photoshop freezes

  • Dec. 16th, 2009 at 10:41 PM
Checked the tags and google but didn't find it.

I had an psd open. I cropped a picture and copied it in that psd. I copied the psd and then flatten it. But when I try to save it photoshop freezes. It worked fine the rest of the day. But if I flatten the psd I opened and then try to save it it works fine. Anyone know what the problem could be?.

Yes, the newbie.

Okay dokay, so I have looked at I don't even know how many tutorials, and I guess they're those 'recipes'(?) because they seem to only be usefull to that specific photo. The photo's I am working with are screencapes, and I just don't know what to do with them to make them look nice. I guess what I'm wanting is to make the photo over-all more bright. It seems really dull to me, also just sharpening it doesn't really help. I've played with it and nothing seems to be good to me. I would like the colors (like in the flowers) to pop. I hope thats specific enough. ^.^ Any help would be greatly appreciated. One of the photos as an example is under the cut.

Today I finally decided I was going to buy PS after putting it off for so long. I even got it home, found out I didn't have the right kind of disc driver for it and went out and bought an external one just so I didn't have to return it. So after all this money spend and time waste, I get it home and I'm pumped. I honestly was really looking forward to being able to mess around with selective colouring adjustments and the such. Except I bought Elements and didn't know that Elements didn't allow you to do so. I saw an old post here saying something about a plug in you could download for it. I tried the link out but it was a reaaaaally old post and the link didn't work anymore. I tried googling somethings and nothing came up.

Does anyone use PS Elements and found a plug in for selective colouring? I've looked all over and can't find a thing. I'd appreciate if anyone could help or leave some feedback or links or anything!

Everytime I try to open some pictures, I get this message.

It's not any certain picture, but just randomly that'll come up. I've tried restarting the program, but this continues to happen. The files are .PNG and .JPG so, yeah... Help?

Cropping? Resizing?

  • Dec. 13th, 2009 at 8:34 PM
Okay, so, recently i got my own copy of Photoshop (2) and i wanted to try making some icons. I found some very nice magazine scans that i wanted to use, but i can never crop the area i wanted into 100 by 100.

I read through a few pages from this comm on cropping, and i tried all the ways, but still could not crop it.

i tried using the crop tool, setting it to 100px by 100px and cropping it, after i press enter (or the tick button) it turned into a very very small square.

I tried the marquee tool and select the area i want and pressed the Image>Crop button, it work, but it's not 100x100 so i had to resize it. I cliked Image>Image Size and made the 'Pixel Diamension' to 100 by 100 and the column below to 72 resolution. (Am i suppose to do that?) and it turned into that very very small square. I can hardly see the picture/faces that i wanted.

What should i do?

(I know nuts about photoshop and making an icon, so please kindly guide me along!)

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone could tell me what to do.

When I try to import videos into Photoshop, I keep getting this error:


I installed Quicktime, and I'm still getting the error. I've restarted my computer, I've put Quicktime running in the background, nothing is really working. I keep getting this error.

Anyone know how I could fix it? I used Photoshop CS3, and I download videos with Any Video Converter.

Cutting Out Hair Strands?

  • Dec. 12th, 2009 at 1:08 AM
I swear I saw a tutorial like this somewhere either here or on another Photoshop tutorial website, but I can seem to unearth it. So I'll ask you fellow people...

I am trying to take this image and cut it out in Photoshop CS4. In the background I am using ( making a DVD cover... ), I can NOT set it in Lighten or Screen. I checked through the memories and tags and couldn't find a tutorial that really answers my problem. :(

ANY help is appreciated.

Here is a screenshot of what's going on.

Nothing is wrong with PS or anything, it's just I want to know how to achieve this...
( and I don't know how to tag this; first poster, so don't eat me )

And I have seen this tutorial, but PSCS4 doesn't include the "Filter > Extract" option, so that's unusable.

EDIT: With the image I am using there isn't contrast; so when I use a tutorial like this it will come to no good due to the fact the hair merges with the background, since it's dark. Help?

Hi. =)

I was wondering if anyone had a tutorial to do this:


I did find this one, but I'm looking for one that allows you to to work with an image (or brush, or whatever), rather than text.

Much appreciated!!

Sharpening Using High Pass Tool

  • Dec. 10th, 2009 at 10:33 PM
Sometimes the sharpening tool on Photoshop just doesn't cut it. I don't always sharpen icons, but sometimes they need it. I accidentally stumbled upon a tutorial directing people how to use high pass to sharpen images. I thought it was amazing and knew I had to share it with you all!

So, from this: you have this: rather than this:

I exaggerated the bad sharpening on purpose.

Program: Photoshop Elements 4
Steps: Two? Three?
Difficulty: Easy peasy.
Translatable: I think so. All you need is overlay and high pass.
PSD: Nope


It's pure magic! )
