    cs3 beta question

    thanks for your reply gaussian. I do back everything up on a regular basis. ( although with about 1000 cd's full of files, I'd be hard pressed to find what I was searching for ) I thought 45-50 was safe although my sensor says that the 'f' drive is marginal. It's probably time to add another fan (?)

    cs3 beta question

    Thanks Gaussian, works like a charm. I suppose that by the time PSCS5 gets here I'll have to find a way to grow another finger. Now another question my 'c' drive has been averaging 39 deg. and my 'f' drive about 41. Today 'c' is 41 and 'f' is 46 are these safe numbers? \:/

    cs3 beta question

    Haven't been around for a while.....been busy-busy-busy. But I have a PSCS3 question and what better place to ask than here. I've been beta testing PSCS3 since December. I'm getting to really like it, It's not as sluggish on my machine as CS2 was ( but I eventually got around that after some...

    Photo ReColoring, Luminosity & You

    Do you want to 'colorize' the entire shoe? or just the instep thing? If you look at another post "Photoshop Help" I replied with a quick tute that will cover doing this. ( http://www.photoshopgurus.com/forum/index.php?topic=8117.msg86990;topicseen#new ) If you want to do the whole shoe, I'll...

    photoshop help

    aside from adjustment layers, I've been working on doing some adjustments with brushes. This is a very simplified example. Actually a lot of thought has to go into the contrast steps. But you can eventually come up with a formula that works consistantly. As for 'thinning', That's a whole...

    my new blog

    http://ronmatt.blogspot.com/ I'm too cheap to maintain a website ( and I really don't need one ) so I thought I'd try this out. I just started it today and I have to find out how to do it right and how to customize it. Once it's up and running right there'll be some new tutorials and work...

( didn't tell me what it was ) ( didn't have the issue with 2006 ) So I got irritated and downloaded a trial of Panda. I uninstalled...

    new computer runs real slow with PS CS

    PSCS is ram hog Mateo. It runs optimum with 4Gigs total ram, and prefers it's own scratch disk. Better consider an upgrade already, 'cause CS3 ain't too far away. By CS4 or 5 we'll probably need a dedicated PS machine. :bustagut: A lot of people say 1 or 2 gigs are enough. That depends on what...

    Need help updating/changing logo

    There's a chance that the designer started out by using an illegal substance of some sort, then just took it from there. [shhh] But you could start by locating a simular font and working letter by letter, over that image and just start tweeking them. But, in order to do that you'll have to...

    C&C on Retouching

    Gaussian. I right clicked the original image posted and 'saved image as' to my desktop. Opened it in PS and it was 372 kb. No English problem involved. I was only wondering how it could be there at that size. \:/ I believe Mike explained what he did. I wasn't complaining about it, just wondering.

    C&C on Retouching

    I think you did a fine job. I agree that for a cover or an ad or something of that sort, some attention needed to be paid to the tooth overlap and the bachground. The technique you used I believe is simular to the one I use. I took the liberty of taking 2 more steps ( see attached ). 1) I added...

    Map outline in Photoshop format

    Maybe this will help. Just find the map image you want. Google it. copy it to a transparent window. On a new layer, use the pen tool and trace the area you need. then Path > make selection. or stroke path. If you use 'make selection' then go to Edit > stroke, use the stroke weight you need and...

    Apply Gradient to Type

    :righton: I know, but I really try to promote the use of Illustrator and Photoshop [ en tandem ] Especially to relatively new Adobe users. The power of both applications is enhanced tremendously when used together. My bad.

    Apply Gradient to Type

    Here's a good example where Photoshoppers should consider learning Illustrator as well for some (or many, as the case may be) things. What you want to do is a simple 3 step operation in Illustrator Step1; make the gradient. Step2; set the type and position over the gradient where you want it...

    each and every one of has, at one time, loaded up Photoshop, started it and sat there staring at the screen wondering 'what the..........' \:/ One thing to keep in mind, Photoshop is like golf. The more you play, the better you get. ;)

    How to do this effect?

    another way of doing it is to make the photo a pattern. Then set the type, select it (with the wand) and fill with pattern. doing it this way gives you control over the size and position of the fill in case you have to 'fine tune, it. Then merge.
