Art value of photos using Photoshop filters like watercolor?

Published by nikimedia under Uncategorized

When selling photographs has anybody had luck when using Photoshop filters like watercolor, fresco, etc? I like the artistic value of some shots with the filters to make them not seem like photos. What are some opinions about trying to sell tweaked photos like that. Also, would this work if these were glicee prints on canvas?? Would they really look like paintings? My years of experience has always been w/ film. I’m behind the times w/ digital, but like the possibilities.. Please send any opinions about selling digital prints using different ‘artsy’ procedures.

What are some rules about changing photo size in photoshop (dealing with dpi) please read details?

Published by nikimedia under Uncategorized

I have an image that is 10 by 6.6 inches at 72 dpi (1016K). I change the canvas size to 4×6 and scale the image some (one of my methods of cropping. I then upload it to the website to order prints and it tells me it’s not high enough quality. However, if I upload the original, it can be printed at 4×6. When I scale it using the free transform tool, does it reduce the pixels? How can I crop it to 4×6 without messing up the quality? I don’t want to use the crop tool because I like to make the canvas size smaller then move the image around to find the best composition.

Why do photos get printed slightly bigger at photo printer than actual size in photoshop.?

Published by nikimedia under Uncategorized

Ok I do a lot of my own photography myself and this is really getting on my nerves. My wife had her passport photos taken and they totally suck (I mean I’m a semi-professional but these looked bad and we payed for them) so she begged me to take her photos myself. I was first rather afraid to do it for fear that I might not be able to fulfill all the guidelines, but I downloaded the guidelines and they’re pretty straight forward. So I sized the photos to be exactly 2×2 inches in photoshop so the measurements are correct and pasted 2 of them unto a 4×6 canvas in photoshop and did a test print on my laser printer and they came out exactly the right size. Then I went and printed them at one of those Kodak photoprinter things (just because it was too late to get them printed at the 1 hr service) and the photos are actually slightly larger (2 1/8 x 2 1/8) which brings the head and eye height measurements out of the correct limits. This sucks.

gallery wrap canvas printing photoshop tutorial?

Published by nikimedia under Uncategorized

I want to learn the steps to clone the edges of my photos(1-2 inches) and mirror them for the 4 sides of a print to be made on canvas. I’ve experimented with free transform, and marquee selections, but it seems a hit and miss. The goal is to have the image wrapped around the sides, but without losing the original perspective, just adding mirrored edges on the sides.

How to resize image to fit 4″x6″ photo printing in Adobe Photoshop?

Published by nikimedia under Uncategorized

I’m trying to print an image in Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended but it’s not printing correctly on the photo paper cards. I tried adjusting the canvas size but it didn’t help. When the image is printed most of the image isn’t even on the photo paper. I’m only getting a fraction of the picture on the photo. Any suggestions? Thanks

How to Soft Proof an Image Using Adobe Photoshop

Published by nikimedia under Uncategorized


This tutorial, written and narrated by Noelle Hines, is designed to give you a crash course in the process of soft proofing, but remember, soft proofing is done using computer monitor which has a much wider color gamut than do printers. Soft proofing can never guarantee your print will be exactly like the image your looking at on screen, but it can help you come as close to it as possible. For an in depth transcript of this tutorial, visit ezcanvas.com, and request one via our contact page.

How do I check the resolution of different photos on my canvas in Photoshop?

Published by nikimedia under Uncategorized

I have a bunch of photos, each in its own layer in my canvas. I need to make sure that each photo is 300 dpi for printing. Is there a way of checking the resolution of each individual photo without having to open the original image file?
