    Adjustment layer Question

    Mark, That worked. I made a selection from the original orb and control J to a new layer which simply copied my orb gradient layer (guess I could have made a dup layer) and moved that down to 1st layer. I guess there was enough darkness there for the curves to merge. I have to try screen...

    Adjustment layer Question

    I don't know what you mean by active. I had a selection going from my base layer so that the adjustment layer only targeted that area of the base layer. So I turned selection off and I had masks on both layers. This hasn't happened before. Maybe i'll try again in a new document.Don't want this...

    Adjustment layer Question

    I made a circle fill -put a layer mask on it and used a circular gradient to make a glowing circle with whitish center. With that selected I put a curves adjustment layer above it and it looks nice. There are masks on each layer and I cannot get these layers to merge. I've tried everything...

    Exhibition in New York City

    Erik, That's a great quote. Got to write it down. Don't cut yourself totally from the art world . There are some artists who are creating amazing worlds with old fashioned paint and canvas. But you must know that. ;) Ferlin

    Exhibition in New York City

    Reply Erik. Please don't think that what I said about claustraphobia is some sort of value judgement. The tight space of Bosch of Max Beckman also "bothers me". Also I am interested if you make digital prints. Ever use an iris printer? Best to stay away from Art world. Fashion Fashion...

    Need help coloring a scanned image.

    dhamon, Heres a way of coloring the just the lines. Use image adjust and contrast to darken the lines and whiten the whites. Select the majic wand tool - select similar - select inverse - command J . This frees your lines from Bkgnd layer. Clean up any unwanted stuff that the Majic wand...

    Dont be shy now, what ages are we all :)

    I hope it wasn't me .I have a feeling it was when I said I'm an old guy. I guess that probably did'nt sound to good to people in their 60's or 70's. I think I have a turrets (SP.) like syndrome for saying the wrong thing. At least my wife says I do. And also, is Rick really a greeter at...

    Exercising paths with the pen-tool

    Hanarky, If you love PS vector tools you will LOVE Illustrator. And you can easily import from one program to the other. Ferlin :righton:

    Dont be shy now, what ages are we all :)

    Well, maybe I am exaggerating a bit - but I can dream can't I. I still got the drive to play - it's like photoshop - sometimes I sit down to play and I get lost in it for hours. If I did'nt have music I think I would go crazy. You know wat I mean? [sleepy] %} [stuned] :D

    thanks davecross, That gets it. Locks right on it. I'll be using that from now on. :righton:

    Contract selection

    Thats what I was afraid of. It seems to work on very small changes, like taking out a soft edge or blur but for anything larger, and I don't mean much larger, I can't get it to work. I'll try you tip. Thanks :righton:

    Contract selection

    I have been fooling with circles - inspired by Marks Glass Button tutorial- and I have noticed that when I select a circle and go to selection - modify - contract and then apply it, i start getting an octoganal [Stop sign] shape -rather than a smaller circle. I tried it with 10 pixels and tried...
