New smart object via copy' which can be found either by right clicking a smart object layer or from using layer > smart object menu. This method will create an 'unlinked' copy of the original, meaning it can be...

    Automating making a 2 x 5 array of Business Cards

    No worries. If you need more detail just ask, I don't know your level of experience with PS and this isn't posted in a 'newbie' section so I assumed you know your way around PS and kept it more 'direct'. Regards. MrToM.

    Automating making a 2 x 5 array of Business Cards

    Here is how I would do it... Select all the layers that construct the final image. Right click one of them and choose 'Convert to smart object'. Duplicate the newly created 'Smart Object', in this case, 9 times. Arrange the smart objects as your post #1. To edit, double click ANY of the smart...

    Keyboard Shortcuts Issue

    Make sure to SAVE the changes you make either in the Photoshop Default 'Set' or create a new one... If you don't save your new 'Set' the shortcuts are deleted and returned to default, which is why only the first one ever works. Regards. MrToM.

    Automating making a 2 x 5 array of Business Cards

    I'd suggest using smart objects too, this is exactly the situation where they are most useful. Regards. MrToM.

    how to create something like this ?

    Not really, I just didn't see that last line under the image of the OPs post. @Argos has a more relevant solution. Thanks anyway. Regards. MrToM.

    how to create something like this ?

    ...OR use a font, like 'Top Secret'... You can then distress it however you like. Regards. MrToM. ...OR... I could just notice the small print under the image after posting.....:banghead: Do what Argos said.

    Resizing

    No worries. We've all been there, Adobe products are frustrating regardless. Not a problem, we all had to start somewhere. Yes, it relates to the whole canvas, and the layers within it, you won't need to do anything else. In Elements the route is slightly different, IMAGE > RESIZE > IMAGE SIZE...

    Can't view PNG files in Photoshop CS6

    LOL...It would have been more useful to have had one of the .png files selected at the time of that screenshot so that we may see its metadata but never mind, try this anyway. My initial thought was the usual 'filesize' issue and having tried it, albeit in Windows 10, it does replicate the...

    Resizing

    Yes. Use IMAGE > IMAGE SIZE... 1. Check 'Resample'. (You may need to experiment with which interpolation method to use but start with automatic, see how it goes.) 2. (OPTIONAL) Your aspect ratio should still be correct so no need to do anything here but if it wasn't you could change it by...

    Temp file space

    To be honest I cannot remember how PS runs on XP, its been a while so I can only reference what happens on a Win7 machine. As far as I do remember though, there is no way, nor has there ever been, any way to segregate any 'temp' files generated by PS into its own 'Temp' folder...it shares the...

    Pelican v. Fish

    I may be missing the point here but shouldn't the pelican's bill be open for the fish to be in that position? Or is the fish trying to open the bill to get away? Why is the fish sweating? Do fish sweat? Can fish sweat? I don't think I understand it to be honest, well done, as usual, but...

    Need help!

    This happens sometimes if the file gets interrupted during saving and AFAIK there is not much you can do about it....blame Adobe. If you could share the file it may be possible to fix it better than a quick 'Content Aware' as I've done below... There is software that claims to 'recover'...
