I wanted to create a Sea Monkey Family based on the old ads. Alas, Firefly was not keen on the old images as a reference. So I opted to just create them using a prompt. ... View more

I started out with a little alien creature in a jar. But then got bored. I started trying out various things... ideas... and styles. I opted to create a spirit of a female hacker whose spirit is trapped in a futurisitc city in a jar that is sitting on a desk. ... View more

It would be great if you could edit one element in a pattern and then it updates the pattern. ... View more

Can you edit the patterns? Some turn out great. But I would love to edit parts and have it update throughout the pattern. As that would make life easier. ... View more

Of course I had to do several iterations... The first ones are based on my current promo image and the second ones are based on me in a magical ball pit wearing an Adobe Hoodie! The idea was to create an futuristic style man.... very cyberpunk with a hint of anime. Used Friefly's structure feature. ... View more

My first question would be are you planning on doing it ethically? As of right now, I do not think that you can use Adobe Firefly designs commercially. And if you are adding AI-generated graphics into work... then you need to be transparent about it. And if you are using an AI-generated platform (such as Midjourney) that is not sampling ethically then you are part of the problem. If you are pulling text from ChatGPT then you need to make sure you are not plagiarizing work and verify the information.  As ChatGPT makes a lot of errors. So it really depends on what you are doing. I like AI... but I am also a fan of ethics when it comes to design, content and marketing. Paraphrasing Apple Co-founder Steve Wozniak (from BBC article)..... He thinks responsibility for anything generated by Artificial Intelligence and then posted to the public, should rest with those who publish it: "A human really has to take the responsibility for what is generated by AI." He wants regulation to hold to account the big tech firms which "feel they can kind of get away with anything" . But he sounded a note of skepticism that regulators would get it right: "I think the forces that drive for money usually win out, which is sort of sad." ... View more

I am actively following this topic. I teach marketing... and I just got it approved to build an Ethics module for the students. With AI now changing how things are done, it is very important on so many levels to get students to learn about ethics in marketing and mass communication. ... View more

Interesting... as much as I love Wacom. XP-Pen gave me the Artist 24 Pro. So it has been a while since I used a Wacom device... even though I am still friends with them.  Good to know that their drivers are acting a little wonky. ... View more

Oh you might need to flatten each layer down to the next one. Do that individually starting at the top. Also, you might need to add a plain/empty layer between some layers to flatten an effect. That could be the issue. Because if select to merge all layers depending on how you have things set up it could booger it up. ... View more

Flatten it. Then save as JPEG. And if you do not want to flatten it... then send it as a Photoshop Document. ... View more

I used it Sunday during my weekly stream on Behance for the Adobe Education Leaders program. I did not have any issues. The only thing that bugs me is how think that blue line is. Not sure if that can be adjusted or not.  Maybe I am too used to Illustrator in that regard.  I just do not need a bulky line. What computer are you using? Are you using a mouse or a graphics tablet? ... View more

This is why I do not use Apple products. No offense. But it seems there are more bugs there due to Apple's various updates. I use Rush on PC... and rarely ever run into a problem. But hey buying PC or Apple is basically a life choice. ... View more

If your computer is using any NVIDIA product... check the drivers and make sure they are up to date.  You have to go through the NVIDIA apps to do this. ... View more

Do you have any NVIDIA products in your computer. If so, try updating them drivers for them. I was running into the same issue with Photoshop 2022.  But this solved it. ... View more

How old is your laptop? You do realize that all software updates not just on computers but on cell phones. Eventually old devices no longer have an operating system that can handle the updates. So you can not blame Adobe entirely.  You can also blame Apple too.  If Apple no longer creates an operating system updates for your device that works with new software then that is a issue. Same thing with cell phones.  If your cell phone is old and there are no new updates for it.  Then any new versions of software will most likely not work. Also with tablets.  Try getting software to work on the original iPad or even Samsung Tab 2... guarantee nothing works on those devices. Sorry mate... I know you may dislike what I say. But every few years you have to buy a new computer. This is why I switched to PC and got a PC tower.  I can easily swap pieces out if need be.  With Mac, you are stuck in one spot you can not swap out components.  See, Apple wants you to buy new Macbooks every so often. ...

So my Photoshop 2022 was crashing like bonkers. I was told to update the NVIDIA driver... and it worked. Also no issues with 2023. Go to your NVIDIA tools and look to see if there is an update.  I would be surprised if there is not one. ... View more

On Photoshop... go to Windows. Then change your workspace.  My guess is that could be your issue.  You also go to Windows and open Layers there.... and then drag it over to the side of your screen and it will attach. ... View more
