Hello all -

Photoshop newbie here, I searched google and this forum but I can't seem to find an answer. I might be using the wrong terminology.

The problem is I have a Tiff file that was created in Photoshop it wasnt saved as a photoshop file so the layers are not there.

That being said is there any way possible for me to get the layers back?

This file was given to me and I am trying to expand the background. Banner-Final-Wide__sm_2.jpg

If this is not possible are there any alternatives to expanding the background?? You are not able to see it in this picture because of it's size but there is a blue grid inserted in the background and when I use the clone tool the grid does not line up perfectly no matter how hard I try. I tried using a markee box copy and paste it that way but the color does not match not sure why thats happening.

Any comments suggestions would be greatly appriciated.

Thank you
 
you can save layers into a tiff with photoshop, if it has layers in it photoshop will open them automatically


Thank you, this i know... However the question I am asking is this file was obviosly saved by either flattening and without layers I'd like to know if there is someway or something that I can do to bring back the layers so that the different colors/designs/layers are workable again.

Nope.
If you flatten an image and save, the layers are gone.

Shoot, Thanks I was hoping that was not the case but I guess I have to look at alternative routes now. Any suggestions on expanding the background? Without running into these problems below ?
