Deckled Edge

Using CC2014, when I use the Quick Selection tool, and then
try to us Refine Edge and the Refine Radius brush, the brush
will not open. Instead, I get that circle with a slash where the
brush should be.

In the tutorials, the brush works. Not for me.

Simple setting error?

Hello!

I am trying to reshape a round image, with a very distinct texture and edge quality, into various different shapes. Most shapes will just have a small section knocked out of the circle (like turning an O into a C), but I want to maintain the edge quality and interior texture. I've played around with a few things but can't figure out the best way to accomplish this. Any ideas? What would you guys do?

Here is an image of a coffee stain to use as an example.



I'd like to turn it into a rounded "C" shape, like this:


Thanks so much for your help!

Hello,
I am not sure if this is even a necessary worry of mine nut I will pitch it out anyway. I will be printing the attached file on the back of a white t-shirt and I wondered if there was any technique that could be used to reduce the harshness or abruptness of the image that may be seen when the image is printed onto the white shirt. The color at the edges of the image is very light / almost white so fortunetly in most areas of the print you may not be able to clearly see the edge. if I am not making any sense I guess what I am trying to say is I would like for it to seem like the image fades away at the edges slighhtly rather than seeing a clear edge of the picture. I could imagine using some kind of edge eraser tool with a spotty brush or partial opacity but not really sure the best way to try and achieve it. The picture unfortunetly has texy of my url running very close to the edges so I would like to be careful that we don't fade any text away. Just wondered I would see if there was a quick and easy way to do it. Ideas are welcome. If you do any work please post back your .psd file and a brief description (if it's not too complex) of how you did what you did.
Thanks,
Joe

Hello Photoshop Guru forum, I think I need one such guru's help for something- I'm trying to conform a graphic logo image with text (currently using a non-vector) to curve along the edge of a circle without distorting the letters and such. The warp tool is somewhat helpful but too haphazard. In general I use PS more for painting and such, so my experience working with paths is limited.. anyone know what technique makes the most sense in this situation?

To reiterate, this is for a sticker project, so I'm trying to wrap a logo along the edge of a circular sticker. It doesn't occupy too much space, as it's going along the curve with other text. Using Photoshop CS4 on a Mac. Thanks for any assistance you guys can offer.

I have hundreds of dancer photos I need to change backdrops on. I don't have an issue with hair but many of the pictures the dancers are wearing crowns which is so time consuming I may never finish the photos. Can someone please give me a suggestion on how to handle the crowns? Here is an example of one I've completed but not completely happy with:



I have searched everywhere but only find tutorials on hair.

I am using CS6 and using the quick selection tool and refine edge.

Thanks in advance,

Bill

Unfortunately the pattern stamp tool insists on having one or two pixel-wide white edge on my touch ups. No brush type or amount of hardness I choose from the tool options bar gets rid of this. Any idea how I can set the pattern stamp tool to have a hard edge, so hard there's absolutely no fade to white at all on the edges.

Okay, so here's the deal. I have a vintage valentine card that I want to sell as a printable. Currently though I am unable to print this out myself. The problem with this is that I can't take product sample pictures of this image in various uses. Right now I would like to create a "photo" of this vintage card as it would look if someone printed it out on card stock paper, then cut it out along the image outline. This would give a fold-able "greeting card" style, but the card would not be your typical square or rectangle, as the person would cut out the card along the image edge.


Here is the vintage valentine. It is in PNG format to preserve the transparent background.




Here is a similar example of the effect I want to create:


But I want to make the above effect, as if the valentine was cut out along the image edges, and not simply printed on a rectangular card. How would I create a product sample use "photo" with the vintage image in a cut out, standing up, card image?

I hope that makes sense.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Cheers,
Chyina

Its probably me again but the 'Load Files into Stack...' script in PS CC 2014 doesn't seem to want to play.

[ With no document open and loading a list of 5 images ]
I get two documents created, one with just the last file in the list opened and the other with a blank layer, the same image as the other document and a vertical guideline way off to the left.

This works fine in PS CC but not in 2014.
(CS6 works ok too)

Can anyone just confirm if its me or if it really doesn't work in 2014.

Many thanks.

Regards.
MrTom.

Hi everyone!
I found a video on you tube on how to make burn edge effect on your photo. Everything looks great..except that it seems the paint brush i used to erase the edges left an "impression" LOL. It started to show up when i did the "Inner Glow" command. As you can see on the photo attached. How do i get rid of this?? I should add that I'm new to photo shop.

Thanks for everyone's help. I do appreciate it

Hello,
I am new at this so thanks for helping me out. I am making a fiber art portrait from a photograph. I need to duplicate the colors in the photo with fabric. I know in Corel you can select the eyedropper, click on the image, and produce a sample of the color to then print out and take to the fabric store to match. I have spent the evening trying to do this in Photoshop. I have used the eyedropper, used the 3x3 pixel, get the circle with the color, but cannot figure out how to drop them somewhere to then print out to take to the fabric store. Is is possible to do that? Any other suggestions if not? It's a total of about 6 colors as I have applied the Posterize feature. Thank you.
