Personally, I started off by using Photoshop, literally anything I wanted to create I’d do it in Photoshop – Magazine? Photoshop. Logo? Photoshop. Then many years ago (Before I was a professional) I decided enough was enough, if I wanted to take this work seriously I need to learn how to use indesign and Illustrator. Lucky for me the layout is very familiar, and I quickly learnt why there are 3 separate programs - though I never actually took a class I learnt by trial, error and youtube – when using InDesign this forum is a godsend, you should always ask yourself “Is there an easier way of doing this?” because there probably is! I would say it’s easy to learn hard to master if you’ve got some experience with Adobe software you’ll feel somewhat at home and having an understanding of graphic design will help 10x. But, that’s what the forum is for – to support and help you. Use and abuse us, you’ll always learn something. ... View more

I wouldn’t worry too much about the file size when converting from .dng to Jpeg, as you’re probably already aware, jpeg’s use an algorithm and compresses the image - this happens every time you save a jpeg, so if you save a jpeg, then save that jpeg again it will compress it even more but a file size doesn’t mean the image quality is any less, it’s just the algorithm doing what it thinks is best. At any rate, if it’s for website viewing you tend to want the file size to be as low as possible for faster loading times. Take a look at Amazons home page, the images look high quality but are usually between 30kb-100kb To answer your question though, I must be honest I don’t know why it’s spitting out two different sizes unless you’re saving the jpeg, then re-saving the jpeg. ...

I believe the collage feature on PS express is limited to a maximum of 9 images, meaning you won’t be able to 3 additional images to it (unfortunately) If you could use the PC version, follow both BarbBinder and JJMack comments which will both work for you, the easiest being BarbBinder​ It’s really as simple as setting your page size, drag and dropping the images into it and resizing the images to fit (Free Transform) Feel free to post back should you have any questions ...

If BarbBinder comment wasn't the solution, would you mind posting a little information - If English isn't your native language feel free to write your post in your local language and Adobe forums have a neat function to translate it.

Just some advice as my Girlfriend is a tattooist and swears by using an Ipad Pro with Apple pen, she uses an app called ProCreate and having spoken to her about this post, if you can financially afford one it's a great investment that you will never look back on. Where she used to spend an hour or two on a customers design, she now spends 20 minutes and gets a much better end result, she even edits it onto the skin so they can see the scale and how it'll look afterwards. She even attached her disposable grip to the pen so it feels a little more like her machine, I'd be happy to give you her Instagram should you have any questions  ... View more

You can pretty much do anything in Photoshop – However, using the right tool for the right job will save you time and better end results. Sure you can make a catalogue in Photoshop, but InDesign will give you the best result, you can make animations in Photoshop but After Effect will work much better. You could make this logo in Photoshop, but Illustrator will give you a much better end result. Having your logo ready as a vector based graphic will help you and anyone else involved massively when it comes to printing or producing different sized images etc. That being said, the best designers use a mixture of different applications to get the best end results, for example, I like drawing rough sketches in Photoshop then importing that into illustrator to create my vector lines, add my flat colour then import back into PS to add the final highlights and shadows. ...

You can also copy/cut your image, use the Elliptical Marquee Tool, make your shape (hold shift to keep it a perfect circle), then Edit > Paste into Then your image will paste directly into the circle and you can move/transform/edit the image and it will still remain in the circle. Much easier than the tutorial you're using ... View more

Shouldn't be any reason for Anti-aliasing to effect its ability to remove the inverse... I had to double check, so recreated and with it turned on, i can still remove my selection. Has your suggestion fixed the problem? If not could you send a screenshot of your entire photoshop window, making sure the layers are visible Thanks ... View more

This probably has something to do with which layer you’re trying to remove the background from, you must have the layer selected which you’d like to make the edit on (In this case the edit is deleting) Another way is to just press Delete on your keyboard J ... View more

That's assuming your logo is a vector, you can learn more about vectors here: https://image420.com/what-is-vector-art/ ... View more

Assuming as you’d mentioned ‘New to Photoshop & Illustrator’ that you had created this in Illustrator? If so that means (Usually) the logo is a Vector, which is great news! What you need to do is scale that .ai file to the correct measurements you want it to display at, so for example let’s say you have an average photo size of 1920 x 1080 px and you want that logo to fit nicely into the bottom right corner, big enough to be visible but not too big it takes away from the image. I’d say a good size for that would be somewhere around 400x150 but it all depends on the logo so you’ll have to play around to match, save it at the desired measurements as png and place on top of the image. Another thing you can do is put the image into illustrator then open your logo and drop it onto the image whilst in illustrator, then you can scale as per above to get it spot on! it’ll help you balance that logo onto the image. Hope that helps! ... View more

Would you please send me it back? only as the pasteboard script that was linked didn't fix the issue for me. appreciate the effort in helping! EDIT: I've actually Copy and pasted it between documents and seems to have sorted it so no need to resend! Strangely when I'd paste it back all the missing text (From my other thread) returned!! Weird file, If it's okay with you guys I'm going to go through and sort this .eps problem then re-upload the file - If you guys wouldn't mind assessing again and giving me some more pointers? Thanks EDIT EDIT: Would it not work just as well if I just converted the text the .eps into 'Outline'? that way it's no longer text but a vector. Let me know the best course of action, please ...

Thank you all for your comments, I will convert all of those EPS to a flat image, I just assumed since Indesign could handle the import it wouldn't be a problem but upon reflection and your comments its probably a recipe for disaster. Probably doesn't help the file size either. I'm on windows, and having used the script provided for removing pasteboard item it hasn't resolved it unfortunately, Going to take Bobs advice and move the pages back and forth...
