Automating Tasks For Technical Specs/brochures

Hi,
I'm wondering if this is possible:
The right side is what I'm trying to achieve.
It's a simple enough effect, but the problem is that I'm curious if it can be some sort of dynamic effect in that I can change the "A" text to "B" and still have the outline cut out of the "M" (Or whatever if I need to change the "M" text to "Q" or something).
Basically I need the "A" and "M" to be able to change while the stroke of whatever the "A" letter (or shape) is will always cut out whatever shape, text, or image is placed behind it.
Is this possible without having to manually cut it out of the back image every time?

The illusion can easily be created by having a white background and using a white stroke on the "A" (that creates the effect I'm wanting)..
However I need them to be transparent and easily editable so they can be saved as transparent images for multiple uses quickly and easily.
(I apologize if I didn't get this across very clearly)

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?

Hey Gurus

I pop in a few times to learn new Photoshop tricks or to get a little help.

I'm a bit far away from my home computer at the moment so I guess I need help, at the moment. xD Hopefully, it won't take much of your time.



The sticker on first car, the one that says "OneWeekDrivingCourse.co.uk" and the logo along with it. I need them to be on the second car on the same area. (Note: The sticker that says 'quicksilver" and the indicator light don't need to be included.)

Hope it's not too much of a tedious task. :c

Please and (hopefully) thank you!

Hello Everyone!

I need something creative help. I don't really know how to use photoshop that well other than basic functions. I have recently started getting serious about my photography, and had just picked out my watermark. My Photography alias is "Mr. Infinity". I had outlined my watermark, but want something custom done to it.


Here it is:





I am using this infinity symbol, but would like to see what it would look like if the letters "Mr." and "Mister" were somehow embedded on the bottom left curved line. Somewhat like this, but on the left side:




Of the full "Mr. Infinity Photography" like this:




Any creativity you want to embed in it is fine with me. Looking for someone who is good at photoshop, and wouldn't mind taking a couple minutes to help me out.


Thanks in advance.

I mean, this seems a little silly, but when I try making it, just looks like a line on the finger, or the neck. Probably because I don't know how to add this "3D feeling". do you guys know how to make that look real, like the gem is "poppin' out"? as seen, I don't really know how to explain it clearly, but I hope u guys understand it. if someone knows a technique to make this, please tell me cause it is gettin' me on my nerves. thx!



I'm trying to work with these pictures and these (for the ring) (for the necklace)

I am trying to make some videos using still images but want to add some creativity to them. I want to be able to make certain subjects in the images pop out like in the following two videos:

(I can't post links so you will have to search you tube for the following videos)
1. George Strait's "Troubadour" official video (use these search words: "george strait troubadour")
2. Cee Lo Green's "Thank you" video (use these search words: "thank you cee lo green" -its the firefighter video)

Sorry for not posting links but my account is not allowed to post links yet.

I want to use the 3d/pop-out style effects. I am not sure where to start on how to get certain elements in the image to pop out and others blur into the background. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,
l would really appreciate some help since I am coming to a deadline for printing some material. My problem seems to me like it should be quite eas, I have come close to a sufficient solution on my own but still not quite good enough resolution to print 24"x18" signs. In any case my issue is that I have an old design file of mine for a 5"x3" sticker with a logo on it as seen. When I try to enlarge it to the 24"x18" size the edges are way too pixelated. I have tried different selection techniques as well as refining the edges but no luck to make a high res version as yet. It's a rather simple shape and frankly I don't even care if it is redrawn to match at high res. In any case here is a copy of the logo in its native size on a 24x18 photoshop canvas. There is an image and an attachment Photoshop file, I would greatly appreciate it if someone can download the photoshop file and repost it with their efforts.
Thanks,
Dino

Hello to PGurus! This my 1st Post & I am thankful for the resource(s) offered here!
My ?: I have MacBook Pro Ver. 10.6.8 w/ 8 gig RAM. The filter " Fractalius " only works on Windows. They will not make a Mac Version. So, can I run Photoshop CS-5 Extended through VirtualBox Ver. 4.16 software with XP on it (which I already have used to run Microsoft "Access" DataBase software), and be able to use this filter for my projects? Or is there any better way to achieve the same result? Thank You for your advice.

Hello everyone, I'm fairly new to Photoshop CS 5 so I apologize if I am asking the wrong type of questions, here goes:

When working with Vector Masks can you:
1) "Link" or "share" one image's vector mask with other images? (ex. If I made "Building A" then duplicated it, but then wanted to change what Building A looked like, I would only have to change the source mask and the copies would be updated.
2) Move the image independent of the vector mask (it seems like I can only move the vector mask, not the image itself). Or in other words: can I move the image and have the mask follow it, instead of only being able to move the vector mask inside of the image boundaries?

My application of the question:
I'm making a 2D top down layout of a "city block" type area. To fill in the buildings, I've made Building A,B,C etc, and use multiple copies of each building. Ideally, I would like to be able to "link" or share say Building A's vector mask with all the other instances of Building A (so that when I change the master, they all change to the new mask shape). The second behavior I'm trying to find is the ability to move the layer without moving where the Vector Mask is on that layer (since it seems that you can only move where the mask is, meaning that even if I could share masks, they would all end up in the same place meaning I would have to re-position each one by hand again.

Any ideas are appreciated, thank you for reading.

Last night I attempted to attach an image to a reply to one of these posts. There's an icon that says "insert image". I clicked that and the choices were "from Computer" or "from URL". I chose "Computer" and then hit a dead-end... there were no more buttons to push to actually insert my image.

Can somebody please tell me how to attach a jpeg image, once I get to the point described above?
