    Anybody up for a Challenge ?

    First I`d like to say it`s nice to be back after a long hiatus. Kudos and many thanks to Gaussian for stepping up and saving this Institution. The PS world would be worse off without it. Of course many thanks to TheFounder for all that...founding and stuff.? :D Ok. The Challenge is this : Chop...

    It appears to be that Image>>Threshold woud be the way to go. The background looks to be another Layer with a slight blur.

    Need help updating/changing logo

    The hump can be nearly produced in PS 7 with the text warp tool using the Arc Upper Style. You might have to do it in 2 swctions. The effect, I believe is Filter>>Texture>>Craquelure. Also, you can use the Text Outline tool to make the text, select the Pen tool, right click, and convert to a...

    Apply Gradient to Type

    Geez, sPECtre, ya di*k. :) (Not directed at anyone) I know another forum that was nearly killed by the RTFM response. One that was very helpful when I didn`t know all the proper terms to look up in he Help file. Reading the manual is a very good idea in all cases, but sometmes you just don`t...

    How to get rid of scanned background

    You`re scanning line art ? If that`s the case, you`ll need to select the lines by magic wand(click the background, Guasian blur 1 pixel) and delete, or take it into the Channels Pallette, clean it up as necessary, save the selection, go back the the Layers Pallette, and delete the background...

    need help with waterfall

    Unless it`s on a planet with much stronger gravity than ours, it needs more motion, mist, and the interaction with the river/lake at the bottom. A waterfall is alive. It bounces off the rocks in it`s path, great leaping gobules, spewing, turning,twisting, laying over itself,turning to mist as...

    Loss of quality ( JPEG )

    Not sure what you mean by *download*, but if you`re scanning them, save as a .tiff, and go from there. If you`re downloading from the web, the images are undoubtedly already compressed as far as they can be, and Curves and levels may just accentuate the JPEG compression. JPEG, by definition...

    How do edit the text????

    That works. But why not make an orange box and put your text on it ? For other editing , it needs to be in a Mode besides Index. :)

    Dust and Scratch Removal from 35mm Positives

    If you`re using Photoshop 7, the Healing patch tool works very well for this. If it`s an earlier version, the clone stamp is your best bet. Sample close to the damage, zoom way in and do them one at a time. Another option is the Dust and Scratches filter (or median) but many times they...

    image ready q

    Technical point 1) If theose are the images you`re animating, it won`t show motion. (at least from what I can see in the screen cap, they`re the same image). Technical point 2) If you`re rotating the image so the reflections(highlights) move, it won`t look realistic, because..well...

    Ireland Newbie here in need of advice.

    It`s a nice clean layout, nice soft colors, but these issues will continue to manifest themselves until you learn the code. Not only can you troubleshoot the problems, but you can fix them, or avoid them altogether. IMHO, if you`re serious about Web Design, it`s mandatory. WYSIWIGS have their...

    blend troubles

    Not exactly sure how you mean *blend*. Do you mean smooth the edges ? or like with blending options ? Are there 2 layers or only one ?

    Making this 72dpi image (few colours though) 300dpi??

    Try this, maybe. Open the image in Photoshop. Right click the image title bar, and click on Image size. Uncheck the Resample box at the bottom of the dialog, and increase the image to 300 DPI. Click ok. Right click on the title bar again, and Click image Size. Recheck the resample box and...

    How can i......

    You can make a pattern out of anything, although many won`t tile well without further effort. Open an image in Phothshop and define the desired pattern with the Rectangular Marquee tool. Go Edit>>Define Pattern. Ta-da. They should then be available from the Edit>>Fill menu, as well as...

    Removing reflections

    The approach I would take would bo to zoom in close (4-800 %) and use the clone stamp, and a small soft brush at about 30% opacity. Clone over the reflections with skin from a *clean* area. Tedious, but effective.

    Guide to make a apple look alike logo

    I`m a bit confused (which is nothing new), but not only do I fail to see a post from Erik, but why can`t you copy asymmetric layers ? At any rate. It looks to be the use of gradients and highlight layers, much the same as making any other glassy object. I must be missing something.
