My first Combine Photoshop, WARNING ALL WITH SLOW INTERNET!!

[CV-707]

Version No 1 has unfortunately been removed through a shameful mistake!

Hi there! This is my first effort to try and "combine" many images trying to make some of them transparent with Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0! Please give me feedback and tips! Oh, abd don't be too harsh on me since it's my first try!

[Marhkimov]

For the element of design, you should put less things in your picture. At the moment, it is a little "cluttered."

And it's optional, but a frame is always nice. It doesn't have to be fancy, even a simple one will do.

Overall, good job though! You'll get better with practice. :up:



PS - What kind of airplane is that? It looks very cool in that picture.

[CV-707]

Thanks! I'll make a new one with less things in it and a frame when I have time!

[kiwi_2005]

Yes way to cluttered. :yep:

Still some of the art ive seen around here would put the local artists in my town to shame :)

Your sig looks great :up:

[Dowly]

Vesikko, only bad thing I found on that image, is that "Freiwillig zur Kriegsmarine" poster. Lose that and it´ll be a lot clearer! :up:

[IRONxMortlock]

Agreed. It's the main thing that's cluttering it at the moment.

I'd also try it without the blue elipse in the top center.

Thanks! I tried to change it but I have a HUGE problem! It says that the layer is locked! So I can't do any changes! Does anybody know how to "unlock" the layer(s)?

:damn: :damn: :damn:

[CV-707]

PS - What kind of airplane is that? It looks very cool in that picture.

As I have a career of 4 years of flight and combat flightsimming I really should know, but personally I've never seen it before! Really sorry (and ashamed)!

Notice you saved it and tried to edit a jpeg.
.JPEG does not support layers, only PSD does. Whenever i edit, create something in Photoshop i save it in both formats.

[CV-707]

OH ****! So you mean that I have to do it all over again? NOOOOOO!!!

[CV-707]

But hey! It's a good training exercise!

LOL

[CV-707]

You know whats typical! I've already deleted all the parts of the image! My good luck :cry: :cry: :cry:

[Marhkimov]

Usually your first attempts at anything are not worth keeping. Your newer stuff will be ten times better anyways. ;)

[CV-707]

Thanks for all help! Here comes version No 2.

Be happy it's so small; original is 23.5mb!

[Marhkimov]

I was about to say... It don't get any bigger than that.....

Maybe you should resize it. I have DSL, so no prob, but I have a good feeling that 56k'ers are not going to visit this thread ever again...

[Spaxspore]

I have 5mbs cable so no prblem here

Looks great

[CV-707]

By the way, how do you change the name of a topic? I know it can be done, but I don't know how.

[Gizzmoe]

By the way, how do you change the name of a topic? I know it can be done, but I don't know how.

Edit your first post and changed the title.

Oh, and please don´t post ridiculously huge pictures, keep the width <1024 pixels.

[CV-707]

Better now Gizz?

[Gizzmoe]

Yes, thanks! :up:

[Marhkimov]

That PBM Mariner is the sexiest beast I've ever seen! :up:

[CV-707]

SEXY???

I think it is the worst looking airplane EVER!

[Marhkimov]

So why is it in your sig? :lol:

[CV-707]

Only painted pic of an aircraft blowing up a submarine I could find!

[Marhkimov]

I seem to have a taste for fat, slow, and lumbering airplanes...

B-17... really cool
B-29... super cool
B-36... twice as cool
Catalina... Oh so cool
Mariner... looks like a fat pug, but pugs are cool!


B-1... too sleek; ugly as hell... :lol:


I yearn for the days of fat behemoth airplanes.

I never thought laptops had what it takes to run this game, but you proved me wrong! I also am running on my old broken laptop not worth a **** until my own computer is back from repair. My old laptops hull integrity is 5%, it's screen is pitch black (I have a HUGE monitor instead) it's CD-ROM drive is broken just as it's keyboard and "cursor system". You can only hear from the left speaker and I've done system recovery sixteen times on it. I'm also running without a start menu!

[Gizzmoe]

I said "No huge pictures"!!!!! :hulk: I´ve edited your post, removed the image tags...

[CV-707]

Thanks! Friendly of you! I just thought to have it there until Spaxspore had downloaded it, and then resized it. Sorry, will try to get better. :up: :up: :up:

[benetofski]

Does anybody know how to "unlock" the layer(s)?


Your version is quite old - but there is a tutorial " Working with Layers" I believe it is called....

From what I remember - just click on the padlock icon to unlock - this might help:

Another suggestion, you could also try making the text "you dirty rotten bastards" overlay the pics and blue elipses in left and right mid-ground.

I found this one with a google search but it doesn't look that good.

If you have a swastika in a book or something and you can get the lighting right, you could try to take a photo of one?

Well, then resize it! Use a good resize algorithm like Lanczos.

[Marhkimov]

You could always draw it yourself.

[CV-707]

I know that this is a stupid question, but where can I find this Lanczos? I can't find it on google! :oops: :oops: :oops:

[CV-707]

I've tried drawing myself, and it looks more like an alien than a Swastika!

[CV-707]

Good lord Spaxspore! That was a fast shopping tour for you!!!

[Gizzmoe]

I know that this is a stupid question, but where can I find this Lanczos? I can't find it on google! :oops: :oops: :oops:

Try the resample/resize feature of Photoshop, it probably also has the Lanczos algorithm. If not use some other built-in algorithm, one that is good for enlarging images.

[CV-707]

Don't see me as a complete idiot; I'm just a noob when it comes to Photoshopping! I'm better off hunting convoys in the Atlantic! But I noticed that the picture quality crashes if I try and resize it. Any suggestions?

[Marhkimov]

It depends what you are making... If it's for a sig or something significantly small, then quality is of little consequence.

But if you want to make a desktop, you could try using the sharpen and blur tools to help you.

[CV-707]

Fine, I want to make it a large picture!
But what good is blur???

(I'm completely messed up :doh: :doh: :doh: :doh: :doh: :doh: )
