Must See : Photoshop Edits

Hello All-

I don't understand how to go back & forth between ACR and PS with Raw (Nef) files. From ACR (after basic edits) I open to PS as "smart objects" having saved the last ACR settings before so, as a "snapshop" in ACR. This 1st snapshot is always available to the end. Once in PS I create a new Levels adjustment layer (for color correction) then return to ACR for further edits. After my final edits in ACR I take a snapshot. I now hit the OK button to return to PS for any final edits and "Save As" from there.

It doesn't matter if layers are merged or flattened before the save to Tif from PS, but when I go back into ACR I don't have a snapshot of the last edits I made within ACR, only the very first snapshot of the basics.

Why can't I save my last edits from ACR as snapshots within ACR before going to PS to save?

I would like to toggle between the two programs and save the edits in ACR snapshots within the original Raw file, yet be able to access the first snapshot that is the untouched raw file. I would like to do the edits, keep them, and retain an original raw file. I don't see how to do it going between ACR & PS.

This was a horribly confusing question to write, I did my best to explain it. Thanks for any suggestions at all....

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if someone could please help me out. I do not have Photoshop, so I just downloaded GIMP tonight. I am beginning to learn the ropes but would really like a photo edited in the mean time.

There is an annoying pipe in the 2 attached photos that I would like to be removed, if possible. If anyone can spare a few minutes to remove it that would be awesome. Also, the lion in the first picture doesn't seem to be as rich in color and/or in focus as he is in the second picture, so if a certain effect (the picture seems "whiter" than the 2nd, so maybe it's too bright?) can be used to help him stand out that would be great. I trust your opinions/suggestions, so if you want to mess around with it and add certain things please do. I'm sure these two edits are very basic (item removal and sharpening/adding color to an image), so I hope to learn how to do it in GIMP within the next few days.

Thanks so much

Hello everyone,

One year ago I posted a photo of a friend to do some funny pictures with it. (Photoshop Request : Have Fun)

Now I ask you just to have fun with another photo of another friend.



Maybe for the first idea I thought about a butterfly... If you have other ideas have fun !

I would very much appreciate it if me and the red headed girl could be cropped from the photo (I'm wearing a suit and holding a champagne glass and she's next to me haha) and be photoshopped into the 'party' image in a really cool way :P it's just for something silly haha. I reckon it would work best if it's inserted onto the side and she is on the corner anyway. If that doesn't work, maybe just crop me and put me into the photo thanks! Love you guys!

Hello guys! A friend of mine wants me to take a photo of him similarly as the image attached in this post. I wonder if the "warm" colours of this photo have been created by the lighting setup or by a PS filter; if so, how can I recreate it? Thank you very much for your attention.

P.S. Sorry for my English, i'm Italian

Hello PSGs!

I was wondering if there were any techies out there that could answer a question for me.

I'm retouching with CC on a superpowered Mac at school. I don't do video or 3D editing, just compositing, beauty retouching, etc. (tons of layers but nothing too insane). Most of the files I'm working on are full sized 23mp images at 16bit, and I also work on large (up to 1GB) scans (tiffs from fff files).

I'm buying a 27" (non-Retina/5K) iMac for home use, and was wondering if anybody knew if there was a real performance issue with the storage (it comes standard with Serial ATA 1TB but I was considering upgrading to 512GB flash instead) once you're inside the program, or does the difference mainly translate to faster start-up and opening applications? Has anyone on here upgraded and noticed a difference?

I've read about a zillion forums and talked to multiples salespeople but I am hoping for PHOTOSHOP users specific direct experience. If it takes a second or two longer to open CC I don't care about that, and I'd rather invest the $500 upgrade fee somewhere else.

As it is I'm upgrading from 3.4/i5 to 3.5GHz i7, upgrading the Graphics card from 2GB to 4GB and upgrading the RAM to 16GB. Does anybody with direct experience know if that extra $500 for the upgrade to the flash storage is going to translate into much more than a quicker launch?

I hope I'm not posting this in the wrong area, I'm new to the forums but excited to join!

Thanks!

Hey guys, how're ya? so I happen to have a photo which is quite far but still somewhat similar to this photo I found on Reddit. I live in a country where the lunar festival this coming Sept 8th is celebrated so I was wondering if it were possible for my photo to be edited to something as awesome as this photo I got from Reddit?

I'm unaware of the technique required for adjusting the lighting of my flash, be it on the camera's flash or in Photoshop, so I was wondering if fellow photoshop gurus could give it a go for me and see how close it turns out? :P

Here's a moon image (hoping it is high res enough, if attachment isn't too high res then here's the link http://imgur.com/lJnQSKb) that I think would be nice to add in. Hoping to get the result in as high res as possible if it is not asking for too much. I thank you guys for reading my post and wish everyone to have a great Friday ahead! Cheers

I have no experience what so ever with Photoshop etc, and I wanted to make a logo for our Instagram profile. I tried a few times but some horrible things came out. Hence I started looking on google and found this forum. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me out.
I need a logo of the Galatasaray (soccer/football club) logo and the Dutch national flag mixed in a way. This is for a Dutch Galatasaray fan account.

Note that the Instagram profile picture is round.

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

This an image of myself. I have been trying to make it an overall better photo but I'm failing miserably. I know the background is a bit distracting, but I need help. I need this photo for my website, so I need it to look more like a professional portrait. Maybe some makeup, remove the background to something less noisy, sharpen it a bit, basically make it look like a model. Is that even possible? lol The reason I need to use this photo is it is the only one I have of myself with hair extensions in. My website is for hair extensions, so I feel this image is necessary. I do not currently have them in and do not want to put them back in for one picture. They are too long lasting for that.
Can anyone help me please? If not, can someone give me detailed instructions to do so in photoshop elements 9? Thank you!!
