Photoshop Cs5, Acr 5.1, Auto Adjustements ???

Hello, I am looking to fix the barrel distortion- fisheye effect of photos taken from my quadcopter. From the altitude, the lens distortion is very pronounced.


So, within Photoshop CS6 went to "filter" Menu -> Lens Correction ...and under "Auto Correction" -> "Camera Make" Gopro does not appear in the dropdown list like it does in the online videos I have found to correct this.


..What gives?

Hi, how can I enable "auto place" in free transform mode ? I click something, and now I have free transform without some placing (in the middle of bg, on sites....) - like when you press ctrl.

I have several images in different layer in PS3 ( macro images with different points of focus).
I have aligned all layers ok, but when trying to blend the layer (all layers selected) using the auto blend layers tools, the tool does not give me the stacked images button.
Instead it launches straight into the process.
The results are not what I am expecting, each layer bar one has a totally black mask, and the image is not a blend of all the images.
All tutorials for the process using CS3 show a button for selecting "stack images" mine doesn't.
Am I doing something wrong?
Please help as I am going mad with it

Hi Gurus,

Programmer here. I've been asked to do technical spec brochures for the company. Considering I'm not good at photoshop at all, I'd like to do automate as much as possible and have to do the least amount of manual work possible and make a template completely reusable.

I need these automated parts :

- Image of product easily replaceable
- List of specs easily editable
- Can add tabs and highlight one of them in order to show what category of products you are viewing (additional explanation : say, if you were looking at a product related to video surveillance you would have the tabs "cable", "camera", "recorder"; if you were looking at a product related to computers you would have the tabs "HDD", "processor", "monitor", "accessories"). The individual tabs must adjust their length so that the tab bar stays at constant length
- More generally, I want the individual visual elements to be able to adapt to different dimensions to keep the general look of the page aesthetic

And I need these constants :

- Logo and address at the top
- "Specifications" subtitle
- Tab bar is of constant length

I have an idea on how to program it with vector graphics in Java but it seems like an overcomplicated solution for this task. Is there a way to do this kind of task in Photoshop ?

We have a project where the final media will have a color palette limited to 454 colors. We have a conversion from the media's color selection to RGB. So, from an XML file I created a CSV file, meaning I have both if necessary, of 454 colors with a name and their RGB values.


I need to create a color library so that I can put an image in photoshop and then change it to indexed color so that it ONLY uses these 454 colors.


Is there a way to convert or compile my csv/xml file to a photoshop ACT file? I feel like there must be. I do *not* want to enter 454 colors by hand.


Thanks so much for any advice. Attached is a screenshot for reference.

When I try to trace an image with the pen tool, the tool will auto fill in my design. I cannot get the pen tool to trace only. How do I turn off the option to auto fill? Please see attached for an example.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

I am sorry if I don't use the correct jargon throughout this post, I am a very occasional user of Photoshop!

I have Photoshop CS4 Extended.

I want to create an "inverse" layer.

Here's what I mean:

1) create a new canvas.

2) Choose a large, bold font and write on the canvas (E.g. "Hello World").

3) Select all the letters (using the magic wand tool, click on each letter while holding down the shift key)

4) Invert the selection.

5) Get stuck, no idea what to do next. Try various things and get nowhere!

I want to make a new layer that contains the inverted selection as a shape that I can do things to like any other shape (e.g. in the shape library).

So, for example, I could fill the surrounding area with red and the letters will be transparent.

I've tried converting the inverted selection to a clipping mask, but after that I get in a bugger's muddle.

Perhaps I am going about this in completely the wrong way? Perhaps there's a better way?

Once again, I apologise if I sound like a three-year-old trying to explain something to an adult, but that's the extent of my knowledge of Photoshop!!

Imagine the picture posted is a piece of yarn...Is there a way in photoshop to "stretch" this yarn into a straight line. In other words, is there a way to copy the color gradient and apply it to a straight line with all of the relative distances between colors preserved?

Hi All,

I have an question regarding the indexing of colors I have not found an answer to online. I have a set of 400 indexed colors that are real life, profiled paint colors I use. I would like to simplify images to (e.g. the mona lisa). To say 20 colors, or any custom number i choose.

The limit with indexed photoshop colors seems to be 256, this means when i import my custom 400 color pallet, only the first 256 appear in the custom color table and the images miss many of the necessary colors to make the image seem balanced.

Is there an additional tool / program to get around this? Is there a script that could be written? If help is beyond a quick answer, but can be achieved, I am happy to pay for time.

Note: I cannot reduce my pallet to 256, as it will not produce enough variation and detail, dithering of any kind is also not an option.

Thanks in advance

Hey guys,

So I'm a rather new music producer and I make some wallpapers for my tracks using Photoshop and then put some effects in there using Adobe After Effects.
So I usually just use either a gradient or an image in there, but it's rather hard to find images without copyright that look good and fit the track title.
And gradients kinda look boring (just a few colors that overflow).

So I was wondering how people make these kind of backgrounds:


(quality kinda sucks because I had it on 480p by accident, but you get the point)







Or a bit different style like this:


Or this:



Thanks in advance!


EDIT: I know the "READ ME BEFORE POSTING" thread clearly said "rather use img tags instead of linking to external websites" but it kept saying that I exceeded my tags by 20. So yeah, changed it into this. If anyone wants me to upload it to Imgur or something instead I'll do that.
