    Best way to work with multiple layers...?

    Neo, LOL .... cool, I am glad that helped. You can also name your Linked Sets just like your Layers. Also, if you use Layer Sets to keep yourself organized, you can also color code them. First right click on your Layer Set, and choose Layer Set Properties: Then click on the...

    Saving for the Web - Color Question

    That doesn't address my monitor color problems, but that is definitely a heads up on something I WASN'T doing when I saved images for the Web. When I looked at that option in the Save for Web dialogue box I had Uncompensated Color checked. I changed that to Standard Windows Color. Thanks...

    Re: re stOrM! I am trying to help you in making it more realistic. That's why I'm posting here. Here is the Action I told you about:

    Saving for the Web - Color Question

    I know to degauss the monitor. I've been doing that for a while now. So it isn't the degauss. Also, earlier in this thread I mentioned that I thought the Adobe Gamma utility was about as useful as a hole in the head. I've tried using it and instead found a better program, called Nokia Test...

    Old Book

    You can upload the action (when I get it here) and in Photoshop you can run it and examine how it was done. That's what I did, and when I figured out how it was done I applied what I learned from that action to create my own design, as in this example here...

    Getting rid of jaggies

    A quick and easy way to get rid of jaggies is to highlight the layer that has them, then on the File menu go to Layer > Matting > Defringe You can also do this: Crtl click the layer to select it, then Invert the selection, go to Selection > Modify > Expand and enter 1 in the box, then click...

    Old Book

    Hi stOrM! - One method for making a piece of paper with rough edges is to draw a rectangular selection (or you can use the Rectangle in the Shapes menu) and fill it with white (or any color you choose). Then go to the File menu and choose Filter>Brush Strokes>Spatter. In the dialogue box that...

    been gone, need help

    I wrote some poems a while back, when I first started writing short stories. I was fortunate to have a few of them get published (which is why I started my own personal writing site). I would say your poem invokes (for me anyway) a still, wet night with a figure (the black cat perhaps?) under a...

    Best way to work with multiple layers...?

    Another method you could use is to link together all the layers in the original file you want to use, then in the File menu go to Layers>New>Layer Set From Linked. This will make a Layer Set from all the linked layers, then you can open the other document, grab the Layer Set you just made, and...

    Saving for the Web - Color Question

    I believe I may need a new monitor. I've noticed that text in the corners of my screen is very blurry. I haven't a clue how to fix this. Maybe it means my monitor is going bad. I really don't know. I do know this - when I look at something I've designed in Photoshop on the monitor at work it...

    How Much Memory To Give Pshop

    I have a Windows XP machine, Pentium 4, 2.5 Gig processor, with 550MB of RAM. I also have two hard drives, one is 30 Gig, the other is 90 Gig. I have one entire drive dedicated to Photoshop, with PS using 60% of that. At the bottom line, PS needs at least 40% of system resources when running...

    >>>IMPOSSIBLE!!!!<<<

    Well, ya can't really say "let's respect each other and go in a friendly way" and at the same time slam the guy. I have seen Chester make some encouraging comments. And besides, the last time I checked, this was still a free country. He is entitled to his say just like everyone else. And...

    You've Come a Long way, Baby

    Just wanted to share this with some PSG'ers, those who know what I've been through in the last year. I'm about to move into a brand new place, haven risen up from loosing my home last year, found a new job, reclaimed my credit, upgraded the computer, and started the design business again...

    >>>IMPOSSIBLE!!!!<<<

    Why say something is "Awesome!" when it's not? My point in a nutshell: Be honest (and yes, this includes telling the person ways to make it better).

    >>>IMPOSSIBLE!!!!<<<

    I have to agree with MB. One of the things that always bugged me about design forums were the amount of people who always gave me crap because I told people the truth - like "Sorry, but your design isn't that good." I always thought telling people the truth about their work was what design...

    Suggestions for a tablet?

    Hi neolite, and welcome to PSG :) I have been researching tablets myself for the last couple months, and I've discovered that the the tablet really depends on the person. If you like a large surface to draw on then you could check out a Wacom Intuos 12x18 tablet. If the drawing area isn't...

    Saving for the Web - Color Question

    Mark, I did install them, but it screwed with my system and I had to revert back to the drivers XP originally used. MB, while I appreciate the long post, I haven't a clue what you're talking about. If you explain HOW to do what you're talking about, then it will be more helpful. For instance...

    Saving for the Web - Color Question

    The article was cool, Wendy, but the Adobe Gamma program is pretty useless. I have tried several dozen times to use it, but the results and the method of setting them leave much to be desired. What helped me the most was the Nokia Test program (the program can be aquired from the link I...
