How to Restore Old Photos with Photoshop by: Michael Wysmierski

2009-08-05T01:33:00.000-07:00

There are times that people may have old photographs they would like to restore to save the memories. Photos usually get damaged through the times. The pictures may get blurred, the color fades and the picture might acquire marks and scratches. Thank the technology of today. People can now save and restore their old photos with the help of Photoshop.

Here are some steps to follow in restoring old pictures using the Photoshop.

1. The person may use the Elements in Photoshop, which are Dust and Scratch Filter to remove the marks, scratches an blots in the photo. The Dust and Scratches Filter is located on the Menu Bar and click on the Filter Tab. A drop down will list elements and then he can choose the Noise tab and select on the Dust and Scratches.

2. After clicking on the Dust and Scratches menu, a window will pop up with two control sliders. The first slider is for the Radius and the other one is for the Threshold. There will also be another window if the preview box will be checked. These are the main options that will be used in treating the picture.

3. Adjusting the Radius slider may remove the scratches. However, there is a tendency that overdoing it may make the edges blurred too. If that happens, the option is to adjust the Threshold slider and this will allow the details to go back and make the picture clearer with the scratches disappearing. The person should be careful not to set them too far or it will only create blotches on the picture.

4. In removing the marks, selecting the whole photo will not diffuse these marks. The option is to select only the part where the scratches are located. He may use the Lasso to do this.

5. He can then feather the edges of the selected area so that the selected area will not be obvious on the picture. He can do this by clicking the Feather option and click the Scratch and Dust Filter again. He can do the process again of adjusting the Radius and Threshold sliders to get the texture needed and remove the scratches.

6. It there are still visible marks on the other parts of the picture, he can do the technique again by selecting the areas he would like to adjust. To finish the process and make the picture presentable, he can crop the image enough to remove the cracks and torn edges of the picture. The canvas may be use to equally crop the image.

7. A person may add drama on the picture by adding a drop shadow on it. This will make the picture appear as if it has been lifted off the page. The color may also be removed using the controls Shift+Ctrl+U. He can then add color by putting a little amount of Sepia. He can do this with the Hue or Saturation tab. The contrast may be adjusted using the Levels option.

This is one easy way on how to remove the blotches and marks on an old picture. This is also a good way to make the picture look new but still appear classical. It will be a pleasant and easy way to display pictures kept on old albums and cabinets for a long time.

Adobe Photoshop v Adobe Illustrator

2009-07-22T23:14:00.000-07:00

What are the differences between Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator? Produced by the same company, there are some that say the difference between the two programs is small. In actuality, adobe illustrator takes some key elements of Adobe Photoshop to the next level and beyond.

Abobe Photoshop is a very popular program used by digital photographers around the world. The abundance of Photoshop tips and tutorials make this a very easy program to learn and to use. Photoshop can be used to take any existing image and give it a professional, polished looked. Borders can be added and pictures tweaked to look better than any digital camera could make possible. Almost anything you can imagine doing to a picture is capable when using Adobe Photoshop.

Abobe Illustrator is a different program entirely. Illustrator is a vector-based drawing program that allows you to create your own unique graphics. Adobe Illustrator graphics can be used in print, online, in video, and even on your cell phone. Want to create your own background for your cell phone? It’s possible when you have adobe Illustrator, and something that can’t be done with Photoshop alone.

Both programs are vastly talked about on the web. You will find a huge array of Photoshop tutorials and illustrator tutorials, illustrator and Photoshop tips. Forums, chat rooms, and discussion groups that focus on both programs are also abundant on the web. Once you start looking, you’ll find more and more information on Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator.

While Photoshop does have some Photoshop drawing and vector art tools, the tools are nothing compared to what is available on Adobe Illustrator. With a vast array of templates that can help you get started and a number of different drawing tools, you can create your own unique graphics and artwork using Adobe Illustrator. You can create unique graphics with Photoshop, but you must start with a base image and your tools are limited in comparison to Adobe Illustrator. For the serious graphic designer, adobe illustrator is the best program to use. However, if your drawing needs are small, Photoshop will probably work just as well.

Photoshop tutorials do not extensively cover Photoshop drawing, and you’ll have to look for some Photoshop drawing specific tutorials to find truly useful information. Photoshop tips pages mention little regarding Photoshop drawing and vector art tools. However, to make your digital images look perfect Adobe Photoshop is the perfect tool for you. Once you learn how to use Photoshop to make your images perfect, you won’t be able to stop yourself from “fixing” every digital image that you use.

Adobe Illustrator is a different program. Where Photoshop helps you create a unique look using existing images, illustrator helps you create your own brand-new images. In graphic design, adobe Illustrator may be one of the best and easier tools you can use. The software is user friendly and tutorials to help you use illustrator better are all over the Internet. Whatever you need to learn about Adobe Illustrator, there’s a tutorial for that.

There’s no reason you cannot work with both adobe photoshop and adobe illustrator to create brand new images or polish existing ones. The two programs have some basic, shared components, so by mastering one you will already have a working knowledge of using the other. To make your images as stunning as possible or to create graphics that no one else has seen before, you can use both adobe photoshop and illustrator. There is no reason to pick between the two and use only one program if you have uses for both. Because the two programs and their uses are so different, it’s probably preferable to use both adobe programs for your digital photography and image creations.

In their own unique ways, adobe photoshop and adobe illustrator and great additions to your existing software. Each program has vast uses for the digital photographer and graphic designer, and you’ll find that both are equally useful when it comes to creating the best and most sophisticated images. Tutorials, photoshop tips, and adobe illustrator information that you’ll find online make using these programs quick and easy. The more you use these adobe programs, the more you’ll want to use them. Who knows what you’ll create next?

Using the Apply Image Command

2009-05-21T08:35:00.000-07:00

A considerable number of Photoshop users shy away from the Apply Image command because they fail to see its usage. It’s actually a very powerful command (Figure 6-12) for applying blends between two documents. You can use it to blend not only layers but also channels between the source document and the target document. Furthermore,you can apply the blending through a channel, selection,or mask; the channel can be a color channel or an alpha channel.

To use Apply Image,open the two documents that you want to blend. Make sure that they both have the same pixel dimensions (Image➜Image Size) and then take the following steps:

Select the document that you want as the target (the blending will be applied to this document).
Choose Image➜Apply Image.
In the Apply Image dialog box,select the source file from the Source pop-up menu.
Next,select a layer and channel from the Layer and Channel pop-ups.
In the Blending section, select a blend mode from the pop-up and specify an opacity level, or leave it at 100%.

At this stage, you can click OK and exit or continue if you want to apply the blend through a mask.

Check the Mask box.
Select the document that you want to use as the source for the mask from the Image pop-up.
Choose a layer as the source for the mask from the Layer pop-up,or leave it on Merged.
Choose a channel or alpha channel from the Channel pop-up, or leave it on Gray for default composite channel. If you selected an alpha channel, you can invert the mask by checking the Invert box. You are not restricted to inverting only the alpha channel; you can invert the single channels or the composite channels.
Click the OK button to apply the blend.

Note: If you’re using another image as the source, the pixel dimensions of thesource and the target images must match. If the color modes of the source and targetimages differ, you can blend single channels but not the composite channels. For example,if you like the detail on the black plate of a CMYK file, you can blend the Black channelfrom the CMYK (source) image into the composite of the RGB (target) image, or the Lchannel from a document in Lab mode.
