Does Anyone Know How I Can Do This?

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.

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

So I'm trying to get the black on this hood, to match the rest of the car. I'm not very skilled with photoshop but I did a ton of things on it already just can't do color stuff.

Would someone mind matching the colors for me real quick? I would greatly appreciate it!!

Without effects (blending & material generated normals from diffuse):

and with:


Does anyone knows how I can merge these generated by photoshop into the texture? The textu

I've looked around on the internet and I couldn't find the answer anywhere. Is this even possible?

UPDATE:

More information for those who don't know what i'm talking about:



Merge those with the Diffuse texture.

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.

Guys, I could use your input. I created the attached poster for a sports ministry at church. I like my idea (taking my Bible verse and making it a double meaning), but what I am uncertain about are the colors. Because the design contains silhouettes, naturally I used black and white. However, can a black and white poster attract church members' attention on a bulletin board? I like simplicity, not sure about others. Can you please let me know if you would recommend that I color this poster in any other way? Feel free to color this and show me what you've done. Please, I really need your opinion. I have never done this before.

i have a color sample in L,a,b mode used as 3d coordinates. I also know the coordinates of a few other colors (A1,A2,A3,etc) of which A1 and A2 are the closest. A2 in this case is the closest one. how should i measure how many percent of A2 color should I mix with A1 color to get the best match (lowest delta E)? are those dashed lines correct method?

A1 L:85 a:3 b:8
A2 L:80 a:5 b:13
Sample L:81 a:4 b:9

Hi folks,

I've grabbed a free graphic online I want to use on my site, I've made it RGB under 'image -> mode' but when I go 'image -> adjustments -> hugh/saturation' OR '... color ballance' neither has any effect? What am I missing?

My image is at present light grey and I want to give it a blue shade whilst retaining all the darker and lighter gradient effects of the original image if you catch my drift, but nothing works, it just stays grey and it's really bugging me now.

Thanks in advance. Especially as I'm sure it's something obvious. Let me know if you need more info!

Cheers.

I'm having a hard time figuring out how people make these kind of photographs. Is it a texture? An action? Please help :(

Hello! I'm making a poster for silk-screening. Each color needs to be on a separate layer so that each color can be hand-printed one at a time. Foolishly, I did not draw the colors on separate layers. I need a layer for the white outline, a layer for the purple, and the remaining layer the black (which will just be the color of the paper for those familiar with silk-screening). Posterizing doesn't seem to work, and selecting color range doesn't seem to nail it exactly either. I would greatly appreciate any help.

I am attaching the PSD file. Please do not reproduce this image (though i don't know why anyone would!)
