This is the Photoshop discord channel. We are here to help with Photoshop questions.

[winter lichen]

Ohhh

Is this good photoshop

[lapis mulch]

Hi, suddenly started having a bit of a problem with photoshop, it doesn't respond to most things, I can only open images directly from the image itself. I can't flatten layers, change image size or anything else.

I have uninstalled and re-installed photoshop and it's still the same.

Does anyone have a solution? Ty

[winter lichen]

School😝

[lapis mulch]

Is anyone here?

[lapis mulch]

Hi there sorry for the ping, but I desperately need to do some things and I cannot seem to fix my problem with photoshop

[river otter]

Hi, my patch tool suddenly have trouble

and evrytime I drag it, the patch that I make become a mess and wont work

[grave fossil]

hello

anyone here online

I need Some help

Anyone can tell which software is used to change vocals of songs into my own voice

any tell

btw tag me while telling

[willow gale]

Hi @lapis mulch Not sure what is happening. Have you restarted the computer lately?

[willow gale]

Uninstalling from the CC desktop app leaves behind Preferences that may be corrupt. The next thing I would do is back up, custom brushes, custom, presets, etc. and then try Settings > General > Reset Preferences on Quit. Then close and relauch Photoshop.

[lapis mulch]

Ty hey, the problem has been fixed now

[willow gale]

The last thing I'd try is completely removing Photoshop with the CC ... OK! Sorry. I was out.

[lapis mulch]

Unfortunately that involved completely removing all adobe products and the cc app, as well as deleting everything in the appdata folder

Reinstalling after that fixed it

[lapis mulch]

No worries hey, thanks for responding tho 🙂

[fluid crane]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @willow gale

[willow gale]

That's where I was going. Did you use the CC Cleaner tool?

[lapis mulch]

No idea what that is

I just uninstalled everything, went into appdata local local roaming and the other and deleted the adobe folder

Then reinstalled

[willow gale]

It would have fully removed Photoshop. As I said a few minutes earlier, when you uninstall Photoshop from the desktop app and leaves remnants behind. The CC Cleaner tool removes everything from everywhere.

[lapis mulch]

Thanks hey, I will keep that in mind for future errors 🙂

Would make things simpler

[warm sequoia]

so i wanted to have this cross m16's beneath the trinity logo but it doesnt seem to go below even when i have my layers properly arranged

[willow gale]

Yes, file it away for future issues.

[willow gale]

Hi @warm sequoia: all objects are black. I can't tell from the image what is on top or underneath.

[warm sequoia]

those guna are above

so this is beneath

but i want the guns to be beneath and this logo to be above the cross guns

[willow gale]

Hi @river otter did you get this worked out?

[river otter]

yes, ty.

[willow gale]

OK great!

[river otter]

but I still have one more question if possible

[willow gale]

of course

[willow gale]

@Ken, make sure the white interiors are filled with white and not transparent.

[river otter]

how can I remove the shadow around the lines to complement it's surrounding? I tried brushes but I don't think i find the right one.

[warm sequoia]

they are not transparent , apparently i had to blend it in and then use filter to turn it black its original color was gold

[river otter]

It just suddenly turn out like that after I clone the lines

I tried using the eyedrop as well but the brush I can't figure out what brush

[willow gale]

Cloning copies the pixels you brush over. Easiest path is to back up, and clone with a smaller brush so that you don't pick up the extra pixels.

[willow gale]

A blend mode could make the white interiors drop off.

[river otter]

I see. but backing up and redoing it again would take even more time I guess I have no choice

[willow gale]

Well, you could still clone the medium browns out now. The trick is to really watch closely what's getting cloned and stop and adjust before you complete cloning the whole area when you realize it's not right.

[willow gale]

in the clip above, there are two triangles with a line on top. The triangle to the left has a white fill, and the triangle to the right has no fill. Those pixels are transparent, so when I pull the line underneath the two triangles you can see through the transparent triangle, and the line shows through.

[willow gale]

then, if I change the blend mode for the triangle with the white fill to multiply for example, the white drops out and they're behaving the same way. You can't tell by looking which what is on top and what is underneath.

[warm sequoia]

oh i will try messing with the blend mode , thanks

[fluid crane]

[edgy iron]

the handle of pen tool covers the curve of pen, could it be hidden temporarily?

[sterile grove]

Is there a way to see the saved image canvas in the folder in ps? In another software i have it shows the picture before you select it, but in ps all of them are this image

[edgy iron]

I have the same question

[wise fog]

hello can someone fix please this mess for me , i want to keep the chess with the background color and take off the lines

[lapis mulch]

Since I still got this open, this would be a wonderful thing to add Adobe

[young roost]

Hey currently I´m trying to face swap this picture. Does somebody know how I can make it more realistic? And I cant really explain where the red boarders are coming from.

[viscid lintel]

I'm sure this is probably a simple answer, but I've never worked with some of these tools before. Whenever I try to use blur, it creates this solid black edge around the object. How do I prevent that?

OH WAIT DONT ANSWER THAT

Oh wait, do answer that. Thought I figured it out, did not.

[willow gale]

Did your try the Blur tool in the toolbox? It's grouped with Sharpen and Smudge.

[young roost]

oh yeah, I forgot it thx :))

[livid otter]

I have a 600dpi scan of a print I would like to get to a level ready for print on t-shirts and other merchandise. However, there are a few pieces of pastel in red/brown/black that have migrated onto the image when the photographer took the high res. image. I understand there is a bit of detail for printing. What would be the best way to go about removing these in PS while maintaining the high resolution image quality?

[lucid crane]

Not in this PS discord !

[sweet nacelle]

im trying to recreate the 1st image, 2nd image is my progress so far

how do I make the person and the trophy look like as in the 1st image? You can see they're clearly modified

[river otter]

Hey guys, how could I make something look like it is embedded into something? Like a rune on a piece of wood or something

[jovial jewel]

I want to create like this picture. Can you help me please!

[lunar stirrup]

How i can mirror anchor points?

[river otter]

Draw it, change blending modes and opacity.

[river otter]

Sharpen, lower saturation...

[vapid flume]

You can watch that one, it will help!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3qe4rDw1XU

[vapid flume]

What do you mean by create? Do you already have photos? Or do you need to create them with Generative Ai?

[vapid flume]

Will this help?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxK6ZfMBmiE

Once you'll know the menus you can change your embossing type, depth of effect etc...

[vapid flume]

I don't think there is a specific menu in Photoshop for that there is in illustrator)
so I would copy the path, paste it, and then use CTRL+T to summon the transform contextual menu, and then from there right-click to choose "flip" (horizontal or vertical)

[vapid flume]

There are so many ways to do that, but my favourite would be to use the "healing brush tool"

which has the ability to keep the overall texture if applied in small, delicate touches

That means you will have to sample (Alt+click) a clean area, and then apply that sample to your defective area. If it's the first time I suggest you just try it on a new layer first (that would be my suggestion anyway, as to always keep your corrections on a separate layer)

If you look closely in the top contextual menu for the tool, you will see a drop-down that says "current and below". That's the option that lets you sample the layer below to apply the corrections on a new layer

[river otter]

I use overlay, opacity and inner shadow for such things.
Then just choosing if Embedding should be darker or lighter then object its embedded into and choosing black or white color.

Bevel works too, yea, who have nervs for it. I don't usually. 😆

[vapid flume]

@river otter Sorry I realised I answered to the wrong person! 😨 It was meant for @river otter

[river otter]

It's fine, I'm sure he read it.

I did all like in that tutorial, bevel and emboss still looks like a protrusion not an inset.
That's why I hate it.

Without it, and with Shadow looks just right.

[elfin flower]

The quality for this is very low. Is there any easy way that I can make it less pixelated?

[vapid flume]

Depends what method you are using

[vapid flume]

You can, bit trying to smooth the lines (but it can go very wrong, very quickly)
Try filter> noise> median

[river otter]

I think I got how to avoid protrusion.
Countering highlights with inner shadow gives nice result.

[vapid flume]

If you happen to have illustrator, I would try to image trace it and tweak the settings to avoid the jagging (for example the "noise" option)
Or try it in the image trace module from Photoshop, but That is a little more crude

In PS, go to your library panel, click on the + icon at the bottom and choose extract from image

When there, choose the "shape" tab and play with the sliders

You prbably would want more details, and smooth on save to keep the brush strokes. This can only be saved to a library, so once it's saved just drag and drop it on your canvas from the library it's saved in. This is not a standard shape, it cannot be editable unless you rasterise it. It's a last resort digitisation, so I would really do that in illustrator instead, but if you don't have illustrator then it will be better than nothing

[elfin flower]

I have illustrator downloaded but I haven't used it yet so I would have no idea how to do it in that

[elfin flower]

Thanks, I just tried this but it didn't really do much

[fluid crane]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @vapid flume

[vapid flume]

https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/illustrator/using/image-trace.html
That might help
The help files are the unsung heroes of all this. Sometimes just way simpler to get than random videos 🙂

[elfin flower]

Ok thank you

[vapid flume]

You get a button here

that should get you directly to the menu when you click on it, with a test file to explain step-by-step how to do it. It's super easy to learn that way. You try it by yourself, but guided

Once it's digitised (or vectorised) you can enlarge it as big as you want, and it will stay the same quality all the way through

[elfin flower]

When tracing it, it still loses a lot of detail

[vapid flume]

you need to play with the sliders

threshold, paths, noise etc

you have an explanation of all the advanced controls in the help link I gave you

[elfin flower]

Ok I'll try that

[hollow sky]

How do I merge two layers and create a new layer of it?

[vapid flume]

Select both, right click, then "merge layers"

[hollow sky]

Yeah but I want it to create a new layer instead of replacing both of the original

[vapid flume]

Then you should duplicate them first and merge the dups

You have the "duplicate layers" higher up in the same menu

[hollow sky]

Ah alright, I thought there was some shortcut to do it but I'll try that, thanks

[vapid flume]

Another way is to only make those two layers visible, and then CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+ E that will create a new merged layer of all the visible ones

But the latter sometimes doesn't work properly if you have layer styles

[hollow sky]

Perfect, that's what I was looking for

[hollow sky]

Ok I see

[dire patio]

why did the History Eraser erase the brush the same way the regular eraser just did in this second layer? also i did use the history eraser on this first layer and it worked properly by reapplying the erased parts of the brush
and how do i make it work the same with the first layer i shown?

[elfin flower]

After a while this was the best I could get it to. I'm guessing you're not able to make it 1:1? @vapid flume

[sweet nacelle]

how do I make these blend together better?

this is what I got in the end, how can I improve it?

[serene coral]

You have to adjust saturation and brightness locally, you can use the hue/sat adjustment layer and a layer mask

[median flame]

wow looks realistic like someone carved it out

[vapid flume]

What do you mean by that? If the original is really small and a bit crappy, there is a limit of what either PS or illustrator can do. It will never be 100% exact, because they have to work with partial info, and they can't extrapolate from that. Digitizing is the best way to go about it, but I never said it would be perfect. Perfect would be you recreating those brushes in illustrator or Photoshop and redrawing it the exact same way.

Hi, I have a question about Lightroom Classic. Sorry if this isn't the right place, I couldn't find a LrC server and I just learned that the Adobe Express one closed.

Question: I want to change my Photography (1TB) plan to the Lightroom (1TB) plan, which doesn't include LrC. How can I preserve all my edits and work I made in-app for when I return to LrC in the future?
Some say:

(a) Everything will remain intact and I only lose access to the develop module, mobile sync and something else.

(b) But others say I still need to export my catalogs.

Are any of these true?

[vestal mesa]

Does anyone have any background idea

https://i.imgur.com/T30FEw9.png

[odd jackal]

Probably a relatively simple adjustment that I'm looking to make - just want to change the color of the red steel roof grey without losing the texture. Have tried a couple different fill options but wasn't quite successful

[sly hawk]

you'd be better using Gen fill or content aware fill...

[sly hawk]

Use a colour gradient.

[sly hawk]

Generative Fill did the job.

and what could be improved

[odd jackal]

Is there a sensitivity adjustment that you made to the quick selection tool? I'm using shift/click to try to get all of the red but doesn't seem quite as accurate as yours. Just curious!

Nevermind...enhanced edge

[sly hawk]

I have no idea what it's supposed to be. - If it's a thumbnail, the text is too small. I can barely see the person top left and the REC is hard to see too.

[hollow pier]

Hello, I wanna know if its ok to ask people her to make a job for us ? with payement ofc 🙂

[vestal mesa]

it's for a roblox game

https://i.imgur.com/smMrZor.png

any more tips?

[sly hawk]

Still a little hard to see, I'd add a stroke....

[vestal mesa]

stroke?

what was a stroke

[sly hawk]

An 'outline' - an in my case.... one that matches the background colour

[vestal mesa]

oo

that's so much better

[vestal mesa]

tho how did u do this

like the selection becoming a cube

[sly hawk]

You can also try 'outer glow' for the same effect: - It's in the same place the stroke settings are found.

[vestal mesa]

ok

[sly hawk]

It's all in the video. Admittedly a little fast (sorry). - Maybe play it in slow motion to see the buttons I'm using 🙂

[vestal mesa]

https://i.imgur.com/SVpWCVG.png

I decided to use the outer glow to make it glow a bit

i think this looks good too

[sly hawk]

FYI, you can combine multiple effects:

@vestal mesa

[vestal mesa]

Looks good too

also

@sly hawk do u know how to change the color of an image really good

https://i.imgur.com/B5Dzked.png

like, I want to change the color of this picture

to blue and green

do I just use hue and saturation?

or is there a better way

[sly hawk]

Are you combining "hue and saturation" with a mask, or selective colours?

[vestal mesa]

what's selective colours 🤔

[sly hawk]

(e.g. the first part of this video)

[vestal mesa]

idk abt it

[vestal mesa]

shoot

ohh

I would just use

the lasso

to then split

and use different colors

for both of em

but this is beter

*hue

[sly hawk]

If you want specific colours, try this:

[vestal mesa]

jesus that's crazy

I got this too

https://i.imgur.com/X3kg3Yk.png

with just hue and saturation

and I added a stroke

[sly hawk]

Yeah, you were lucky that the colours you wanted could be generated via the simple hue slider. - You'd have been screwed if you wanted something like yellow and purple.

[vestal mesa]

ye

I would have to do the method u did

https://i.imgur.com/rOKRfIw.png

this is the result

but I don't feel like the placing of the AXS logo is rlly good 🤔

or is it

[sly hawk]

You're learning - which is the main goal anyway

[vestal mesa]

yea

I got photoshop rlly recently

like 2-1 weeks ago

[sly hawk]

I don't think I'm the target audience for your art, and this is really subjective.

[vestal mesa]

fair

[sly hawk]

Like....I pretty much hate every one of these 'apparently amazing' thumbnails:

[vestal mesa]

the thumbnail idea was random and I thought that making something like this would've been interessting

[sly hawk]

Yeah, of course. It's coming together L(

[vestal mesa]

now uh

Imma use camera raw

to give some final touchs

*touches

good luck.

I have a PC hardware question - trying to set up a system for a new employee for some PS/AE usage for web and marketing work. No 4K/big images or videos. The base system is Ryzen 1700 + Radeon RX 470 (32GB RAM, SSD). Will this work fine? and what would be the difference with an Nvidia GPU like GTX 1660 Ti/Super or RTX 3050/3060? Old Polaris GPU doesn't support the latest OpenCL that Adobe wants...

[willow gale]

And I wish you the best on the migration, @vocal anchor !

[river otter]

Yeah, kinda. The only issue is I was going for more of a carved in rune like you would see on viking swords and stuff. Would you know how I can do that? If not then I can make this work ahahahah

for reference, this is what I need the runes on.

[tame lintel]

How do you make this bent thing straight? Is there any tutorial recommendations??

[willow gale]

That looks like a curved brush stroke. To draw a straight line, select the Brush tool, color and hardness. Click where you want to start the line and Shift+click here you want to end it.

If you are determined to change that curve to a straight line you can try puppet warp but it won't be very accurate. I'd just erase and redraw following the steps above.

[tame lintel]

I just did a curved brush stroke to simplify the problem I’m having, I have a bent texture that I want to straighten out and I have no idea

[tame lintel]

I tried puppet warp, it’s not too perfect

How can I make it perfectly straight?

[vestal mesa]

How do I make a line like this?

[frank raven]

How do I cut this out perfectly and turn the black into white ? Pl0x

[vestal mesa]

Click the layer, press selection then color range and click the black, then press the cube with a circle that's on the bottom right

This is for cutting it out

[frank raven]

THANK YOU, SIR! 🫡

[willow gale]

As you may know, Photoshop is pixel based—whatever curved object you have is built on a square pixel grid—it's not a easy task to straighten a bitmapped image. You could play with Edit > Transform > Warp to see if you can get closer.

[magic onyx]

I used generative fill on a image with a solid-color background, and it introduced some artifacts into the otherwise single-color background. How should I go about removing these slight discolorations? is there a way to select all "similar" colors in an image and change them into a single color?

the "replace color" just appears to be a hue/saturation change, and doesn't get rid of the actual artifact itself

better image of the artifacts i'm talking abt (contrast turned up)

[tame lintel]

Oki ty!

[vivid pelican]

anybody knows why under 3DLUT i cant seem to use that feature for the image i am editing?

[nocturne sphinx]

[fierce hornet]

What kind of editor are you in search of?

[river otter]

Why does puppet warp keeps cutting my photo?

[nocturne sphinx]

3d modeller

I create designs in 2d, i need someone to turn them into 3d

[fierce hornet]

check out Behance

[nocturne sphinx]

If Puppet Wrap is cutting your photo, it might be due to the boundaries set by the tool or the specific area you're selecting. Ensure that you're adjusting the puppet wrap points carefully to include the entire photo without cutting off edges. Additionally, check if there are any restrictions on the puppet wrap tool that limit the transformation within certain bounds. Experiment with the tool settings and points to achieve the desired result without cutting off your photo.

[nocturne sphinx]

Ok

[river otter]

Can you explain it in a much simple context I'm sorry I'm not really good in english so It's kinda hard for me to understand

[nocturne sphinx]

Put your screenshot here, I need to see what your problem is ?

[nocturne sphinx]

Try to select the image layer first, and then try to add lut

[river otter]

Is it possible to screen share instead? or nah I gave up on it I'll just ask a different question insted. so I was trying to cut off an image using calculations so I wonder since the video that i watched didn't mentioned it. the black is for keeping the image and the white is to remove the ones that you dont want to include right? also is there a specific brush for it or any brush could do? and do I need to make it really black or really white or kust the touch of the brush is good?

[serene coral]

you're working in cmyk, switch to rgb to use 3d luts

[serene coral]

does it cut only the parts that are outside of the canvas? it would help a lot if you could screenshot it. win+shift+s

[river otter]

so I pin just the leg partand moved it and when I applied it, it gaves me a cutt of image.

[serene coral]

can you please screenshot it? are you on a mac or windows?

[river otter]

I'm on windows. I actually no longer have the image as I back out from editing it.

[river otter]

what about this one?

[serene coral]

next time you can easily take a screenshot by using win+shift+s and selecting the area to screenshot. then simply paste the image here

[river otter]

I know how to screenshot I just intentionally leave it out since the photo is personal as well

[serene coral]

I'm not sure why are you using calculations? it's a very specific operation and there is absolutely no need to use it unless you have a specific use case for it. are your next questions related to calculations as well?

[river otter]

I use it because it a pesons photo and I wanna make sure that the hair will be cut with accuracy tho I know that's not a 100% I still think that calculation is way better than pentool or patch tool for that case

actually it is related

[serene coral]

use regular masking methods then https://discord.com/channels/547473772727238676/1045711257178738760

[river otter]

Oh what are the regular masking methods?

I will check that out thank you

Btw can you list me the ways to cut ou an image what I know so far is
• Pentool
• Patchool
• Calculations
• Blending

[nocturne sphinx]

If you want to cut out a person you can use select subject

Only if you have the latest version of Photoshop

[serene coral]

not sure how do you mask with the patch tool but good luck!

[river otter]

I think I did that but it didn't cut as the way I expected it.

[nocturne sphinx]

Then you can use lasso tools, like magnetic lasso tool

To do it

[river otter]

No I use patch tool if the image I'm cutting is not that complicated or big, but thanks I appreciated it.

While opening your photoshop press the shortcut key ctrl+alt+b and a menu opens as scratch disk preferences, in that menu add your other disk partions in 2 3 and 4

A menu like this appears

Add your disks in there

[onyx nebula]

i have this

[nocturne sphinx]

Select the second disk also and click ok

[nocturne sphinx]

If doesn't work

Deselect c and select d and click ok

If that also doesn't work, go to your system's graphic settings and add photoshop in performance mode

[onyx nebula]

thanks for your help bro, but neither work

keeps crashing

[nocturne sphinx]

Did you try this one ?

[nocturne sphinx]

For my friend that thing worked out...

[serene coral]

are you on the latest version? have you tried resetting the preferences? https://discord.com/channels/547473772727238676/1042970894911410277

[nocturne sphinx]

If that doesn't work try changing compatibility and run photoshop as administrator

[onyx nebula]

i cant do it, it gives me like 3 sec max and crashes then...

[vapid flume]

Did you update recently?
I would uninstall this version and install an older version just to test (don't worry, as long as you tells it to keep your presets and transfer them, you won't loose anything). Once there, you can check if the graphic card is fully compatible, if the scratch disks work as intended, etc.

Sometimes you can also clear the preferences (so you may loose some things like tools presets etc) when you do SHIFT+CTRL+ALT just as the launch page appears, So basically open Photoshop, then hit the 3 keys immediately after (might beat your 3 seconds), that's what @wertos said.

If your preferences aren't crucial, you can start with this one, before going to the uninstall/ downgrade route

[onyx nebula]

thanks for the info, ill check it out later today

[nocturne sphinx]

You can try changing compatibility by right clicking \ properties \ in Photoshop

[sly hawk]

Use a mask with a stroke like this....

[sly hawk]

The quality is awful, and it's been designed by someone who nicked two other designs and placed them over the top of each other. THe cross seems to have an outer glow with noise applied , which makes it even worse. - You'd be better off finding the original assets and remaking it:

Yes, you can use the colour selection tool for this. See video for a few ways in can be utilised:

please try restarting the app and rebooting your mac first. try denoising on a different photo

[serene coral]

the window disappearing would suggest the process was successful. make sure the denoised photo is not stacked under the original one

hi guys does anyone want a logo im quite new to photoshop

[sly hawk]

?

[latent flare]

space grain company logo

still very good though

[pallid umbra]

So i made a poster in photoshop, saved it as a .pdf. opened it in acrobat pro.
When convertng the .pdf

this is in photoshop

this is in word/powerpoint

any reason why this happens and how i can prevent it?

[latent flare]

did you convert from pdf to word?

[pallid umbra]

yeah

[latent flare]

I think that is the problem

word doesn't really know what anything is and its formatting whatever is not good

so when reformatting the file, I think some data or something got lost in translation and caused that case

in my recomendation, I would save that part as a image itself

and just drag it into word or powerpoint

[pallid umbra]

no conversion from acrobat pro?

[latent flare]

I don't recommend it

it can work from time to time, but it makes words into picture and so and so

[sly hawk]

space grain = "knowledge Kernel" 🙂

@sly hawk the client liked your style alot btw, thank you again!

i updated the poster to a infographic type. kept your header

and then added my own stuff

[sly hawk]

yeah. - As per my previous video, you can't really trust the conversion to do the job.

[pallid umbra]

i will show you later when the client agrees to the new version

since there's a heavy NDA on it rn

[sly hawk]

You'll need to manually recreate it by saving out the assets as seperate bits, and then recreating in word/powerpoint.

[sly hawk]

I see you went for a https://www.vecteezy.com/free-vector/topographic-map style too.

[pallid umbra]

yeah, i love those contours

Hello, does someone know why my pencil does paint inconsistent as if antialiasing is enabled but? Modus is set to normal, opacity 100% and smoothing to 0%. In the past I never experienced painting a solid colour with the pencil

[sly hawk]

Does pencil even have antialiasing?

[jovial palm]

I'm surprised too, didn't think so

but something seems to be weird in my settings apparently, just can't figure it out

[sly hawk]

did you have some pixels SELECTED when painting?

(like in your screenshot?)

[hazy current]

a clean reinstall fixed it,

[sly hawk]

A pixel can be 'partially selected' it's the dotted line you see isn't a definative SELECTED OR NOT.

[dapper zephyr]

Every time I save an illustration on photoshop, it becomes a bit blurry. It doesn't matter whether I save in PNG or leave it as PSD. How do I stop this?

[willow gale]

A good rule of thumb is to use Photoshop for photo editing, and Illustrator for illustrations. Photoshop uses a square pixel grid and therefore needs to blend curves so that they don't look pixelated.

[dapper zephyr]

Oh I had no idea. In the meantime, is there any way to prevent this? Or that's just the nature of Photoshop

[willow gale]

It's really the nature of Photoshop. You can see the blending (aka anti-aliasing) on the curve visible in James' video poster right above your question.

[willow gale]

This may be helpful: https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/file-types/image/comparison/raster-vs-vector.html or perhaps can help you locate an explanation that is. Keep in mind the bitmap/raster/pixel grid are synonyms. PSDs and PNG files are both pixel-based.

[unreal ocean]

aint no way

thats funny but thanks

useful

[sly hawk]

If you want to take it further... - See here...
Don't use this skill for evil though!

[jovial palm]

Yeah exactly

[jovial palm]

Okay very interesting, but in older versions of photoshop it did work with selection.

I am working on a satmap for a game engine, the workflow so far was always to select specific areas of the satmap inside another layer and then use this selection inside the layer of the mask for the game engine.

It always gave me sharp borders

[sly hawk]

try this...

• Make your original selection:
• Enter Quickmask mode by pressing 'Q'
• Use menu Image > Adjustments > "Threshold" and set your selection
• Exit Quickmask,
• Now you have your solid SELECTION. You can now mask, or paint it with either the pen or brush tool.

[jovial palm]

Okay I will try tomorrow and give feedback! Thank you very much 🙂

do i have to just brush it or what

How do I resize text boxes

[wind kiln]

Hello! Have a question regarding a logo we have and use. So, we are making a end of the year completion and in the beginning of the video we want our logo to be an animated blinking eye. I'll attach the logo at the bottom for reference. Is there any way we can do that? I am kind of new to PS and was wondering. Thank you.

[sly hawk]

Click the text tool first, then click the word and the handles will appear.

[sly hawk]

Well. "Technically"' it can be done, but not through any automatic method. - you'd likely need to do it in Adobe Aftereffects which has a very steep learning curve...

If it's a company project, it would be more cost effective to hire someone than dedicate the time you'd need to learn and do it yourself.

I have been learned a bit about illustrator in contrast with Photoshop and though I hear it creates very crisp lines, the style of art of Photoshop appeals to me more. Is there any way to stop my drawing from blurring after I save them on Photoshop? It's not vector art but more like digital paintings.

For example, stop compression upon saving, etc.

Maybe increase canvas size

[livid otter]

Is there a reason why there is a gap between the image size and the canvas size even though they have the same dimensions?

[willow gale]

Hi @livid otter The image size and canvas size both indicate the dimensions of the file. The canvas size is the full editable area of an image. The image size dialog box allows you to modify the pixel dimensions and resolution of the entire file—it doesn't differentiate between the transparent and colored pixels. If you want the dimensions of the art in the center, select it and look at Window > Info.

[dapper zephyr]

Is resolution the same as DPI? Or is PPI?

[sweet nacelle]

This image is an extension of the katy perry album cover made by me.
Looking at it, what do you notice could be improved easily? (im a complete beginner)

[dapper zephyr]

For example, would 300 here be the DPI or PPI?

[robust flare]

ive never seen anyone drag layers to the trash can ever

[sly hawk]

No. Resolution and PPI and DPI are all different things.

[dapper zephyr]

Is DPI for printing? I only see where I can change the PPI when setting a canvas size. I don't see anything for DPI

[sly hawk]

DPI means 'dots per inch' and it's literally talking about the number of 'dots' a printer generates.

to be honest. Think of DPI and PPI as the same thing for the sake of your current needs

The most important thing is resolution.

When it comes to PPI, it pretty much just means "if this were to be printed, how many pixels per inch?"

E.G. If you had an image that was 10px by 10px, but a PPI of '1'..... - This would mean 1 pixel = 1 inch.... making your image 10 inches x 10 inches.

Now, keep your image at 10px, but change the PPI to 10.

• This would mean that your image is now '1 inch'

https://99designs.com/blog/tips/ppi-vs-dpi-whats-the-difference/

[sly hawk]

You changed the CANVAS size, not the IMAGE size.

[sly hawk]

In photoshop, 'Image size' includes the empty wasted canvas too.

[sly hawk]

In your example,

[dapper zephyr]

Thanks, I only see where I can change the PPI when setting a canvas size. I don't see anything for DPI

[fluid crane]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @sly hawk

[sly hawk]

Here you go. - I assume this is what you were asking for...

[sly hawk]

Yeah, you won't see much reference to DPI in photoshop.

[dapper zephyr]

when do I choose the DPI? Because I was reading about ideal DPI setting (is that something you choose when you print?)

[sly hawk]

Read the link above if you want, but to be honest, just set your PPI to 300 if you're planning to print, - and use a decent resolution (which will be dependant on how large you plan to print something), and you should be golden.

[raw plover]

how i do fix this?

[sly hawk]

@dapper zephyr If it's an A3 poster for example, aim for maybe at least 3000px high. - Don't go too crazy because......

your computer will not be able to handle the size of the file, as @raw plover has just shown!

[raw plover]

ok

[sly hawk]

How big is your Canvas?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jv_Et8Nb3eI

if it's over 10,000px... try reducing your image size for a moment and see if it fixes it,

[weak comet]

How can I straighten the "wavy" pattern that is inside the selection?

[serene coral]

You can use warping or liquifying

[weak comet]

Thank you. I tried Liquify and it seems I can modify it closer to being straight. However, is there a brushless method? I would like to be able to get it straighter than I am able to get it with a brush and I will likely have many more sections like this to work on.

[inland creek]

I don't really know how it will work but if you don't mind loosing a little bit of detail in the lines you could use motion blur and set it in the direction of the lines

[inland creek]

Make sure you convert it to a smart object firs si that you cand remove the blur from the areas you don't want it in using the smart filters mask. Lasi liquify would be good to use afterwards

[weak comet]

Thank you. I can try that too. I just found out that generative fill and then some clean up works decent.

How to reset brush settings on iPad not the default brush reset?

[vague pawn]

are there actually no other way to draw straight lines without a double click process? if you use low hardness brush you get an overlap at where the line start... how do i draw a straight line with a low hardness brush?

there must be a way to prevent overlap since that would also be useful when painting an area in couple clicks

[serene coral]

you can either do it the other way around - by painting with a full opacity brush and decreasing the layer's opacity, or by making a path and adding a stroke to it

[vague pawn]

im doing it in a similar way to the first option i use full opacity then use field blur but are there actually no way to prevent overlap? in general

i saw graphic artists use brush multiple times on the same area and they dont get overlap

[serene coral]

it goes down to how drawing straight lines by holding shift works - you have to specify the starting point. My first suggestion was not to use a hard brush but a 100% opacity/fill brush and decrease the layer's opacity/fill

[vague pawn]

okay i got it thanks. how about the last part? i see anime artists for example paint the same area over and over again to get it perfect but they dont get overlap. their color doesnt change when they paint the same area

[serene coral]

can you link what you're referring to?

[vague pawn]

https://youtu.be/NN3Ujie54wg?si=j4p02yS1djf6dCLc&t=2206
this is what i mean. goes over the orange part twice but no color change

but its full opacity maybe thats why

so the moment we go low hardness we get overlap....

i get the problem is the way how i approach the same conclusion, i could go with low opacity later on or field blur

but maybe i want to draw with low hardness in the first place

[serene coral]

ok first of all - this is not Photoshop

[vague pawn]

and what i mean by "low hardness" are these brush types

[serene coral]

yes, this is simply a well placed full opacity layer and well chosen color

[serene coral]

if you want the same brush falloff everywhere then blurring the hard-brushed layer is the way. alternatively, you can do it the smart way by using a drop shadow layer style

[vague pawn]

ill look into that thanks

HI @primal vault EPS is a really old format—is there a reason you need an EPS?

If yes, you need to make a clipping path in Ps first, before Saving a copy to Photoshop EPS, 8-bit TIF.

If you're being asked to supply an EPS it may be that they're hoping for a VECTOR file. Google "save photoshop as vector" to get the info you need.

Is the layer a smart object or 'raster'? Try making your selection and then hit copy then paste... then you can move your selection around independently.

You can always 'merge layers' later if you want

I'm on Macs, but here's something that may be helpful, or may lead to something helpful to troubleshoot this? https://www.thewindowsclub.com/change-pc-settings-does-not-open-windows

[sturdy python]

Oh sorry, completely misread your question!

I can still drag and drop it in PS, and it opens fine within Photoshop, but normally if I don't have it open, I would just right-click the file and do Open With, it just saves me opening PS separately.. Which I know only saves me a few seconds, but it's just a matter of habit now, since the function worked for a long time before.

Thank you for the advice and the links you've shared though, I will have a look into them, and it may be something I'd need to ask Microsoft rather than Adobe to be honest.

[willow gale]

It looks like she is looking in the general direction, but also down towards the left character's elbow.

[willow gale]

I was trying to find an answer on the Microsoft site, but couldn't find one quickly enough so yes I agree, ask over there. The article I posted to does give the indication that it can stop working at sounds like that's where you are. Microsoft has a forum and you can certainly find the answer there.

hi chat, does anyone know a free brush set where i can find markers close to this? like really cheap children's markers texture, i know it's an odd request but im really struggling to find something similar to replicate kid's drawings

[half cliff]

is someone able to reduce this gif size to under 5mb? I can´t reduce the size, well cant find a way to do so... anways

[half cliff]

nevermind got it working 😄

[pale bear]

There are some similar looking brushes in photoshop, if you have not imported photoshops legacy brushes I recomend it

[high siren]

and how do i do that?

wait it was a quick googling away

thank you ^^

ill see what i can manage

[pale bear]

you can also go into brush settings and click on "get more brushes" adobe offers lots of free brushes

Thank you for tutorial

But can't I make this image from scratch?

[sly hawk]

(note the key shortcuts used) - This is called 'skewing' if you want to google it.

[cold marsh]

Doesn't work at all

[high siren]

bro i LOVE YOUA

[sly hawk]

You want the DESERT part to fill the entire image/stamp section? - that can be done with masking and scaling easily enough

[high siren]

NEEDED THAT SO BAD

[dim flare]

Yes I want to do that

[dim flare]

How

[sly hawk]

Can you share your PSD file here? - I'll show you exactly with a recording if you want.

[sly hawk]

Are you following the specific instructions? - Like... import the action and get it to appear in the panel etc?

If you can PM me with the action I'll be happy to try it out and see if we can figure out where it's not working, or what you're perhaps doing wrong?

[sly hawk]

(If the "STAMP" shape is already a layer with a transparent pixels around the edge, you can probably just hold CNTRL and CLICK on the layer in the thumbnails panel to select the pixels instead?)

[sly hawk]

(like this)

[dim flare]

OMG

[sly hawk]

that work ok for you? 🙂

[dim flare]

I’ll try tommorow I’m from Paris it’s night for me ahaha

[sly hawk]

If you can explain what you're trying to do, there may be a betterwork flow to follow?

[bleak idol]

Can I mask 2 different images into the symbol?

[rare night]

I've discovered the scripting listener plugin, so I can just use that to capture what I want to do then get ChatGPT to prettify it.

[sly hawk]

Yeah, just open the AI file in photoshop, and it will render a raster version of your image for you to modify/play with. - Or literally copy and paste your assets out of illustator into photoshop.

[sly hawk]

Yes.

[sly hawk]

You see in my video where I put a MASK over a FOLDER, then whatever you chuck into the folder, will have the same mask.

@bleak idol 👇

Hey, drop a PM or respond below and I'll try and help you out when we're both free/available.
Maybe start by posting your image that you want to trace.

You're going to have to be waaaay more specfic.

@vernal dome

[vernal dome]

so what kinda font is good like that

like what are similar fonts

u get it

?

[sly hawk]

I don't have a clue what font that is

[vernal dome]

well like what font is good for that

[sly hawk]

and the fact it's arching, means that a font identifier site would struggle

[vernal dome]

like what kinda font is similar i could use

[sly hawk]

Are you literally using the same image behind it?

[vernal dome]

yea i am making a another logo using same image yes

so i am woundering whats a good font that woul stick out better tht is kinda curved n stuff

feel me

[sly hawk]

Dunno. - Just check out dafont.com and find some that you like the look of.

personally I think that could be improved massively anyway

[vernal dome]

yea

[rare night]

@sly hawk I thought I was nearly there, but then I got:
"General photoshop error occurred. This functionality may not be available in this version of photoshop"
no clue what the actual issue is... real helpful.

EDIT: Added a try {} catch {} and got a bit more info, but still had to scour my code to find the issue, which I now have and it's working.

[fluid wasp]

Does anyone know how to manage the scripts within the scripts menu in Photoshop?

[devout pasture]

but then it would look very jagged and not smooth at all

[strange hull]

thats whats adobe illistrator is for

smooth at all sizes

[serene coral]

what exactly do you mean?

[vapid flume]

You could do that with layer styles but that level of details is probably more likely to be the result of lights and materials done directly in the 3D software used to model the letters.
With photoshop you will be able to add reflections and various effects but you will have some trouble having the effects work accounding to the diffent planes (you'll have to do it manually)
Photoshop have phased out all but the very basic 3D features so it's no longer really an Option.
How was the "TUCQ" work created?
you can try that, but it would work on a text layer, not a 3D lettering effect

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyxth0yQMMU

[vapid flume]

What do you mean by "manage". Do you want to add some?

[willow sable]

Anyone know the best way to put the effect of on a picture of someone

[vapid flume]

The effect of what?

[willow sable]

Like

Making it seem like a rage

The eyes glowing and the face red

[vapid flume]

Do you have a more meaningful example, I have no idea what you are talking about 🙂?

[willow sable]

this to this

[vapid flume]

If you want to transform someone in a completely different person, consumed by rage with the eyes bulging, like this drawing, but on a photo

this is not done with a "filter", just done with skills and hours of retouching 🙂

Just so you know

You need to know either how to draw the different elements yourslef or to "composite" elements taken from another photo into the first person

so assembling multiple photos into one, in a realistic way is called compositing. There isn't a single filter to achieve this, this is done with carefully putting elements together and then maybe apply a lot of filters to make them fit, and then colour correct and light correct the different elements together to they look like they belong to the original image

You could try the generative AI module in Photoshop and see if you can make something out of it, but you'll likely to spend time with trial and errors

https://www.adobe.com/uk/products/photoshop/generative-fill.html

[willow sable]

Alright

Thank you

[vapid flume]

You're welcome!

[plucky egret]

is it possible to export a png with transparent (no background) hue & saturation? like for example could i just make a png with nothing but a hue & saturation layer?

[vapid flume]

Not really, if you want a .png, you need some pixel content, and a hue and sat layer doesn't contain any pixel so it will be seen as completely transparent. If you want to be able to apply a H/S layer to another image (like a prset) you can use other means

Like creating a preset for example... Either an ACR preset or a standard PS reset

[plucky egret]

unforunately this is used for an overlay so having a steady png is not really an option

[vapid flume]

Can you explain the scenario a bit more in depth? Maybe there are ways

[plucky egret]

erm i can share screenshots but it contains art that isn't mine so

[vapid flume]

maybe with a white PNG and a multiply blending mode, that kind of things

No, just explain with words!

Where would you want to be able to apply that overlay? (which software/platform)

[plucky egret]

in the game there are a few elements i don't wish to change (like a mana bar which fills up and goes down constantly, it has a dark grey background and fills up blue) in the photo i was using as reference for placement. i want to change it to pink instead of blue but maintaining that dark grey background when it's empty

and OBS

here would be an example of that

[vapid flume]

Let me think. I've used overlays in OBS but obviously they didn't interact with the existing graphics (a frame that kind of stuff)

Why not uploading a green bar in your case?

a green bar with the rest as transparent

[plucky egret]

oh like make a fake green bar? would that not remove the grey bit?

[vapid flume]

Forget it, I understand what you are trying to do

My mistake

The issue is that I am pretty sure you could do that directly in OBS, but I am not technical enough in OBS (I haven't used it in a long time), without resorting to overlay

I'm thinking in the lines of applying a colour effect in a portion of the image

[plucky egret]

i will be honest i have no idea, it's not for me but my friend 🤣

[vapid flume]

With a specific blening mode so it doesn't affect the whites

I won't be able to answer really, but let me fire up OBS, try to find the right terms and then your friend will be able to go to the OBS help (do they have a discord?) with the right idea

But the definitive answer is that you cannot embed a H/S layer into nothing and save it as a PNG. That point is clear

[plucky egret]

ahh alright, thank you, it's okay you don't have to do all that haha

i wonder if i could create a 1% layer and paint it black behind the hue 🤔

[vapid flume]

so it would be colour corrections in the OBS effects

you could even do that with a LUT

the issue id to apply that colour correction only to a portion of the image

So basically you need to open or create a new source and apply that colour correction effect and then resize it. Easier said than done I guess

[vapid flume]

You could, but my guess is that it will be too faint to register

because the H/S is applied to the pixel content

[plucky egret]

hmmm, i see, thank you. i will have to try both ways and see what i can come up with 🙂 appreciate you!

[vapid flume]

Glad I could help about something I know barely anything about 😂

[plucky egret]

that would make 2 of us lol

[sly hawk]

I know what you mean, but no. You can't export an 'adjustment layer' as a single PNG in the hopes of having it work when you overlay it in a game or web browser.

Obviously you could make a lime green image and set it to 50 opacity before export out as a PNG and then this would 'colour' the the thing behind it in green. - but this this the digital equivalent of taking a sweet wrapper and placing it front of the lens before you take a photo...

[vapid flume]

How dare you nicking my photography tricks? 😅

[fluid wasp]

@serene coral So i had a bunch of scripts installed which populated the Scripts menu in Photoshop. Gets too cluttered to navigate them up so I was wondering if PS allowed putting the scripts in subfolders

In the menu itself. Like submenus

[vapid flume]

Not that I am aware of. I know what you mean, I have a bunch too. I just leave those I need most, and load the off-one when I need to.

though, I know there is a script panel as a plug in somewhere

I haven't tried it so I can't vouch

[fluid wasp]

Worth a try still would have been cool if it did allow us.

I have another question

I use actions with batch processing images. With the Batch option and using an action in it I can do that easily but there's a hurdle I've often came across. Opening of files.

Yeah the batch process has an option to override the opening of file in the action. But I use exr images in Photoshop with a plugin which opens the file with a bunch of options. (Exr.io plugin)
When I create an action, it sure preserves all what happens. And in the action i can see the file is being opened as exr io with the options I selected. But this is applicable if the file is opened from the action.

[vapid flume]

Not sure as I never worked with exr files. Would it do the the same if instaed of working from a batch you create a droplet and batch the files from there? (basically applying the droplet to a specific folder)

[fluid wasp]

If I override it with the Batch processing's override open option it neglects all of those. I was wondering if it was possible to either
a) use wildcards in the path of action's document opening of
b) somehow feed the path of the file being opened from batch processing to the action

[vapid flume]

That would, maybe, bypass the opening of files from a folder

[fluid wasp]

A what?

[vapid flume]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h99QLmLAH8E

I am throwing things there, not sure it will work

Maybe it's something that would be taken care of better in a script than in an action though

[fluid wasp]

Sadly it won't. Also even with a droplet it doesn't particularly seem anything different you couldn't do with batch processing. Bottom line still is processing a bunch of files 😅
The action has a recorded entry for Opening a file. Basically it needed to open a file as a certain extension which would trigger opening of exr io's panel and use the selected option I used while opening the file.

The action records the file being opened and its absolute path. Which means that the action works for that particular file only. Oh it'll do the rest of the stuff just fine.

[vapid flume]

I had some issues in the past processing batches that required an action on a 3rd party software so I know what you are saying, but unfortunately I cannot help here, as it may be completely specific to that 3rd party. I would put it to the good technical people in the Adobe Community forum
https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem/ct-p/ct-photoshop?page=1&sort=latest_replies&lang=all&tabid=all
and tag your post with scripting/action so it get seen by relevant people there.

I haven't had this specific issue of path in Photoshop, but I did had this issue in illustrator and I seriously think that the assets exports options lacks in those two Adobe products compared to one of their competitor. Particularly the bit about opening specific folders with exceptions and saving to specific folders with exceptions (Which is something I would use a lot when batch working on games assets)

But I don't do that kind of stuff anymore and I am pretty sure things have improved since then, which is why I think the Adobe Forum will best suited as there are Adobe devs intervening there, and more niche questions are more likley to be answered than here

[fluid wasp]

Gotcha

[stiff vortex]

hi guys! I am new to using photoshop CC and I am trying to put a logo on a polka dot shirt. What happens is that when I try to distort > displace > then open my displacement mapping, it distorts the logo so much. Here's the actual pic after doing distort > displace. Thanks a lot!

[vapid flume]

Have you tried tweaking the displacement map setting? (basically the number of pixels) as in both scale elements
in my experience, you gotta keep them low to make it work
Although the exact number depends on your image size so if you image is very small (less than 1000 pixels) then it can be tricky to find a scale low enough

also don't forget to blur your distort map enough for it to look realistic in the end

[stiff vortex]

Thanks for the tip! I will try those 🙂

[rare night]

Are all the charIDToTypeID codes documented somewhere? I've found some of them in the Appendix of the scripting guide, but it's far from complete and doesn't give much context. Some are properties of descriptors, some are enumerations, but many of them it's not even obvious what they mean from context.

I think so, but I suspect it would be way more work than doing it in Cinema 4D (or blender, or Substance painter/stager) directly. Illsutrator has some 3D capabilities, but it does not offer a way to quickly make reflections like you have in your example.

It's always worth posting up what you're doing because these days, there's often a quicker, easier approach to completing what you're trying to achieve!

Also.... what do you think is better? Figma or XD?

I've used XD plenty but figured that since it's now just on life-support, I'd better move to Figma, but I didn't like the keyboard shortcuts!

[marble cave]

Thanks James! Great advice. I will have to recall that when I am going nuts 😆
I was using Figma first. Just doodling. But XD was being used by a contractor and I had gotten used to it. There were some frustrations since you can do somethings in Figma you can't do in XD and vice versa.

Now that XD is in its final days, I have moved back to Figma. It is a lot more convenient, but now I am missing some of the XD features. They have their merits, but if you have a mac, I would totally extol the virtues of Sketch over all... well.. the last time i used it at least.

So which is better? I think after using both for some time, my opinion is Figma is better overall. It gives you more control over a lot more things.

I think you've already got photoshop - so instead of me just doing it for you, let me show you two methods instead....

[sly hawk]

Just with a brush tool?

[sly hawk]

Yes, this is what you can do with simple masking...

[crude scarab]

for this, are you able to input specific hex numbers for the color?

[foggy seal]

how can i make an image look like this, distorted and low quality

[crude scarab]

if you want, you can just make it bigger, save it, make it smaller, save it, repeat

you could also probably find some website that will decrease the quality for you

[sly hawk]

Make sure it's a raster image (not smart object) and just shrink it, approve new size, and then stretch it again?

[crude scarab]

finally figured it out 👍

[sly hawk]

Yes. The 2nd method.

[foggy seal]

So basically make it like the canvas size really small?

[crude scarab]

I'm not positive about that, I'd say place it as embedded and do it to the image

[limber jolt]

File - place embedded

[neat ravine]

why if i simply save i only have 5option of format, but if i save as a copy i have more option? is there a way to custome the option? cos i mostly work with jpeg,tif,png,pdf & psd

[river otter]

Save as is to save an original copy so all of its options are editable

Export and saving as a copy has more flexible options

For the most part

I’m not sure if you customize it

But if anything export will be your friend

[vapid flume]

I think it's because Photoshop changed its saving policy a little while ago, and treat "save as copy" as the default

It's in the preferences to change it

[neat ravine]

true, but looking for convenient as if im not mistaken older version most format are listed when saving, my work line dont really need original as we discard daily the submitted, and we find exporting kinda lagging as rather just saving it faster

[vapid flume]

"Enable legacy save as" should be enabled if I remember well

[neat ravine]

okey, another legacy option ima gonna turn on like i do most of the setting on adobe 😆 thx will try

[vapid flume]

test both to see the one that gives you more info

I generally export through Bridge as default, or export as JPEG via quick export so I don't see much of a lag

[river otter]

I wasn’t aware how useful the preferences were

I may start experimenting with it more
