I think then the problem lies in that the two plug-ins are not compatible with the upgrade. Did you add the newer version of PS or did you replace your older version with it? Check with the 3rd party companies and see if they have upgrades for the newer version of PS. If they don't yet, then you might have to go back to the previous version of PS that you were using. ...

Hi! Was there any distortion in your original photos? Because it looks more like the distortion came from the angle of your shots as the image was stitched together.

Hi! Can you explain your idea? Do you want to take your existing artwork and put it over someone's face? Have you tried using the blending modes to apply your art onto an image of a person? Put this layer on top of the layer with the photo and then apply the Screen blending mode to this layer. The black will disappear and only what is in the green will be left. If this doesn't help, then please explain in more detail what you want it to look like. Michelle ... View more

Hi! How have you programmed your buttons on your Wacom tablet and pen? Is it possible that one of the buttons on the tablet or the pen is programmed to switch colors? Or, are you possibly turning the pen upside down which would cause the eraser tool to be activated when the other end of the pen (other than the nib) is being used? What version of Photoshop and what version of Wacom are you working with? Michelle ... View more

I have a couple of thoughts-- In your version of PS Select and Mask, is there a little icon at the bottom left of the panel that looks like this: When you click on this little icon on the left, it should reset the workspace. If that doesn't work, one other thing you might consider is opening up your preferences on both machines and checking to see if all of the same preferences are checked. Let us know if that takes care of the issue? Michelle ... View more

Hi! I had an idea and wanted to send it to you--Here are a few examples of adding a black and white radial gradient as an Overlay layer to bring the focus to the bag and statue. I've included the layers panel in these screen captures so you can see where the gradient was drawn. This gives a little more dramatic lighting to the background and highlights the statue and bag. The gradient is a little different in all three--you can see the differences in the layers panel. Compare them side by side to your original image to see the changes. Let me know what you think?

Good morning! Thanks for the info! It looks like from other posts that this is probably an issue with the font and not necessarily with Photoshop. That's a good thing! There are a number of sites that you can get handwritten fonts. Along with the great suggestions noted above, there is a website called "Mighty Deals" -- Deals for Designers and Developers | MightyDeals.com  that has some good specials on fonts and has a number of script or hand written styles. A second option is myfonts.com -- https://www.myfonts.com/   which has always been a good place to find all different kinds of fonts. Pixel Surplus sends out an email every week with a link to get a free font that you can download--you can sign up for it on their website. Let us know if this fixes the problem! Michelle ...

Hi! Something that you need to remember is that there are 72 points to an inch. So if your resolution is 72 pixels per inch then it would be a 1 to 1 ratio. This would mean that 15 pixes = 15 points. I think Barbara's suggestion above is a good one. Try creating a document at a different resolution and you will see a difference in size and scale. Is your style guide for the web? Or is it for print? If it's for print then using a resolution of 300 should be used and you will see a dramatic difference between pixels and points. What kind of conversion table are you using and what are you using it for? Let us know how we can help you further, Michelle ... View more

Hi! Along with the great suggestions listed above, I think adding a little bit more dramatic lighting to the background of the image would make it pop. If you did a gradient of contrasting light in the background (dark grey/black around the edges and highlight behind the head then the image would have some extra dimension and take away some of the flatness of the image. Letting some of that highlight spill onto the bust to give it some separation from the bag would be good too. If you can't reshoot the bust with the bag to give it more perspective, then separate the bag onto it's own layer and use the perspective tool to bring more of a dimensionality to it. You can also shoot just the bag again and composite that into the current image. Right now, the bag is flat against the stature and they almost look like one piece except for the statue edges on the side of the bag. If you want the bag to stand out, then bring it forward in the image and make it contrast against the stature to give it more definition. I think the image itself is very compelling, but the background is so flat that it takes away from the statement you are trying to make. I hope the suggestions we've listed here are helpful!

Using Dave's suggestion of the Adobe Color CC option above is a great idea! But we also wanted to make sure that you know how to choose colors in Photoshop. In PS, you choose colors using the Color Picker--by clicking on either the Foreground Color or Background Color tool in the Tool bar -- see below. By clicking on the Top box, you will get the Foreground color option and can choose from any of the 16.7 million colors by moving the cursor to choose a Hue from the Color strip and a Lightness and Darkness value of that hue in the box on the left. When you click Ok, you can then fill a selection with that color. If you have any other questions, we're here to help! Michelle ... View more

First of all, you're not crazy! What you have is a feather on your selection. That's why it's fuzzy and why you have to hit the fill button several times. Make sure in your Options bar that Feather is set to 0. THEN make your selection. If you need to feather it, you can always do it from the Select Menu after the fact. Keeping Feather set to 0 in the Options bar ensures that you won't have this problem anymore. The other option, as mentioned above, works really well too. Use the Shift-Delete key combination to fill a selection with White or Black or any other color you choose. Let us know if that helps! Michelle ... View more

I am sorry to hear that! I know that this sounds simple--(but sometimes the simple things work!)--have you tried clicking on the lock icon and clicking off it again? If you've already poked everything, then I would suggest trying to reset your tool preferences Here is one way the staff recommended to do it: Please try to reset the preference of the tools in Photoshop. Right click on the tool at the top left Reset all tools Try resetting tool prefs and if that doesn't work, you can also try resetting the photoshop preferences. If you do reset your Photoshop Prefs, remember to restart Photoshop. Let us know how it works! Michelle ... View more

You can try looking through Adobe Stock, or some of the other stock libraries. But, I agree with Chuck -- it definitely is an illustration. If you find stock photos, you can use Photoshop's painting brushes to create a similar look and feel.
