Guys, there's something wrong with my paint bucket tool. Every time I use it, it doesn't fill the selection I make. The bucket tool makes blotches instead of flooding the selection I made with the color of my choice. Can someone help me??

A bit late, but chances are your tolerance is too low. On the paint bucket tool, there's a setting for "tolerance". Up it in 10s/20s, you'll get how it works after testing it.

Alternatively, if you're trying to make a shape or something, make a new layer and the selection should fill regardless of the background.

^Thanks! That sure helped a lot

by the way, I wanna ask another question..

I saw the tutorial here about "photo manipulation"...and I was wondering if I can also paste (or manipulate) a person's facial features by using someone else's facial features as a guide? I was playing with Yeon Jihee and Ga-In's photos, and I was wondering if I can paste Ga-In eyes on Jihee to see the difference (without making it look like photoshopped)^^

^I second this.

How do I do this effect in photoshop?

This isn't my tutorial.. but i googled it ("photoshop HDR cs5") and read through the post and it's pretty straight forward and the results look good! let me know if it works out for you

Hello guys! I need help!

for this image, I want to know how you get the rainbowish part. And how there are lines on it, yeah I want to know how you get this type of result??

for this one, I want to know how you get the diagonal lines in the background as well as how you get the transparent waves? (If that made any sense LOL). Basically how to get a background like this.

hi everyone, this might seem like a stupid question because real photographers would probably say film is film and digital is digital....

well im not a photographer by any means, im just a photography enthusiast and i cant get my hands on a film camera but i love how film looks.

is there a way to create the film photo look by using Photoshop actions? or where can i get photoshop actions in general? i know deviantart has some but ive only found a few that are similar to what im looking for.

here are some samples of film photos I want to emulate:

shot with minolta x700

shot with nikon fg-20

if you look closely at the first picture there are some dust and scratches on it and these photos are faded with slight grain. i tried to achieve this look but to no avail.

also im using an Android phone and i have an app called Camera360, one of the filters is called "Japanese style" and it makes pictures look kind of like this

theyre low contrast but don't look dull

I have a problem with my typing tool, I opened up my photoshop and clicked on the typing tool, I couldn't type anything because the font size was --2845093 pt, I went to my paragraph palette and noticed that everything was also in that same number. I know the default is 0pt, and so I changed it to 0pt. But...when I use my typing tool, still nothing shows up. I do see my typing cursor blinking but it's EXTREMELY small. Does anyone know how to fix this?

It tells me to restore it to it's last valid value...how do i do that?

[fabrications.]

^ That used to happen to me a lot. =/ I always just closed the program out and opened it again and usually it went back to normal. And if you can't figure it out, you could always just make the number really big. XD

4jsis4:

It's all about the pen tool when it comes to those "transparent waves." Something similar was most likely used to create that shape in the first picture too. (Personally I'm not very good at it; I just use it to cut stuff out )

But I have some links to tutorials

tirahbunny:

The style of those pictures looks like something only a professional camera would be able to authentically create. XD But no fear! I guess you could try to emulate it on Photoshop. For those first two picture, try sharpening the picture and then using the blur tool around the object you want to focus on. Then try sharpening it again after the blur tool (basically just go back and forth). But do it subtly so it won't be so overwhelming. Also, the dust and scratches could be done with the help of some grungy textures (just erase away whatever parts you want so there won't be so many scratches). And for the last two pictures, you can still use the whole sharpen and blur method combined with going to Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Exposure and mess with the settings to your liking. I hope you understand? If not, I could always try making a tutorial

This is the same photo effect that ulzzangs use, right? I googled this effect you are talking about and I found this one: Photoshop VIntage Effect. It may not look the same as the photos you posted, but it's somewhat close. Hope I got it right.

[Guest Shiroiyuki]

If you can change the colors of your eyes in photoshop, then how can you change the shape of your eyes? Like, make it chinkier? I've been wondering how to do that since bloating tool makes your eyes bigger...

[jisol]

^ the liquify filter has the pucker tool and forward warp that can probably do the trick

but you have to set the density of the brush and the speed just right so it doesn't look

horribly unrealistic...

[Guest Shiroiyuki]

^Thanks a lot jisol!

another question, how do ulzzangs do that 'dewy' looking skin in photoshop?

[Guest kitkat046]

How can I make this kind of color effect?

It's all over Tumblr and stuff. Can you show me how to do it on Photoshop?

dont know if i should post here but umm...

there this bubble thing i wanna learn but its hard to understand

can someone tell me step by step of tools i should be

useing to make this bubble here -___- this info

is kinda hard to follow... TT__TT

[Guest dreamskye.]

^ what part exactly do you have a hard time understanding?

basic tools you use are the brush and eraser tool. Play around with opacity settings to get desired effect.

kitkat046

first increase contrast by duplicating layer and setting to soft light/overlay

go to selective color --> neutral --> increase cyan

go to red --> increase yellow and red

play around w/ selective color to get desired effect

[Guest always_urs]
