[fnftwo] Another one from Carolaine's site

This really is a gorgeous tutorial, and I just didn't change a thing.  It took forever to make, and I had to resize it quite a bit, and it still is a very large letter.   Huggers, Bobbi

My version of this tutorial.  Only thing I changed was the tube, it's kind of hard to change these tutorials...

[Photoshop-Haven] Re: Color repair of longhouse photo

Hi, John. From a graphic designer's perspective I am only interested in
making white white or close to white, gray's neutral, and shadows with
detail. It also helps to remember that a sky in Alaska is probably a deep
medium blue and trees are overall green. I don't need to know much
about the house other than I am guessing that certain parts of the
carvings are white. I start from there.

What I don't understand yet, and this is because I do not color correct
for a living, but, why this should not be a simple correction. All it seems
is color photographing through a colored glass. So I figure if I can
somehow remove the caramel overall color, the remaining is the
actual photo. But saying it and doing it is not as simple as I thought,
or maybe it is in CS3 Photoshop and I am to learn how, I hope.

If anyone else can help get me over this learning hump, I would
appreciate your input.

[PSP-Snags] Re: OT: Question.. which Photoshop Elements is the best?

Hi Marcia,

I currently have Photoshop CS4 and like it a lot!!!!

I also have PSP 9 and love it. I had PSP 8 and using PSP 9 version was not that hard at all.

 

I've heard of Photoshop Elements, there's also gymp (free) very similar to Photoshop.

I started with PS 7 and is very diffrent from CS4 but I recommend it, you can do sooooo much. Let me know if you want Photoshop,we had a 4shared file sent to the group a while back.

 

Hope this helps,

 

: )

Subject: [PSP-Snags] OT: Question.. which Photoshop Elements is the best?

I am thinking about purchasing PSE, and I wonder which one is the BEST?  I know sometimes the newest isn't always the best, the easiest to find things to work with etc.  I have a trial version of 5.0, and downloaded a trial for 7.0, but they will only last 30 days.  I also have PSP and I think I liked version 8 better than I like my XI so far.. but perhaps I will learn to like XI a bit more later as I get more used to it.  So opinions please on which one you like the best if you use PSE?
