Adobe TV Tutorial: Ok to steal images?

http://tv.adobe.com/watch/adobe-and-your-voice/creating-your-personal-brand-episode-creati ng-a-tshirt-design/community/
I saw this posted on Facebook and left a comment on the Facebook page - and I also commented on the video itself, but the comment has been removed.
I'd like to point out that this video is condoning the use of images from a google search and free vector packs.
For commercial work you may not have the appropriate license to use images from a google search or even from free vector packs.
I think this video is really bad form to be posted on Adobe TV. The tutorial doesn't really show you how to do anything, except use a t-shirt template file that is completely useless.
There are no illustrator techniques being taught in this video. And it is over-emphasing the use of google searches and pulling images from the internet to use in work.
Plus the advice at the end of the video to save a "press quality" pdf is really bad advice. There are tonnes of ways a t-shirt can be printed - and a press quality generic pdf is not the best advice.
There are no techniques in this video to show a person how to prepare artwork for t-shirt printing, in fact on the Facebook comments to do with this video a t-shirt printer also posted on the video saying that they were not happy with the advice being given in the video (which is next to none).
I don't usually post in the Illustrator forums, I use InDesign and post over there. I'm just not happy with this video tutorial, I think it's really bad form.

I did not watch the video but if the video suggests that a user can downlaod and use any image they find on the web, regardless of how they cme about it, without permission of the copyright holder then it shoulc be removed, promoting unauthorized use of copyright materil is simply not professional.
I know from experience it is a problem and many users who do this and think they are not doing any harm or anything illegal are quite wrong, people use my images often on the web without asking me for permission.
One guy had the nerve to ask me if I knew he copyright laws after using my images without my consent. I am not sure people like this see issue correctly, the person who posted that video may actually understand the copyright law backwards so to speak. They think they can use what they find and if you tell thenm they can't they think you are actually infringing on their copyright because they found and used the image(s).
No kidding. The person who posted that video might actually think you are at fault even though they might be behaving like…well a spoiled brat.

    i am on windows 8 platform, i used adobe elements to work on my image - the output is in dng format, how do i convert this to jpg format?

    When you make a DNG that's like making another raw file, so you will need to convert the DNG file just like your original raw. Don't use the Save button in the raw converter. That's just a link to the DNG converter. Normally you would click Open instead and then save in the editor as a jpg or other image format of your choice.

  • How do I use Adobe Edge to get faded header images on my website?

    Trying to use Adobe Edge to get faded header images on my website. Was referred to Adobe Edge because it is supposed to be easy for beginners. I was able to upload my images, but then there was no instruction/direction on what to do next. Everything I clicked just brought me somewhere else. I'm a novice who needs help with coding, as everytime I tried adding coding to my page, it messed it up. I would appreciate if someone can tell me what to do after I upload the images.

    Yes, Animate. Again, I uploaded the images, but then, I didn't see any directions on what to do next, as I would like fading header images for my website. I understand that it is supposed to generate the code for my website, which is where I need the most help.

    Bought the adobe product to convert a pdf image to an RTF file but cannot figure out how to get it to work

    HI wjleshe,
    I've checked your account using the email address that you use here in the forums, but I don't see any order history. Did you perhaps sign up with a different email address? Or did you sign up via the Reader mobile app for iOS or Android? If you got your subscription via an in-app purchase, Adobe wouldn't have record of your order. And, you would need to contact the app store if there is a problem with your subscription.
    Best,

  • Adobe Air Initiates the wrong launch Image on iPhone 6 - Possible App Rejection by Apple Review Team for all developers

    I've opened a bug for this issue as well. I want to ask if anyone experiencing the same issue and has found a workaround.  Basically Air Runtime is picking up the wrong launch image when launching on iPhone 6. It defaults to [email protected] instead of the [email protected] iOS 8 picks the correct image but Air Runtime does not. Here is the link for the bug. If this is confirmed, this could result in rejection for all the app developers who optimized their apps for iPhone 6 . It is hard to catch this bug in release mode since the Air Runtime loads pretty fast and it occurs when you device is slow or doing something in the background. You can see it easily on iOS simulator or debug mode. We tried everything for a workaround but we failed.
    Bug#3831747 - Adobe Air Initiates the wrong launch Image on iPhone 6 - Possible App Rejection by Apple Review Team for a…

    Apple recommends the storyboard/xib option but you can still use launch images as assets in your root. When you open a new project in xcode you can look at Contents.json and see the naming conventions they use for iOS8. We grabbed the new naming convention from here. Also setting up in the application xml the UILaunchImages key works too. Please see the below example. It would be a better solution if Adobe Air refers to xml/info.plist values that the developer sets instead of hard-coded naming conventions.
    <key>UILaunchImages</key>
      <array>
          <dict>
              <key>UILaunchImageMinimumOSVersion</key>

  • Adobe Bridge CS3 not opening Photoshop Image Processor

    I selected one, four, and multiple pictures in Bridge to reduce the file size of jpgs. I went to Tools > Photoshop > Image Processor. Nothing happened. Photoshop did not open. That got me to thinking that sometimes while I am in Photoshop Bridge won't open either. Any ideas on resolving issue of "Bridge not opening Photoshop Image Processor" would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello Curt Y, Everything is checked in the "Startup Scripts," including Bridge (twice) and Photoshop (twice). Not sure why duplicate entries but there are.
    If you mean that you have two of the same versions (both CS3) in there that indicates there is something wrong with your install
    If you have any suggestions regarding being able to access the Image Processor to resize pictures and such without first opening Photoshop, I'd greatly appreciate it. If not, the work around will have to suffice.
    My first goal would be to reset the preferences for both PS and Bridge and then try again
    see also this KB document, section preferences reset:

    And inhere also info on how to retrieve your path for cache to manual delete it.

  • Adobe Reader 9 Mac - cannot copy images

    I upgraded to Reader 9, and another person in our office is using 8 with the same problem. We can no longer copy images out of a PDF - when we try to paste an image that appeared to be copied we only get a gray box. We've tried many ways including pasting directly into Word or Excel, choosing 'New from Clipboard' in Photoshop Elements, creating a blank Photoshop file and pasting, etc. This has works perfectly in Acrobat 5.0 and in Reader 7.0.5 (which I have gone back to using - I'm sure glad I waited before removing it from my system!).
    Any thoughts?

     I was wrong on both counts. With the help of the local Apple store, I found a solution. First, I Moved to Trash all adobe related files/folders from /Users/*myaccount*/Library/Cache and /Users/*myaccount*/Library/Preferences. When I started "Adobe Reader 9", I at least got the license agreement but again it failed with an "internal error". I then moved the /Users/*myaccount*/Library/Application Support/Adobe folder to my desktop. I was then able to start "Adobe Reader 9" successfully.
    I was having the "Internal Error" message on all my repeated installs of Reader in Mac OS 10.6 ("Snow Leopard") and this fixed it for me. The only thing I did different, was after the app finally launched without an error, I dragged all the non-Acrobat Reader folders inside of /Users/*myaccount*/Library/Application Support/Adobe back to the folder. I then re-launched Reader just to check and all was fine.
    Thanks! This fixed my Adobe Reader on Snow Leopard problem.

  • Adobe Elements 11 Organizer and Importing images from camera.

    I changed Adobe Elements version (from 10 to 11) and Brand New all-in-one Dell XPS computer that comes with Windows 8 as OS (From XP SP3) ... Now my import in Adobe Organzer gets stuck.   Adobe Elements sees the camera, and compares the files on my camera to the photos in Organizer and knows how may are duplicates.   I then select all the photos it finds as Non-Duplicates and tell it what directory to import into and select (Finish/Import) and it just sits there.  I can change anything on that screen for options, but it really is locked up.   I have to use Task Manager to end the task so that I can get back into Adobe Organizer.    Maybe there is some kind of incompatibility with Windows 8 I am not aware of?

    As you said "I am using this method as a bandaid, but this method will constantly copy all files (including old photos still on card) to a new folder.  This means that I have the same photo being copied from my cameras memory to multiple locations.  Not the best method (lots of clutter). "
    This is not so. Importing photos using Watched Folders doesn't copy your photos to any other location.
    Please empty your card and add 1-2 images to it. Now launch Photodownloader.exe from the location : C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 11 Organizer
    Post doing this, launch Organizer. Let's see if the import happens.
    Thanks

  • Adobe Cs4 - Can't change 1 image at a time .. ??

    hi guys, this is my first time in this forum, and i have been looking for the solution of this problem of mine for like 3 hour on the internet  and couldn't find anything .. so i came here ..
    well, the problem is, i am making a website (even tough i don't know much about editing and stuff yet) and i'm trying to use this Template.. there are tabs on the site with option etc, and i am having trouble editing 1 tab at a time .. everytime i change something in 1 tab, it automatically changes all the others as well .. i don't know why .. there is a green 'glowing' light green retangle around all the tabs.. it migh have something to do with what's happening.
    Screenshot:
    http://img695.imageshack.us/img695/2386/helpw.jpg
    and i'm really sorry i'm posting such a thing on my first post .. but i started using adobe flash cs4 yesterday ...

    Luckily that's not a CS4 file or I wouldn't be able to open it.
    If you go back to the image you showed in your first posting, that timeline you were editing is the key to having the names changed to what you want.  Each frame of that timeline holds a different label for the button.  So you need to edit those to be the labels you want to display.  The code to control which frame you land on for each button is on the buttons on the main timeline.
    If you go back to the main timeline and select one of the buttons, you will see code in the Actions panel like the following assigned...
    onClipEvent (load) {
    this.p = 1;
    lnk = "index.html"
    This code is placed on each button at each keyframe, so you need to edit it at each keyframe (if you need to edit it... you may not if changing the labels was all you needed).
    The line that says "this.p = 1;"  is what determines which label the button will have... that number is the keyframe of the button timeline you changed the names in.  Hopefully, the "link = " line is obviuous to you as far as what it's for.

  • Want a tutorial on expanding an images ppi and minimising jaggies

    I've been looking online for an up to date method. It's a while since I've had to do this, upsizing a photographic image. It was shot RAW so jpg compression squares is not the issue here. Just getting more pixels out of it for print job. Any links?
    I'm not looking for tutorials in how to make a 110% resize action! Nor a link to a paid product that is 110% resize actions for any given enlargement. All I found i last ten minutes online was this kind of out of date rubbish. While I know in same cases, like designing billboard movie posters finished artists go to the extent of painting out film grain with the wacom, I'm not looking to go that far. More judicious use of filters and unsharpened mask.
    I read once an Adobe engineer say that standard bi-cubic (introduced in CS2/3?) resize is more effective than step-enlarging with any of the algorithms. I haven't found that to be false so far, any opinions.

    If that were true, you'd probably have found my previous references to Smilla.
    At the risk of re-flaming the dying embers: That's a false positive. :\ </light-hearted-tone>
    Searching forums as you probably [] know is virtually (when not literally) non-deterministic and there often is a high noise-to-signal ratio. My search may have been poor and quick (as in 5 tokens and about 10 minutes) but a search it was. I didn't think to search for Smilla . I actually find the Adobe forums search difficult — even these new improved forums. When I search 'Smilla' for instance, I get 3 hits forum-wide.It has taken me 40 minutes of searching to find out sub-sets of forums must all be (shift-click) selected in filtered searches. So a search of "Adobe Photoshop" results in zero hits on all the search tokens it tried. That's not in the search tips either. For the occasional user these forums have a pretty average interface I think (although big improvement on the previous ones which were woeful).
    I used to answer a lot of Q on Apple discussions and always found it weird when others would get aggressive about somebody having not consulted the manual or searched the forum properly, it's like okay, ignore the question, but don't react with anger, respond graciously or not at all, am I right?
    Anyhow you've provided some useful open source software to the world so I don't want to give you a hard time about nuances. Thanks again.
    Having trouble getting the right balance between flat and dithering/noise with Similla btw, but I'm persevering. It definitely gives different results to Resize BiCubic, probably would need to see printed output to call which way to go is preferable in any given instance as I'm not experienced enough in pre-press to tell. I read the user guide, do you have any other commentary on good Similla technique?

  • Memory usage Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 - How many images are too many?

    My wife and I are having a discussion about the memory allocation of Adobe PSE 9.
    We run both of our profiles logged in on a 27" iMac top end from May, 2010, with 12 GB of RAM.
    She had a number of pictures open (let's say 20 - 25) that she was working on editing.  Trying to shut the program down or work within it, the spinning wheel of death made a cameo appearance and brought the system to a crawl.
    I ran Activity Monitor and it said that she had 746 MB of memory free out of 7.39 GB active and 11.27 GB used.  With each image I closed, I gained an additional 5 - 7 MB of free memory.
    Once I force quit PSE 9, that number jumped to nearly 2.5 GB free.
    For those with experience using PSE 9, can you give me an indication:
    How many images do you have open that you're working with at the same time?
    For those people with more Mac OS X experience, would having 750 MB free out of 12 GB reduce the computer to a crawl?
    Thanks in advance.

    As a general rule of thumb (some will disagree with me) if your machine has about 500MB of Free RAM or less this will slow down the computer significantly. Also as a general rule you can never have too much RAM. One nice thing about your machine is it can be upgraded up to as much as 32GB of RAM however 8GB chips are EXTREMELY expensive right now and currently only OWC sells a kit. You can upgrade to 16GB for a lot less, whether you need it or not no one here can say for sure. I would continue to keep an eye on Activity Monitor and keep my first sentence in the back of your mind.

  • Adobe Flash - Loss of quality in images

    It is so obvious that there is a noticable loss of quality in all files exported from LR
    Most of the people in this forum who try to help others with Lightroom are pleased with the quality of exported results we're getting. If you are unsatisfied, it would behoove to explain.
    I mean, for me, there is no loss of quality (in fact, image is 100% same) when exporting in original format. And when exporting in reduced sizes in formats like jpeg there is some softening unless output sharpening is applied.
    Otherwise, color is same, tone is same, brightness is same - it's all good for me...
    Exception: some viewers are not color managed, or are color managed but do it "wrong" (I have no idea why color management tends to be so problematic)  - in which case color (and to some extent tone) will be off...
    What about you?

    it is assumed that the photographer is doing something wrong
    Operator error is a frequent culprit, but it's not the only culprit - sometimes computer setup is to blame. But if that's the case, you know who is going to have to make it right, right? Anyway, if all is well using another software, that may be a path of less resistance.
    Don't get me wrong - Lr may have bugs which are influencing correct functioning in your case - but insisting that it's all Lr and none you (or your computer..) is a place from which there is nowhere to go, except to that other software we were talking about, but beware - it may have problems too .
    My advice: take a deep breath, maybe a walk, even sleep on it if need be, then start again from a cooler place.

    I might be incorrect in this, but think that there is a Ps Script, that will do what you want.
    I would ask in the Photoshop Forum: http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop
    and also in the Photoshop Scripting Forum: http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop/photoshop_scripting?view=discussions
    If my memory is not totally hosed, one of those should yield the Script (if it exists, as I claim to remember) for that task.
