I'm trying to apply a logo graphic to a photo?

I'm brand new to Adobe Photoshop Elements and also not very handy with computers.... I can't figure out how to add my logo to my photos, any help would be much appreciated?

Select the new layer with the logo (use Window> Layers if you don't see this). Click the Move tool and the logo will be selected. You can now move it by clicking in the centre and dragging it around, or resize it by clicking and dragging the anchor points. Hold down the Shift key while doing this to maintain the proportions.

  • Best Way To Cut Texture From Logo Graphic?

    Hello. Can someone please advise me on the best way to CUT a texture from a graphic AND still be able to use mutiple colors on the new graphic? To more specifically illustrate my question/problem, here are the steps I've taken:
    1) I created a map graphic as seen here:
    2) I was able to cutout a grid shape from the map graphic, using the pathfinder tools. As seen here:
    3) I then found a texture that I want cut out of graphic I just created. Since this is for a logo, I need the texture to actually be cutout of the shape, not just sitting above it as a white colored layer. As seen here, this is what the map graphic looks like with the texture layer over the top of it.
    4) The only way that I know of, to cookie cut the map graphic with the new texture is to hold the "alt/command key" while pressing the "minus front" option found in the pathfinder tools pallette. The only problem is that when I do this, a compound path is created, which converts the entire graphic to a single color as seen here:
    I need the graphic to be the original 4 colors. The odd thing is that I was able to cut the globe grid lines out of the map layers just fine (and still able to change colors), yet now I can't when I'm trying to cut the texture from the entire graphic.
    Summary: Can someone please tell me how to achieve the graphic below. I need the texture to be cutout of the graphic. The only way I can figure to cookie cutter the texture from the graphic is to create a compound path via the pathfinder tool. This leaves me with a proper cutout shape I'm looking for, but all in brown and with no ability to change the graphic back to the original 4 colors.

    Hello Jacob, Mike, and Erica,
    Thank you very much for your replies to my question. I really appreciate it. Mike, in regards to your suggestion about just changing the white layer's color as needed, that is an option, but really only suitable for web use. My concern would be if the logo were to ever be printed on non white colored paper. Trying to match the color of the texture layer to that of the paper color could prove to be quite a challenge without test prints. If the matching is not done correctly, the transparent effect would be lost. That is the main reason I need to cookie cut the texture from the logo graphic.
    In regards to the suggestion by all of you, I did try to use the transparency option, but the "make mask" button is grayed out and unclickable. The "clip" and "invert mask" options are also grayed out. I'm assuming it's because I am not grouping or merging my layers as needed. I've tried everything I can think of but no luck. Again, I need to maintain the 4 colors of the logo, so I can't use compound paths (which convert everything to a single color).
    Here are the steps I took to try to create a transparency mask:
    1) Selected my finalized world graphic.
    2) Selected my texture layer (on top of the world graphic).
    3) Opened up the transparency panel, in which it won't let me create the mask?
    4) I tried different variations of my layers (grouped, ungrouped, merged, united) but no luck.
    If I'm misunderstanding things, my apologies. I'm obviously doing something wrong. This is just not something I've dealt with much in Illustrator. I watched the video and see how she is able to use the transparency mask but for whatever reason I can't get it to function for my task?

  • Starting in June of this year I had been trying to apply my company's...

    Starting in June of this year I had been trying to apply my company's
    Verizon discount to my account. The first time I went in the tech said that
    in order to do that the account, which was in my wife's name, would need to
    be switched to mine. But after doing some checking he said that wasn't
    necessary and that they would send an email to my work email which would
    include a link. I was to click on the link and then follow the instructions
    and since this was being done from my work email the discount would be
    applied to my account. I did that and naturally the discount never appeared.
    I went to the store again 2 weeks later and attempted to do the same thing
    and was told the computers were down and they couldn't help me.
    I returned again the next day and the computers were still down. I went in
    again the next day and the computers were back up and a tech tried to
    change the account to my name so my company discount could be applied but
    was having trouble getting the name switched. He phoned someone at Verizon
    and worked with them for a while and eventually put me on the phone with
    them. I gave them my information and told them what I wanted to do and
    after some time with him he said that the discount had been applied. Again
    the discount never appeared.
    The end of August I went into the store with the intention of not only
    trying to get the discount but to upgrade 2 of the 3 phones on my account.
    We picked out the phones we wanted and discussed an upgrade to the account
    and got all of that settled. At that time I mentioned that I wanted to
    change the name on the account so I could get the discount and the tech
    mumbled something and then told me that he couldn't do that. We continued
    with the phone and plan upgrades and left the store. What I found out later
    and what the tech failed to tell me was that Verizon was offering 1 Gig of
    data per month for each upgrade, so I got 2 addition Gigs a month for free
    which did show on my account summary.
    The following week I again went into the store in an effort to get my
    company discount. I was told again that the account name would need to be
    changed to mine which I agreed to. After an hour and a half, 2 techs and 2
    calls to Verizon the name was switched and the discount applied, at least
    that was what I was told, I'll verify that when I receive my next bill. At
    that point I asked if the 2 free gigs were shared data and was then told
    that in order to change the name on the account the old account needed to
    be closed and new one opened with my name and because of that any
    promotions that were on the old account no longer applied. I was never told
    this at any time during the process and if I had known I might not have
    changed the name in order to keep the free data. This also wouldn't have
    been a problem if the account had been changed any one of the 5 times I
    tried to change it prior to it actually being changed. This whole ordeal is
    completely unacceptable and was incredibly frustrating.  I lost 2 gigs of
    data, which has disappeared from my account summary and which I still feel
    I'm entitled to, because of the incompetence of not only one Verizon tech
    but several of them.
    I am wondering if anyone at Verizon is interested in resolving this issue
    by giving me the 2 gigs of data that i deserve.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • Error trying to apply patch 11.1.1.5.3

    I am trying to apply IDM patch 11.1.1.5.3 to a fresh install of IDM. I have IDM running on an Oracle Linux 5 server along with Weblogic and SOA. The database is hosted on a second server. The base IDM install works fine.
    I am trying to patch to 11.1.1.5.3 and running in to an error saying...
    Patching component oracle.oim.server, 11.1.1.5.0...
    [ Error during Update inventory for apply Phase]. Detail: OPatch failed: ApplySession failed in system modification phase... 'ApplySession::apply failed: Current access level does not allow writing to the inventory'
    I am installing the patch with the same oracle user used to install the base product.
    Any ideas on what I need to do?
    Thanks.

    Nevermind. I downloaded the newest OPatch. I used the OPatch that was in the /Oracle_IDM1 directory and the patch succeeded.

  • I am trying to apply a lens filter in CS6 to a mp4 movie from the phantom 2 . I do the normal steps of lens filter and choose dji, phantom2 , and I click ok and the picture improves and there is less curve etc. What I don't know is why it seems to revert

    I am trying to apply a lens filter in CS6 to a mp4 movie from the phantom 2+. I do the normal steps of lens filter and choose dji, phantom2+, and I click ok and the picture improves and there is less curve etc. What I don't know is why it seems to revert back to the old movie when I come back later on. I know I saved it but I must be doing something wrong. Here are my steps:
    Open an Mp4 movie
    Choose filter, lens correction
    Choose dii
    choose Phantom FC200
    click ok and the image improves.
    I then save as a name.psd and close the file.
    I reopen the file and it looks good. When I play the movie it just jumps back to the old curved horizon.
    What am I doing wrong? If you can help me I would be very grateful.

  • System Preferences shuts down when trying to apply .CR2 image as background

    Hello-
    I have been trying to apply a photograph taken in RAW as a desktop background image. The file is .CR2 and when I click done to set it as the background, the background does not change and the notice comes up that System Preferences has unexpectedly shut down.
    Please help !
    Thanks

    As far as I know, the things you can do with a RAW file are pretty much limited to processing it with photo editing software. You could use iPhoto and save it as a jpg file.

  • Trying to extrude my logo in AE from a vector file made in AI but AE reads it as transparent.

    Cant figure out what I am doing wrong.  Trying to extrude my logo in AE from a vector outline in AI.  I watched tutorials on how to do both.  My logo imports fine into AE and then I right click on it and choose "create shapes from vector layer".  It then shows all the correct outlines forming my logo but all but a very few outlines are transparent therefore AE will only extrude the few that are filled in with a color.  I select the individual groups and it show that they are filled and are at 100% opacity but they are not.  There is nothing there to extrude.  I've tried changing options in AI and saving it different ways with no difference in the way AE reads it.  Is my LOGO just too complicated? 

    We can't know. We don't know what it looks like. From open paths to things like too many anchor points to unfavorable nesting of compound shapes there could be any number of reasons why it doesn't work. And you have not provided any system or version information to boot.

  • Tried to apply movers coupon towards Macbook Pro

    I have been a loyal customer of Best Buy, since I was a kid. So when the time came to purchase a new Macbook I went  to purchase it at Best Buy. During my checkout I had tried to apply the movers coupon, but the manger would not accept the coupon. I read online that it didnt apply for apple acessories, but can be applied on laptops.
    Thank you for taking time to read this.

    Hello shrav97-
    I’m sorry to hear about the issues that you’ve had trying to use this mover’s coupon on the purchase of a MacBook Pro.  It certainly sounds like it’s been frustrating.
    As avm5689 pointed out, if you did not go online to register your coupon, the store would not be able to apply it to your purchase.  Otherwise, the mover’s coupon should be good on any MacBook Pro.  One thing that it a bit confusing though is whether or not you have actually made the purchase already?  I was not able to locate any purchase information for you with the email address you registered on the forum.  Can you also confirm if you’ve registered the coupon code online to activate it?
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Sincerely,

  • Getting error whils trying to apply leave " hrtim00rec077 "

    Hi All,
    Getting error message no:hrtim00rec077 while trying to apply leave. There is no quota mapped to this absence type but getting the message "Absence quota 01 not found for grouping 1/41 on 20100401"
    Kindly let me know what might be the reason for this error.
    Regards,
    Srikanth

    Hello,
    Do you want quotas for this leave?
    First, check T554S if you have screen = 2001 and HR Deduction flag activated. This will enable the quota deduction.
    Then, you will have to configure T556A for the quotas
    Finally integrate all this with T556C - deduction rules and put more details on the selection rules on T559L.
    V_T554S_WEB just maps it to the frontend. I believe the big question here is if you have enabled the quotas and quota deduction for this absence type. That is why it's giving the issue.

    No problem.
    You will probably benefit from reading through the "Text" chapter of After Effects Help and the tutorials and such that it links to.
    If you need to start from the beginning and learn about the basics of After Effects, then I recommend working through the items under the "Getting started" heading on the After Effects Help and Support home page.
    Yes, these resources are largely about the new version of After Effects, but text animation hasn't changed a lot since version 6.5. (Some, but not fundamentally.)
