Adding Images to I Photo

I do not have a mouse. If I see a photo on a website and want to add it to I Photo, what is the procedure?

Move the cursor over it, press the Control key and the trackpad button, and choose to add it to the iPhoto library. This may not work in browsers other than Safari.

Adding images from kodak photo gallery to iPhoto

Does anyone have experience using "Add image to iPhoto library" from an online Kodak gallery? Most of my friends and family use the Kodak gallery to upload and share photo's, and i'm finding that iPhoto doesn't get along with it very well when i want to take their pictures and add to my library. while watching a slideshow, if you try to add the first image i'll never get the option to add to iPhoto library. the only option i will get when i "right click" is "copy". if i go to picture #2 and back to #1, i will get the option but it will just add the 2nd photo that i just came from. this is the nature of most of the problems... as i navigate through a slideshow, it often times will just add the last image i was on even if i have already added that to the library. I should also mention this does not seem to be specific to just iPhoto because the behavior is the same if i use "save as" and save to folder. i'm posting it here because my main goal is to add images to my iPhoto library from the kodak gallery. the problem does not occur if I add from my kodak gallery, as opposed to the slideshow, although when i do this the picture is saved much smaller and i don't know if there's a way to make this save at the same size as it would if it was added from the slideshow on the kodak gallery site.
Hopefully that's making sense to you... if not, please let me know and i'll try to elaborate. I appreciate any advice you can give me on getting photo's from a kodak gallery slideshow into my iPhoto library!
Thanks a lot
Dustin

I think the obvious thing is to accept that you can’t really add photos from a slideshow successfully. The reason is that the server is offering Pic X but your browser is not perfectly in sync with the Server, so it’s still on Pic A or Pic B, so when you say to the Server “Download This Pic”, it doesn’t know what pic you’re actually looking at. Nor, because of the time lag involved, issues like server and browser caching, are you ever likely to get them in sync.

How do you cut out the part of an image in a photo?

How do you cut out a part of an image on a photo that you have added to Pages. For example, if I have added a picture of a giraffe to Pages how would I cut out the giraffe from the image and get rid of the rest of the image

You can use the instant alpha tool to make the background transparent.
FYI: Pages is part of iWork, not iLife.

Adding Text to a photo...Need help

I'm new to Adobe Photoshop Elements 7. I'm following the instructions for adding text to a photo, but I can't see what I'm typing. I can see the cursur, but nothing else. I can see the text in the Layer, but not on the photo. Please help.

Check the font size in the options bar. If it's really small you won't see it.
Look in your layer's palette and insure your text is in a layer located above the photo in the stack.
You might also check your image's resolution in the Image Size dialog. I've seen a couple of posts where someone changes the resolution to 1 with resample turned off...then can't see the text because it's too small even when they have large numbers inserted in the font size box.

Need help editing scanned images of old photo album pages PSE 9

Before I begin this project, I thought I'd get some advice from someone who has undertaken a similar project. I have three photo albums from the 50's and 60's. The albums were made by my mother who mounted the photos (mostly black and white but some color photos) on construction paper (of various colors) using the corner holders or glue. She hand cut the construction paper so each page is not a perfect rectangle ( about 11" tall, 8.5" wide). The pages were punched and put into a three-ring binder.
She added text to the edge of the photo and/or to the construction paper. Each page contains one to 6 photos and text. Each album has about 120 pages. I want to keep the notes on the construction paper so I scanned each page into a TIF files, 400 dpi and stored the images in a separate folder for each volume.
I use (poorly) PSE 9. I see it has a auto straighten/crop feature that can be used one photo at a time. I tried the divide scanned images function and that did not fully separate all images on the page and also created an image for stray objects on the page such as an unused corner holder. (I know those things have a better name but it escapes me now.)
I plan to create photo books for my siblings. I am now thinking of cropping the image of each page (rather than each photo on the page) into a uniform size, adjusting levels, contrast and sharpness, saving this image to a JPEG file, and using these edited JPEG images to create the photo book. Since each page was hand-cut, there will areas of white where one page was torn or cut smaller than another page. Some pages will have blanks where old photos have been lost leaving behind only the corner things. It won't be perfect but it will be an image of the album as it exists today.
My questions are:
The pages are about 11 by 8.5. Does anyone know a photo service that prints photo albums in a portrait layout in this size? I have been unable to find one; it looks like most online photo books are wider rather than taller.
Let's assume I use a company such as Shutterfly that offers a 12x12 format. I assume it would be better to edit the images in PSE9 rather than any online software. What should I do to keep the proportions in the current images true but make the image fit a 12x12 page, for example?
IS there any other editing software anyone can recommend that will speed this up, hopefully a software that would take multiple photos at one time, auto-straighten and auto crop to a set size? And also auto contrast/level/sharp. If I could use such auto features on these images and then go back and adjust the photos that did not play well with the auto features, that would save me time.
I appreciate anyone's input. I dread doing this but we have one set of photos and 5 siblings so it has to be done. Thanks!

Hi,
Mentioning your issues one by one:
1) PSE does not have any portrait Photobook available, so your thought was the best way to get the work done is by choosing the 12x12 - shutterfly one.
2) PSe does a good job of editing the images. You can set your images of approx. 11x8 size to fit to the 12x12 page. Just choose a one photo page Layout for the page and then right click on the image to " Fit photo in the frame".
3) If more edits are required for the image, you can easily go to Advanced mode and edit your photos, layouts, move the frames, images or add effects to the images.
4) Photo book creation sure takes time. because, you want it to be the best. I am sure PSE would help you best here.
Go ahead and create you photobook. Inc ase you get stuck somewhere, you can always post here to get help!
Cheers,
Swarnima

Adjusting color in part of an image in a photo.

Hi, just bought Photoshop CC and am stuck. I just received a photo of my uncle that was taken through the glass of the frame it was in. The right side of his face is lighter than the rest of his face. How do I adjust this color? You can also see some lightening of the lower right portion of his hat. Other issues have been corrected. Portion of photo attached. Thanks.

Thank you so much. I will give it a shot. Your help is greatly appreciated. Will let you know how it works.

Adjusting color in part of an image in a photo.
created by musarticus in Photoshop for Beginners - View the full discussionTry this: 1) Duplicate your layer (Command/Control + J)2) Add a mask to the new duplicate layer3) Select the mask and either paint the left side black with your brush tool, or use the gradient tool for a black-to-white gradient4) Change the blend mode on the duplicate layer to "Multiply"5) If you want to go darker, duplicate the layer a second time and adjust the opacity as desired.6) In the image below I also masked out the background and added an orange photo filter to warm up the right side of the face. I cranked the filter to better see it, but you can reduce it to taste.7) There are other things you could try like painting with your brush in "Color" mode to fine-tune skin tones, or use the dodge and burn tools, etc. https://forums.adobe.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-7149917-723260/Multiply.png If the reply above answers your question, please take a moment to mark this answer as correct by visiting: https://forums.adobe.com/message/7149917#7149917 and clicking ‘Correct’ below the answer Replies to this message go to everyone subscribed to this thread, not directly to the person who posted the message.

Adding images and buttons without a frame appearing

I would like to add images to some of my pages without having them appear in a frame. I would like to place some transparent gifs on the page to use as buttons for hyperlinks. I would also like to have some photos (with transparent backgrounds that appear on the page and are not surrounded by a picture frame. Any Suggestions

iWeb seems to default to stroking newly-added images and shapes. Pages (iWeb's close relation) includes a way to change the default appearance, but I can't find anything similar in iWeb. You can, of course, remove the stroke using the Graphic Inspector (just set Stroke to None). Transparency in gifs and photo images is supported. Just drag into iWeb or use Insert > Choose... Again, remove the stroke if this appears.

Background layer seizes added images.

I am trying to create a photo collage by scratch (not using "Collage"). First I create a new blank page for the background and save it. It is shown as "locked" with a padlock. Then I open an image file (.jpg) to add to the background layer, and I get a message that I need to unlock the background layer so I click to unlock it. However the added image locks onto the background layer and doesn't make a new layer. If I open another image file it locks on top of the others.

The Layers panel only shows the layer(s) belonging to the currently active file. You need to arrange your image windows so that you can see your composite image as well as the source. With the source image active the Layers panel will show the source - click and drag that layer to the composite.
So in the following, the violet image is the active image and I drag its layer to the white image I've created for my collage. In the composite image with the new layer selected I can position it where I want. Select each of the other images in turn and do the same. Refer to my previous note, you can also do this with Copy & Paste.
When finished, your composite image and its Layers panel will look like this:

I'm adding text to a photo.. Trying to get an S to lay down

I'm adding text to a photo and can't get an S to lay down?

I'm guessing on what you are trying to do, to some extent, but see if this helps. Your photograph will have a horizon, and perspective. For instance, if there are any buildings in the image, lines drawn through the top and bottom edges of the building, and extended to the horizon, will always intersect at the same point. If you lay down some guides as shown in this illustration, and overlay some perspective lines with a 1 pixel line, then use the resulting box to Free transform the letter S to.
It is _much_ easier if you Rasterize the text layer, because that will cause the Free Transform bounding box and handles, to fit tightly around the text. Otherwise the bounding box will be larger than the text to include descenders and risers for the font used.
So with guides and guide lines in place, and the text rasterized, use Free Transform, and hold down the Ctrl (Cmd) key will dragging the corner handles to the intersect points.
In the illustration I have made a nice simple concentric perspective, but that probably won't be the case in your image. But if you use clues from the image, you will be able to work out its true perspective. In fact I rarely resort to using guides, and just do it by eye.
A little tip when doing this is to make the object a Smart Object before using Free Transform. The reason is if you decide to tweak the perspective and use FT a second time, with an SO layer the handles will still be in the corners. A normal layer will now have the FT handles square to the document edges, which makes it much more difficult to refine the shape.
BTW Thanks for asking a proper, interesting, question about using Photoshop, as opposed to the usual 'My dog has eaten my serial number' posts.

Adding images files to DVD-ROM

By adding image files to the dvd-rom when burning my slideshow and movie. Can the photos be put on a desktop for printing after burn is done?

There's a nice option to add whatever files you choose to the DVD-ROM area using the command to Edit DVD-ROM. Here are instructions:

Just added a number of photos from my phone. It worked fine and I printed other photos but shut it down and Now it wont relaunch!! help.

I need a special tool just to access my own photos?
I suggested "Find any File" because it is easier to use than the Finder's search - the results there will depend, on what you have included in your Spotlight index.
To search using the Finder, open a Finder window; press the key combination ⌘F, and then set the search window to search "This Mac" and "Kind is 'Photo Library'"
Only, if the library should have become corrupted, this may not work. And the search will not look inside the packages.
The whole iPhoto library directory is only 556 MB so I guess the videos are lost for good.
How is the "Importing > Copy items to the iPhoto Library" flag set? See my last post.
If you imported with "store files" in there original location, the photos and videos will have remained on the card, until the crad has been erased.
Is there a way to start iPhoto from scratch so at least I can start over and have it not destory all my data next time?
You can create a new iphoto library, by using the command "File > Switch to Library > Create New".
Is there way to import my photos and videos without using iPhoto?
You can use the utility "Image Capture", that comes with every Mac to import your photos to folders on your Mac.
This program is horrendous!
I never had problems with it and like it, but I understand ....

Hi Ritam,
For such issues, can you please create a new thread or directly email the author rather than dragging back up a very old thread, it is unlikely that the resolution would be the same as the database/application/etc releases would most probably be very different.
For now I will close this thread as unanswered.

How to copy an image from a photo onto another photo

Im trying to figure out how to cut and paste an image from one photo onto another. I tried exporting the main photo to a pages document and then inserting the other image, but cant seem to get it to work. Is there an easy way to do this?

You'll need an image editor for the job:
In order of price here are some suggestions:
Seashore (free)
_[The Gimp|http://www.gimp.org/macintosh>_ also free
Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
Acorn ($50 approx)
[Pixelmator|http://www.pixelmator.com> ($60 approx.)
Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
