Adding photo collage image to slide show in photoshop elts 9

I created a photo collage page using photoshop elements 9 and saved it as a jpg file. It looked clear and sharp on screen. When creating slide show, I added this page but when I play the slide show full screen, the image for this page is blurer than normal. Other regular photos I added in the slide show are ok. Why does this happen and is there a way to overcome it?

Maybe it's me, but... scoobie... i don't think your reply has anything to do with her question lol. I believe she's saying she is having trouble figuring out how to do something, not that the program is crashing.
Anyway, I'm starting a similar slideshow project. I think it's easiest to simply edit the photos in iPhoto. Photoshop is on a different level from iPhoto and obviously has capabilities iPhoto lacks, but I think it should be fine for just editing digital photos.
One of the things you said was "how do you format... resolution"
I don't think iPhoto can change the resolution of a photo like photoshop can, but since you want to make the FINEST quality slide show I assume you'd want to scale the resolution up... and although photoshop can do that, I don't think you'll see a significant increase in quality. It won't look anything like if you had actually taken the photo at a higher resolution.
As far as importing pictures into iMovie goes, that should be pretty easy. If you click on the "media" button in iMovie, and then click on the "Photos" tab on the upper right of the window, it will display your iPhoto library the same way it would display it in iPhoto (organized by albums). You can then drag whatever photos you want to include to the "timeline" at the bottom of the screen.
I'm not sure what to tell you about pixel ratio and RGB vs. CMYK....
The last step, exporting to iDVD is just as simple as adding pictures... just click on the "Share" menu at the top of the screen and select "iDVD". What you do from there depends on what kind of final product you want... and I haven't actually used iDVD so I would just be guessing on that part lol.
Also, I suggest going here: http://www.apple.com/ilife/tutorials/imovie/index.html and looking at the tutorial. I viewed most of the movies there and they were helpful.

**Adding different text to each photo before making a slide show.

And the top of the day to you,
Is there a way to add different text to each photo before making a slide show? I know you can do this in PS4 but it is not very easy. Any ideas?
Al

Use the Caption metadata to add slide text then click the ABC icon in the slideshow module, followed by clicking the up/down icon, then choose Edit. Insert the Caption option from the IPTC Data box.

Photo Quality Difference - DVD Slide Show vs iMovie

I have seen a marked difference in quality of photos in iDVD slide shows vs photos I've incorporated in iMovie. The iMovie rendered photos are very high resolution and fill the screen, whereas photos rendered as a slide show in iDVD are of poor resolution and don't fill the screen.
Any thoughts?

All iDVD produced videos are 'Standard Definition' - that is 640 pixels wide and 480 pixels high (give or take). Therefore, all of your megapixels are being reduced to 0.3 megapixels on the screen. There is nothing you can do about this - SD video is this size. The only thing you can do is make sure the necessary 'downscaling' is done as well as possible. For my still picture presentations on DVD, I use a program called 'Photo to Movie' (LQ Graphics), along with iDVD. It seems to do a better job of the downscaling process, along with having some neat features not in iMovie. I have produced many 'slideshows' that are certainly not HD, but are pleasing to view on an HD TV (pillarboxed). Others use 'Fotomagico' for the same purpose, but I have no experience with that program. HTH.

When transfering a slide show from Photoshop Elements into Premier Elements some images rotate 90 degrees .

After assembling a slide show in Photoshop Elements and transfering it to Premier Elements some images are rotated 90 degrees and can not be corrected. I am using Windows 8.1.

How can I make a CD full of photos play as a slide show?

Hi all.
I hope I am posting in the right place.
On my XP machine I can insert a CD or DVD loaded with photos and without any convertions it loads and I can choose to view the photos as a slide show by clicking on an command in the left window "View as slide show".
Does the Mac OS X have a similar and simple way to view photos as an automated slide show?
If so, how would I go about working it?
Regards

My bad, I'm thinking of 10.4 Tiger, not 10.5 Leopard.
Try this instead:

Adding Music to slide show in Photoshop Elements 8

I am trying to add music to a slide show in Photoshop Elements 8. When I go to add the music I get the following message:
The selected file cannot be played because your system does not have the required compresser/decompresser (codec) installed.
I've tried downloading a copy of things from the internet and either they were the wrong things or I didn't know how to use them, so I uninstalled them.
Can someone point me in the right direction of what I need to download and what I do once I download the software?
Thanks so much!

I'm using MP3 and getting the same error. Yes, the file does play in Windows Media player and in iTunes. The song I'm trying to use was purchased from Amazon.
Any advice on how to add this would be appreciated.
Thanks!

How to create slide show in Photoshop CS5.

Hi,
Does anybody knows how to create a slide show in photoshop CS5 on windows computer?
Thanx

use Output Module in Bridge (CS4 and CS5 only) and you can very easily and quickly create a slideshow. Loads of options in a very easy to understand format and in an order.
Have fun!
IMO the Output Module in Bridge offers a limited number of options. If you can program some you have endless possibilities using Photoshop Scripting. I have an old 20th century programming background, don't have good understanding of object programming still I was able to hack one of Jeffrey Tranberry Photoshop scripts created for the Simpleviewer Web Gallery Flash Viewer. I Changed features and Added features and options I wanted for example Meta-data support for copyright notice, titles, description, Links, e-Mail to, EXIF etc. It was also easy to adapt this script to generate other Flash Web Galleries like WS-Slideshow.
Examples:
SimpleViewer: http://www.mouseprints.net/SVNewZealand/
Ws-Slideshow the way I generate these I hide the Ws-Slideshow menu bar you need to hover the mouse cursor over the bottom of the image window to be able to see and use it. This Ws-Slideshow gallery contains nine albums http://www.mouseprints.net/albums/

How do you create a 800 x 200 pixell slide show with Photoshop Elements 8?

I have a banner for a web page that measures 800 x 200 pixels. I would like to create a slide show in the whole volume but I have been unable to discover where to change the standard size of the slide show window to 800x200 in Elements 8. Can anyone help?
Al

Many thanks for your reply. I edited a series of photographs to 800x200 as
you described and then attempted to create a slideshow in Slideshow editor.
I get a good horizontal fit in the slide frame but there are black bars top
and bottom since the frame is more than 200 pix high. My question really is
how do I create a 800x200 slide frame that the edited photographs will fit.
Subject: How do you create a 800 x 200 pixell slide
show with Photoshop Elements 8?
In the slideshow editor interface click once on your image in the main
window - you will see a bounding box appear together with editing options.
Click on the More Editing button and when your image opens in full edit
select the crop tool.
Set width to 800 px and height to 200 px and resolution to 72
Drag out your crop rectangle and move your image to the position you want -
this avoids image distortion but you will sacrifice parts of the original to
create a banner.
Press Ctrl=S to save and check version set to save an edit without affecting
the original.
Press Ctrl+W to close and your cropped image should automatically pop up in
the slideshow editor.

Poor photo quality when importing slide show into Elements 10

Hello,
I'm using Elements and Photoshop Elements 10 on Vista.
What I'm trying to do is import a slide show I made in Photoshop in to a movie I'm making so that the slide show appears as a menu item and I don't have to include a separate disk for the pictures. I've sucessfully imported it, added the menu marker and the disc works, but the photo quality is really crappy. When I play the slide show on its own, the pictures are fine. What am I missing?
Thanks in advance!
Mary

Welcome to the forum.
They work on several levels:
A subscriber comes with a problem/question, and then, hopefully, someone will have an answer
A subscriber comes with a problem/question in mind, and then finds other threads, very similar, and hopefully gets the answer
A subscriber comes to read, to pick up ideas, etc.
In your case, it appears that # 2 worked, just as it should.
As for your question, PrE can produce SlideShows for display from DVD-Video, as good as it gets. Where commercial DVD-Videos enter a different realm, is with Video footage, with motion. There, Hollywood uses special Transcoding software, that allows for many, many more passes to identify the areas of motion, to Transcode at just the right Bit-Rate, for best results. PrE does that with but two passes, unlike the US $ 500,000 programs, staffed by highly-trained experts, who do nothing but Transcoding, all day long. PrE is limited in that respect, but with SlideShows, it will be able to apply the highest Bit-Rate (the DVD-specs. are strict here, so, though higher Bit-Rate = higher quality, DVD-Video can ONLY go so far.) Also, Hollywood uses DVD-9's (DL) so that more Duration can be authored to disc, at the highest-allowed Bit-Rate, for each segment of the Video. With a SlideShow, the Bit-Rate will be as high as the DVD-specs. allow, and per the Duration of the SlideShow vs the capacity of the disc.
Now, there are some other considerations, such as the limited Color Gamut (and Gamma) of DVD-Video vs display on a calibrated computer monitor, or a calibrated Broadcast monitor. One needs to study that limited and different Color Gamut, and perhaps adjust the colors first, in Photoshop. PrE is not designed for Broadcast output, so lacks many of the Tools, that PrPro has. Also, very few PrE users have a calibrated Broadcast monitor hooked up for Color Grading. Last, even if one has produced the ultimate output, with full understanding of the Color Gamut, and used a perfectly calibrated Broadcast monitor, there is no telling what the calibration of the client's monitor (computer, or TV) will be. What is perfect on a calibrated Broadcast monitor might look great on the client's setup, or perhaps not. A Broadcast Engineer can only adjust to standards, and hope for the best, when the disc hits the public. Same for Audio. Who knows what "Aunt Marge" has to play back the DVD-Video?
For ultimate results, I would create a Timeline with a few Still Images, but with each adjusted in slightly different ways in Photoshop. Add a Title, like a Lower-Third, with the Color and Gamma settings over each version, maybe 5 variations, that are slightly different. PS allows one to adjust Colors and Gamma in many ways, so explore. Then, author that Timeline to DVD-Video, using high-quality media, and test on their DVD player/TV setup. See which version looks best, and note the specifics from that Title. Use that to process the actual Still Images for the DVD SlideShow.
Also remember, if one has set things up ideally, they will have calibrated their system and Photoshop. As Photoshop is a Color Managed Workspace, things will be, as good as it gets. DVD-Video, and TV's are NOT Color Managed Workspaces, and most consumer TV's are out of general calibration, having just the generic setting from the factory. Nothing can be done about that.
As mentioned above, if the playback is for a computer (not a DVD player and TV), then better Color and Gamma might be achieved by doing an AV file, and then burning that to a DVD-Data disc, for delivery. However, one still has the variables of the client's computer, its monitor and even the software player used. All play a big role in how that AV file will play for them.
Good luck, and I wish there was an "iron-clad" answer, as to how to achieve the ultimate results, but there are so very many variables involved.

Images in slide show appear in low res

Why are images in the slideshow appearing in low resolution? Inside Muse I can click on an image in the lightbox section of the slide show and choose "Edit Original" which brings up the image in Photoshop. The image is 1097 x 1462 pixels. However, after publishing the site and navigating to the slide show, the image appears the right size on screen but looks very low resolution and is only 270 x 360 pixels when drag-copied to the desktop. I thought Muse was supposed to take care of all the resizing of images/assets as it published the site to the web (in my case, Business Catalyst). I tried doing a "Upload: All Files" when publishing, but no luck.

I guess, you have turned HiDPI output on. Just look here:
Photo aspect ratio incorrect when "placing" into Muse
And: If you place a picture in a 488 x 650 frame, and the picture is 1097 x 1462 pixels large, you force Muse to sample it down. If you place an image exactly with its size, Muse doesn’t touch it at all.

IDVD won't create thumbnail images in slide shows

In a slide show, the window that used to show the photos in a slide show no longer renders thumbnails in the list or grid views. The status at the top of the window just sits there and spins forever, with the text "Creating thumbnail images...." Anyone know of a workaround?

Neither of these "fixes" has changed anything. I also cleared my cache, ran a diagnostic check, and a virus/trojan scan! Either way, firefox 4 is just not working up to my needs! Should, or can I go back to 3.6?

Distorted images in slide show creation.

Hello,
I created a slide show using high res image files and adding music files.
I noticed that while viewing the show in full screen and even after outputing the sllide show to a cd, all the images are distorted.
Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong?
Thanks,
scephotog

It happened to me the same but after a while not using it, it disapeared. So I don't recommand this method but I noticed I had everything closed after that when I was creating slide show.

How do I create image pushing slide show in Flash?

Hi. I am wondering if anybody can tell me how to create a picture PUSH. I have three images that I wish to work with. By pushing I mean having an image come in from the left (or right) and place itself on top of the other (or pushing the other out of view). Like a slide show of three images scrolling along but one stops for a brief period before the other image comes into view.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!!

As Pat mentioned, this question might be best suited for the Flash Professional forum, I just happen to have the link handy
Thanks,
Chris

Missing images in slide shows?

does anyone know why some jpgs disappear after a few days in keynote files? I create slide shows and import images, save the files and everything seems fine. A few days later when I return to the document, some images are missing, with just a question mark and a gray rectangle remaining. Text below is still there. This can happen to four or five slides out of 30 in a document. It is very annoying and doesn't give me much confidence in the program.

I have been having this problem alot. I design slides on my laptop at home and transfer them via cd or jumpdrive to the computers on show site. More often than not, I spend the first day fixing many broken links to images and movies. Fortunately, I know this will happen so I bring all my assets with me. If I thought I could just bring the Keynote file (like I should be able to) I would be SOL. This especially scares me when I design the slides but someone else works with them on site. They probably won't know what to do when the assets go missing.
This last show, I also had a few corrrupt movies causing Keynote to crash. The original movies themselves are fine, it's whatever got saved to the archive. If I simply selected the thumbnail or master of the slide containing the movie in edit mode, Keynote would crash. I had to create a new Keynote file, copy into it all the good slides and redo the crashing ones. Very frustrating. Once I had all my Keynotes straightened out on the show computers, they ran fine.
Something just isn't very robust with the creation of the Keynote archives.
