    extraction question

    ummm ... nope, didn't help. changing to Lab mode and selecting the Luminosity channel just made a selection that, as far as I can tell, was the same thing as ctrol clicking the RGB channel. Ugh. Back to square one. :( Anam

    extraction question

    grr ... okay, RL took over and I am jot NOW getting to reply to these. Stroker, I'm on a Mac, and your trick doesn't seem to work. what would be ctrl click for you gets me a grid. When I try to ctrl click on the RGB composite channel, it selects some of the ring -- undesirable. I want...

    ok, I lied, the first file was the original file. Here's the overlaid version. Anam

    extraction question

    I'm trying to extract an object from its background. Should be a fairly simple task, but I'm finding that the steadiness of my hands isn't quite up to the task. (now, if I had a Cintiq, that might help ... anyone? anyone? [innocent] ) The background is a simple black. In order to more...

    yay! Thanks, Vee. I had only one or two of those previously. New stuff is good. Still running seriously depleted, though. Keep 'em coming! Anam

    aaaaaacccccckkkkk!

    Oh, woe is me. [upset] I'm not quite sure how it happened, but my System Folder just got trashed (for all you PC users out there, this is either a) like your yearly system reinstall, without the backup part, or b) getting your Windows directory all hosed up :( ) Anyway, one of the upshots...

    Blue Screen

    Poohfin: Hello, and welcome:) I'm trying to do pretty much the samet hing (the bluescreeen background) with the website that I'm putting in a lot of time on, faerydance. You guys all have given great info :righton: ... but I can't believe that someone hasn't mentioned the...

    Neglected jewels

    wow, thanks Erik ... I'm glad I started this :D More stuff to make my head hurt. Wheee! <grin> Oh, if you're interested in seeing the background that I came up with, after much messing around, go to www.faerydance.com ... it's up there OK I'll stop the shameless plug here <grin> The...

    small wierdness

    yeah, you know, I tried that, and it just turned itself back on ... [[confused] I dunno what's up with that. I guess I can try again. Anam

    small wierdness

    you know, I changed my out of gamut colour too ... pretty much for the same reason -- because I COULD :D Anyway, I checked. Very nice try, but that's not the problem. I haven't reset those colours (yet). See: If you look real close at the edges of the window, it proves that I have my...

    small wierdness

    Duh me ... [confused] that would have helped, huh? Here it is. Blank layer and blank 2 should be completely empty, and thus uncoloured or have the transparent background thingy. Layer 1 should be partially transparent, as there's an object on it that I'm working on. If it helps, Text...

    small wierdness

    Okay, maybe this is a small thing, but I've noticed that layers in my layers palette now have a GREY background instead of a white one. I don't know when this changed .. I THINK I was messing with my Preferences and then a while later I noticed the behaviour change, but I can't find an...

    PS 6 -> 6.0.1

    well, thanks for taking a stab at it, at least, Mark :) You suggest going to Adobe; do you have an URL for them more specific than adobe.com? I tried looking in their knowledgebases the other night, and I don't recall seeing any link for direct email support. Stu, if I recall correctly...

    PS 6 -> 6.0.1

    I've been trying to update PS 6 to 6.0.1 on my Macinntosh for a while now. When I run the updater, it looks ONLY on my startup disc for PS, and it's not there. I've got a 40Gb HDD that I've partitioned into five disks, and PS is on one of the partitions that isn't my startup disk. Does...

    transparency

    woo! Perfect. Thanks Mark. That's just what I wanted to know. I haven't TRIED it yet, but that's what I wanted to know. Does anyone know WHY this sort of thing works only with Indexed and not with RGB colour modes? Anam

    transparency

    Quick question about transparency: Say you've got an image that has a background of a single colour. Say you want to take that colour and make it transparent. If the image in in Indexed colour mode, then you can view the colour table for that image ... and presumably assign one of the...
