    make her dirty

    First: a trick. That is *not* the solution Open the cracked earth, and place the face in a layer above it. See that the face layer is active. Then, at the bottom of the layers pallette, click the f at the left-hand side. These are the layer effects. Choose the top option, Blending Options...

    Fade Gradient?

    If you want the top part to be fully visible and only the bottom part gradually become invisible, you can use levels on the mask and, in this case, drag the light slider towards the middle. Masks are like any other greyscale images. Only, they which pixels can be influenced rather than the...

    Image size reduction question

    Last before I go to bed. I still use PS7 and CS and CS2 are pure skiffy to me. So all I wrote is limited to PS6 and 7 (which are more or less the same, except for brushes).

    Image size reduction question

    When you have an image of 1600x1200pixels and you reduce it to 400x300pixels, Photoshop discards three out of four pixels. To be honest: I didn't actually see it do this, but I read it in one of the "classic" books (bible, Gary Bouton, can't exactly remember which one. I'll look it up if you...

    Image size reduction question

    You can downsample. But you must understand that you inevitably will loose quality. First because you take jpg pics, which are already a "let's act as if" solution as jpg reduces filesize by flattening differences between pixels. This loss cannot be undone. Second because you will reduce the...

    WARNING LRG IMG First attempt at macro

    These are great. Me too, I love macro, and with digicams you really can come very close when you can crop part of a photo for displaying on the monitor. I still have my bellows somewhere....if you oldtimers know what I'm talking about...

    Strange clouds...

    This is a different content shipping under the same flag. I was told/read that a polaron was any polarizing "particle", meaning it could be an electron or a proton. Polaron positivity was, from that point of view, the effect that there was, as a reaction to where an electron had been, a...

    Strange clouds...

    Indeed. Remember polaron positivity? (something like ghosts: creating an effect whilst not located from where the effect emanates.) My name is FrOnkOnsteen, not Frankenstein!

    Leave it to those crazy Canadians!

    Ever read John Brunner's "The sheep look up" ? A most interesting book indeed. When poor Pandora's vase was opened out of curiosity, hope was also found inside. A daily dose of negativity, psychologically adjusted for maximal effect, is given to everybody so that we even more become part of...

    Strange clouds...

    I'm laughing at clouds So dark up above The sun's in my heart And I'm ready for love (Still in a gluonistic Beltane mood) great links. I downloaded these clouds. Now I can choose on which one I will build my castle.

    Leave it to those crazy Canadians!

    Welles: finally! This is the kind of thing I love to read. Sometimes I'm a bit frightened that those book burning days will come again in the near future. Just read a published document that should have been kept secret ( www.timesonline.co.uk ) that clearly states how a trap was set for...

    Leave it to those crazy Canadians!

    Xcuse me, but Tesla's game was, amongst other things, to use the energy from the ionosphere (they have taken up his plans) by buidling a network of towers all over the world. He stopped because he calculated (and this long before chaos math calculated that for example Mercury's orbit is...

    Money Question

    Please say where you come from. The country does play a big role. (are you independant, do you have to pay income tax, do you have to pay social security, VAT, what's the price of your equipment, what's your quality level,...) What does a plummer get per hour?

    .psd v's .tif

    http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/tiff/TIFF6.pdf Tiff comes from Aldus, which was bought by Adobe. Layered tiff was an Adobe invention and unreadable by most non-Adobe apps. I personally prefer to use the proprietary tag (psd, c4d, ...when saving for myself. For print, I...

    Photo Enhancing ??

    It is clearly about pc, so when you browse with mac, you won't see this. Most probably it's a kind of publicity but frankly, I don't care. Sites that use this, and/or webmasters that allow it should be banned from the net for five centuries. Believe me: I have no spyware! the second time...

    Photo Enhancing ??

    I clicked on that link. First of all I got a popup that, luckily!, goot stopped by firefox, but then, when closing the site and returning here I got this scandalous kind of window. Please *never* ever use that site again as someone here might be less experienced and get into problems!

    You're invited! The gallery owner chose two of my works. I would have chosen others, but it's his gallery. I won't be there as I prepare an exhibition in France on witches.
