Hi,We had some great entries to our last, 'Cutting Edge' challenge. Thanks to all who took the time to create those images.   This week we are off to the River Wear at Durham, where we find this old fulling mill. Fulling is a step in the process of making woollen cloth. The building dates back to the 17th century although there are records of a watermill at the location even before that. In 1833 it became a museum and part of the university of Durham. It is a timeless and tranquil scene. What can you do to liven it up?   The “rules”: Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry. Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc. Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”. There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humor and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go! The starte

Dear Support Team,I am writing to report a recurring issue with the Luminar Neo plugin in Adobe Photoshop. Whenever I complete edits in Luminar Neo and attempt to return to Photoshop, the application crashes. This problem has been occurring intermittently for a considerable amount of time, despite multiple reports and attempts to resolve it.I have ensured that both Luminar Neo and Photoshop are updated to their latest versions. However, the issue persists, significantly disrupting my workflow. I would greatly appreciate any assistance or solutions you can provide to address this problem.Thank you for your attention to this matter.

coulda sworn I've done this in the past with success but now I'm having trouble: I'm working 4K DPX in Photoshop, which insists on saving the modified frames as Cineon. When I try to put the .cin frames back into the image sequence for Resolve or Premiere, it leaves them offilne, no longer recognizes just those frames. The modified frames have the exact names as the source DPX, except with the .con suffix. If I change .cin to .dpx it doesn't help. MacOS 10.12 - Photoshop 2022 - Resolve17 - Premiere 2025 Anybody know what I'm doing wrong or have a suggestion?TIA,-gax

Hi, I wanted to create a Realistic Photocopy Effect in Photoshop by using a Stamp and grain filter. I followed a YouTube tutorial but my stamp effect is looking so weird on every image.So just for testing, I copied the image that was used in the tutorial and applied the same settings in grain and stamp filter in my Photoshop but with the same image and same settings still, my final effect did not look normal.  Can anybody let me know, what the issue is and how to fix that? I have attached the screenshots please have a look. I also mentioned the settings that are used in the tutorial. Thank you.Settings in TutorialGrain: Intensity 33, Contrast 47, Grain Type RegularStamp: Balance 13, Smoothness 4

Currently running Photoshop 26.2.0 on Win11.Several years ago I created an Action to modify a dng file & then save it as a jpg in another folder. I recently upgraded my computer & the folder structure has been changed, so the Save command in the Action needs to be modified. Unfortunately, I can no longer recall how to recreate the Save command in the Action. The attachment contains the Save command (outlined in red) that I wish to replicate so that I can revise the path to the desired folder. Note that the path does not include any filename because the intent is to retain the name of the source dng file when saving it as a jpg.I tried the "Record Again…" & "Insert Menu Item…" options in the Actions menu. These were not successful because they required that a specific filename be inserted before proceeding to record the Save step.Any guidance would be gratefully appreciated.

For example:I have two groups, Group A (contains layers A1 A2 A3),Group B (contains layers B1 B2 B3)Now I have grouped group A and group B into group C again.I want A1 A2 A3 to be linked relationships, unless manually, they are always locked in group A.Also, B1 B2 B3 as well.Also A ,B are always locked in C.Now this is not possible, you may not upset the linking relationships during frequent manipulation, but the containment relationships are quickly misplaced.I would hope that, unless you artificially unlock it, the containment relationships, up and down, of groups or layers within a cluster are unchanged. Thank you.dub.

In the past, if I had a power failure while editing, when I reopened PS the image/s I was working on would come back up as a recovered file. Several times lately this has happened and when I reopen PS the image edit is just gone. Did Adobe remove this feature, has it been moved and renamed? What's going on with this?

Every time I update Photoshop it refuses to open. And everytime I try a lot of things, and finally - ofte after 2-3 hours - I manage to get it working again. I use a little special setup, wich might be the issue. I am on a fast new ASUS i7 Laptop, with a RTX4050 Nvidia GPU with 32 GB RAM, SSD HDD, latest drivers and Windows 11 etc. All Adobe software runs smoothly on this machine - exceot Photoshop will not start at all. It just thinmks a little for 2-4 secs and stops. In jobmanager it shows that Photoshop is loaded, but also a Adobe Crash Processor. If I try start Photoshop fx 3 times after each other all three shows up in jobmanager. Its just hanging/crashing and nothing happens. At all!I use two external monitors - besides the laptops own - so 3 monitors in all. I first managed to solve the issue by forcing Photoshop to use the Nvidia GPU. I have also solved it sometimes by run as Administrator or making it start in compatible mode etc. I havew tried disconmnecting ex

Hi,I am in a process of making product images for a client with rulers to provide scale, a bit like this (not my image, but similar use case)All the images are same size and they consist two layers: top layer with a photo of the product (trimmed and w/ transparency) and a background layer with the rulers. However, now the client wants me to make all the products same size, meaning that the image size would vary. I don´t quite understand why they would want that, but whatever.The problem is that I already have >1000 images so I would really like to automate this process. Is there a way how I could resize the top layer to specific pixel size and have background layer automatically resized relative to the top. Or in other words, resize the image to a size where the top layer would be X pixels wide.

@sttk3 @Stephen I created a button in the uxp panel that needs to open files from a folder,to my surprise I am having a problem open file in photoshop mac does not work.this is what came out of the action, copy javascript. async function OpenFile() { let result; let psAction = require("photoshop").action; let command = [ // Apri {"descriptor": {"_obj":"open"}, "options": {"dialogOptions": "display"}} ]; result = await psAction.batchPlay(command, {}); } async function open_file() { await require("photoshop").core.executeAsModal(OpenFile, {"commandName": "Action Commands"}); } await open_file(); 

Documentaion is minimal at best , but... Why is there no document.activeLayer property in .PSJS?  Is it because there can be more than one selected active layer? In which case which one is zero indexed? Or have the Adobe developers just decided to make everything even more difficult?   

Hello, you can drag or place vertical and horizontal guides on your canvas via new guide > guides, is it also possible to place guides on your canvas at a certain angle that you determine yourself?

Could you please advise what is wrong in my attempt to select part of image split by the edge in Select and Mask tool?I'm really marking time because every action doesn't make an edge perfect.  It's just an edge between hand and background.

Photoshop Version: CC 2018 19.1.5 ReleaseOS: Windows 10 22H2 19045.5487 Hi! When I use the Rotation Tool, the brush stroke becomes discontinuous. The effect is most pronounced when rotated 45 degrees. (Clearly in the video) This doesn't happen in other graphics editors, so it's not a problem with the Wacom Intuos tablet I'm drawing on.

Can't undo with Shift + CTRL + Z.  Also, the remove tool randomly stops working and I have to reload Photoshop to fix it. Finally, Remove Background AI tool gives you the orange Community Guidelines message on effing anything. 

I have the most recent PS 2025 edition and ACR edition. I have just come across a problem when I use the adaptive B&W profile or the Monochrome profile in ACR before I move my photo to PS.  I have found that once I move my photo into PS, my Nik Collection is grayed out as well as my Topaz Studio 2 and can no longer be used; however, if I use the Adaptive Color or any of the other profiles in ACR before moving my photos to PS, Nik Collection and Topaz Studio 2 work just fine.  For any Nik plug-in that I try and open I get a message that the command is not available.  (See 2nd photo).  My work around is just not to use the adaptive B&W or the monochrome profiles in ACR, but just use Nik Silver EFEX, but wondered what I could do if I want to use the adaptive B&W.  

Why is the white not going away?(see video)
