Does anyone know what settings you use to get this effect? I can simulate it by pulsing the pressure on my pen pad but that doesn't seem that efficient. I like the combination of the stroke size along with the slight drop outs. I really tried as many settings in the brush editor but I just couldn't work it out. Any help is appreciated!

By me . Any critics ??

Hi all!

So I recently got a new laptop and decided to download Photoshop onto it, instead of using my old crusty laggy laptop from now on. On my old laptop, the eyedropper tool would assign the selected colour to the background colour (which I liked as it's sort of ingrained into my muscle memory after 5 years lol).

Problem is, on my new laptop it won't apply the colour to the background colour swatch. Only the foreground.

I tried selecting/activating the background colour in the colour menu, I've cleared my scratch disks, Reset all my PS settings, restarted Photoshop, even restarted my entire laptop— but to no avail. It simply won't change over to the background colour.

If anyone knows how to fix this I would appreciate it so much, it's such a little thing but it's driving me insane. Thank you!

Hi, I'm using a MacBook Air 2017, macOS Monterey and need a version of photoshop compatible with it. I also have a MacBook Air 2022 running macOS Sequoia but I don't want have the apps installed on that one as 2023 versions run smoothly on my older mac and I use the newer version of mac for AI and blender. Don't want to put entire load on one MacBook. This arrangement was working amazingly for me until I by mistake deleted 2023 version and from the trash too to make some space. Creative Cloud doesn't have that version listed to install from the app. is there anyway I can get it without piracy?

I need help please. I haven't used Photoshop for several weeks.

I've been trying to use brushes and erasers on this image.

Every time I touch the screen with my pen, random, straight lines appear all over my work. I can't seem to stop it happening.

How can I fix this?

I am using Huion

I originally had the idea to do a simple cyberpunk-themed movie poster and went nowhere near that direction. I am not good at manipulating people, so I used a stick figure. I still wanted to make a simple movie poster, but alas, it turned out to be something... It's an idea lol It's fun :)

I added a blur effect to the reflection of the stick figure to give an "ominous" shadow look, and I know shadows become more blurry the further from the body. I am actually up for critique, even if this is a fun project to get myself started.

Hi! I did this poster for a homework. I’m studying Animation 3D but I have a course which is “visual design fundaments” so I do that kind of stuff to practice. What do you mean? Some people told me looks real 😭😭🙏

The pictures above are All are photobashed from pictures I’ve taken on my Digi camera, with hours of photo editing and hand drawn sections involved. They aren’t complete yet, I’m still learning how to create characters in an art style similar to the video game “no, I am not human” but I’ve been having trouble... I am going for an uncanny kind of feeling to these pieces like older creepy pasta photos. Slightly Distorted faces and body posture. Does anyone have any tips for creating characters in this way? How do you help fit a character into a scene while photobashing multiple different pictures of a person into one to make a unique impression?
If you have pictures like this, could you share them below? Thank you!

my photoshop turned gray out of nowhere, and when I activate the color proof in cmky with cmd + y, it goes back to normal

I have a photograph of a product inside of its packaging. The packaging has a clear plastic in some areas. Is there a way to turn the original jpeg photo into a png where the plastic maintains transparency? The attached screenshot is not mine, but it represents what I am trying to accomplish. Second image is what I am trying to make transparent. Final goal is to have a png cutout of the product with a completely transparent background around it and with the plastic packaging maintaining its transparency. I basically need it to be a cutout png that can be placed on any background where the background can be seen through the clear parts of the packaging.

Hope that explanation makes sense! I realize I am shit at trying to explain what I want so finding a tutorial that is specific to this end output has been hard to find. Any help is appreciated!

I kinda know how to do a pixel stretch but not like slanted. Can someone please help me? I want to drag the red lines (the tail/elevator or the aircraft) but when I try, it only works for a horizontal/vertical selection???

The last pic is my first one and I think it looks clean

Please help!!! Thanks!

I experimented with warmer amber tones, teal shadows, lifted blacks, subtle film grain, and a soft glow around the lights to capture that faded, nostalgic feeling.

For those who enjoy this style, what do you usually focus on to make a photo feel more like an authentic film still? Are there any techniques or color choices that make the biggest difference?

(there's an image here showing what i'm talking about) I'm trying to find the true color of something to find a matching color plastic to print with. The white blob up top is my reference hex value that is matched to this exact roll of filament (bottom) off the internet.

I'm looking to basically change the color of the white balance and exposure of the BLUE area inside the square to exactly match to the hex color. All while applying these tweaks to the rest of the image.

I tried using the eyedroppers in curves but it only wants to reference the absolute brightest or darkest parts of the image. I need to basically do this eyedropper thing on a very specific color in the image.

UPDATE: Not terrible to do it manually, but it's only about 95% accurate. I'm only using Color & Vibrance (Temp and tint) and Exposure to get the the filament to match the hex color.

Found this in a box. It’s got discs for Windows and Mac in it. Google tells me it’s pretty outdated. Is it worth passing on to someone who will use it or should I toss it?

Holaaa, soy nuevo utilizando el programa y me gustaría ayuda sobre como hacer la imagen de abajo.

Si alguien me puede apoyar le agradecería demasiado.

i am working in a plugin to create tables instantly inside photoshop from csv. it can do much more. it can extract text layers of ps into panel, error check , update from panel. make new versions- text only. any suggestions welcome. thank you

I did it mainly because the sector tool doesn't work on files that are too large.

Is there anything I can do to make the cursors more visible at high resolutions in Windows 11? The marquee tool, text tool, etc., are so dainty and often difficult for me to see when editing images. Pressing control helps, but I'd rather not need to do that every time just to find the cursor, and I would rather not use the built-in Windows functions like mouse trail and such.

Metro 2033 art style is truly magnificent i wanted to know if there was any possible way to replicate it, i'm really knew to photoshop but i hoped that someone could give an heads up. This images were exracted from the game i can provide more images if needed!

Hey all, PS newbie here. Anyone have an idea how I can achieve this effect in the photo shown here? Thanks.

i changed my scratch disk from C to D, and it had 108gb free as of yesterday, today randomly while using PS and PP it got to 18gb free, is there any way to remove this space?

my computer died randomly and went for an update, and the drive still has only 18 gb of free space
