    Give an image an orange cast (was: Help to get an (orange) instergram (sic) effect)

    You supplied two "goal" images that are quite different, instead of one, so I'm going to pick only the first one to work on, ie, the one of Bangkok at sunset where there is an obvious orange cast over everything. I am also going to use only one of your images to work on, the one where a...

    Give an image an orange cast (was: Help to get an (orange) instergram (sic) effect)

    Please be more specific. You linked to a whole page full of examples. On that page, I see several different looks / effects being used. Please just pick one image as an example. Tom M

    Please help me kindly for my dads urn (photoshop smoothing)

    Here is a 1 minute tweak of one of the items on the page that "thebestcpu" posted. It's not exactly the same as the version you posted, but maybe it's good enough for the engravers and you. Unfortunately, the real problem with the image you posted is that it's too small. It has too few...

    ▶ Sugestions for tidying up this weird wavy line sky ? ◀

    One of our members pointed out to me that you posted the same question over on the Adobe help forum: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2272563 ... and then described the techniques we have been discussing in this thread and this forum. I realize it was probably just an oversight, but in...

    Removing lines from old photo

    Over the years, there have been quite a few really good threads on this subject (or the closely related subject of reducing half-tone dots instead of halftone lines). It behooves you to scan through these to familiarize yourself with this area: FFT Plugin for Macs by Dj Joofa being made...

    ▶ Sugestions for tidying up this weird wavy line sky ? ◀

    You're quite welcome, Arrrgh! Re my profile photo, I'm sorry, but I can't remove it because our Federal Aviation Administration has officially listed it as a navigational aid for this area. :bustagut: Do stop by again. We love interesting questions like yours. All the best, Tom M

    Question about halftone brushes in PS

    We are always the happiest when someone comes by with an excellent, challenging question. Unfortunately, we couldn't figure out to do exactly what you wanted, but it was a good conversation. Please do stop by again! Cheers, Tom M

    Created entirely in Photoshop

    I'm impressed, Hawkeye! I don't have anywhere near the patience it takes to do hyper-realistic work like yours. Very nice! On a humorous note, when I was browsing through the list of new threads and first saw the title of this thread (but didn't notice who it was from), the first thing that...

    ▶ Sugestions for tidying up this weird wavy line sky ? ◀

    Yes, yes, and yes!!! LOL. 16 bpc should be your SOP whether you anticipate banding or not. It's also incredibly useful if you have to lift dark shadows. The other thing you have to worry about is the bit depth of your video card and monitor. Often (especially in the past), you may be...

    Sending Client Emails

    For the reason that you mentioned, ie, not being 100% confident that an image sent by email will remain in close proximity to the text that describes it, I almost never attach more than one image per email message. If I have more than a half dozen or so images to transmit (and, even when...

    File Info

    I realize that you said in another post that you consider this thread closed, but I must confess that the problem you are experiencing has really raised my curiosity. Unfortunately, the link to the file you attached to the quoted post doesn't work. Could you try again to post an example. I...

    ▶ Sugestions for tidying up this weird wavy line sky ? ◀

    Of the videos in Eggy's search, IMHO, one of the best is Lee Varis': https://youtu.be/HLWh68q_yUI Varis gives a very good, easy-to-understand introduction to banding problems, and then suggests the use of PS's splatter filter to break up the banding. The spatter filter is a more effective...

    How do I clean up scanned images in CS6?

    At this point, if you want to get the best out of your device now, and into the future, your best bet would be to contact Ricoh technical support or a Ricoh help forum. I'm sure they would know exactly how to do this. Don't forget this is a Photoshop educational forum and it's unlikely anyone...

    File Info

    Tinyb - To get to the bottom of this, why don't you post an example of one of the files for which the recipients can't see the info you expect them to see. If the size of the example file is over 3500px in either dimension, our forum uploading software will reject it. In this case, just crop...

    Crisp & Cleanup Image

    Maverick0312 - The reason for all the ringing and the edge staircase artifacts is that you started from a low quality, low resolution JPG. The original was only ~1000 px wide, so I cleaned it up a bit and up-rez'ed it to 3000px wide. Download my higher resolution tweaked version by...

    How do I clean up scanned images in CS6?

    Almost all modern multifunction printer/scanner/Fax/etc. machines are able to switch between: (1) a mode that ensures that pure black and white originals (eg, black text on white paper) are scanned or printed as pure B&W; and (2) a mode that ensures that continuous tone (ie, gray scale or...

    Question about halftone brushes in PS

    Hi Yadnom - The work-around that I tried to develop for you didn't produce high quality images, and I don't know of any photoshop brushes whose dynamics work this way, so about the only thing I can suggest for getting this effect within Photoshop is what I suggested earlier: Lay down contone...

    need some help proving this image is a fake

    Chris' explanation, Photoshop fakery, is very possibly the correct explanation, but, assuming it is not an intentional fake, Argos' comment that it could be some sort of reflections is also a very good possibility. There is a phenomena called "lens flare". One of its many forms occurs when...

    Help with Metallic layers

    Hi Fordguy - To be honest, like Fredfish, I am also having difficulty understanding what you want. Another possibility is that you eventually want to have your designs printed, and you want to use metallic ink in some places on the design. For example, see...

    Question about halftone brushes in PS

    Thanks for uploading that, Yadnom. As of a few hours ago, I was reasonably confident that I understood what you have been doing in Krita, and what you would like Photoshop to do. Fortunately, the video you just posted confirms it. The reason I wanted to be sure about all the other aspects of...
