Changing an image in a PSD file

Another quick question. How can I change an image in a psd website template file? The file I'm referring to is www.cfour11.com/index.psd
Again, I new and just learning. Thank you again for all your help.

Everything is on its own layer so it makes it easy to adjust.
To add the logo on the green background in the top left corner, find the green background first. It's this layer here (inside Images Folder in Layers Panel):
To stay organized, it's best if you add image directly above the green background. If it's the image file you want to add, then do this:
1. Select highlighted Layer in the Layers Panel.
2. Go to the menu: File->Place, and navigate to the file you want to add here. When the image appears inside Photoshop, you'll see handles around the image which allow you to resize it. When done, just press Enter.
Regarding your second question, the images you are talking about are here:
Hide them by clicking on Eyeball icons in front of the layers, and then Place new images in the same way as above.
I hope this helps.
Any questions, just ask.

Is there a way to change the image numbers in a file in Aperture?

Is there a way to change the image numbers in a file in Aperture? We shoot with two photographers and so the img numbers are not in order but I would like to have the photos in chronological order on the disc when I give it to them. Does anyone know how to do this? I have them all in order ready to go in Aperture but when I move them to the disc to be burned they default back to the img number order. Thanks for your help!

What do you mean by "image number"? The file names like "IMG_7822.CR2" or "IMG_7822.jpg"?
You can create custom names with appended numbers, when you export your image files to be saved on a disk.
Sort your images by date in the browser, select them, then use the command "File > Export > Version" to write the files to the disk. Set the name format to "Custem Name with Index" or "Custom Name with Counter" to create numbered names in your current sort order.

In Windows 8, how can I see an image of the psd file instead of the Photoshop icon?

In Windows 8, how can I see an image of the psd file instead of the Photoshop icon?

There are a number of third party solutions for this. I just use Bridge, so can't recommend one in particular.

Changing images' formats in .PSD files.

How can I change these without copying single images to new files, changing there and copying back?
e.g. I've pasted some large tiffs into one .psd and want to convert them to jpgs, keeping the rest of my .psd as it is.

Most image formats are disc-based, meaning that the format change takes place while saving the file. If you have a .psd and want a jpeg, SAVE IT as a jpeg, etc. -- This has advantages: there is potentially a lot more information in the psd file than the jpeg, so it is wise to retain the psd, as well as the jpeg you need in the moment.

Can I place an clipped eps image into a PSD file?

WINDOWS
CS2 Photoshop
I just started using CS2 - Can I place an eps image (saved with a clip path created in PSD) into a PSD file? I used to be able to do that in PSD 7.
When I place the eps file into PSD, I don't get the clip I get the entire image.
I made sure that I saved the file with the clip path.
Any thoughts? Thanks for the help.

Not that I'm aware of. The whole vector stuff has been changed for CS2, including completely revised file format loaders and later on the addition of smart objects of course, which of course is what you would do in CS3...

How can I access the thumbnail/preview image of a PSD file?

Hey guys I'm trying to salvage some work from a corrupted PSD file via the thumbnail. What happened was I saved my work and closed photoshop and hit the reset button on my PC afterwards by mistake (i dont see why this caused a problem because the program was fully closed at the time). When I open the file now it says it uses an unsupported blending mode, if i press ok I get an error saying incompatible PS version, if I press flatten it says unexpected end of file was encountered. Ive tried PSD repair tools and searched the net for solutions and there doesnt seem to be any - Ive pretty much given up on trying to repair the original file.
The thing is, the thumbnail of the file seems to be intact because I can still see it as the file icon. I wanted to know if there was any way i can access this thumbnail image so i can enlarge it. Any help would be very appreciated!!

I have an idea to try... Earlier I mentioned the Windows Picture Viewer... Normally that won't read PSD files, but I'm used to using that to look into PSD files because at one point I bought the FastPictureViewer Codec Pack.
Something to try, and it won't cost anything:
1. Try downloading and installing the FastPictureViewer Codec Pack from here: http://www.fastpictureviewer.com/codecs/
2. Once it's installed you get a free trial period, so you can try opening your PSD file by right-clicking on it and choosing Preview.
If that fails, here's another thing to try:
Open the Bridge component of Photoshop and navigate to the folder in which you have the file. It may be able to make a larger thumbnail than the one you're seeing.
Other than that, are you saying you're seeing the thumbnail in Windows Explorer? If that's the case, what happens if you right-click in the white space near the file and choose View - Extra Large Icons?

Automatically change linked images path in AI files when server has changed?

A customer of ours have replaced their server and now all AI files containing linked to images are broken as they point to the old server. I have opened an AI file and there I can see the paths to the old server, but of course I cannot just edit the path and then save the file because then it won't open in Illustrator CS3 anymore. Is there any way other than to manually go through all AI files and manually replacing the links with the new links to the old server, or to use embedded images?

Jasion,
Maybe a bit beside the question, but it is always recommended here to open/save from/to own hard disk, and to copy from/to networks and removable media. You may be lucky, at least for a while, but it is better to be safe than sorry.
In addition to the (far greater) risk of file corruption, some issues are mentioned here:

Imported Photoshop Layers change in Motion after re-saving PSD file

Curious if anyone has seen this issue:
I have a multi-layered Photoshop CS drawing that I import (All Layers) into Motion to animate. No problem.
If I make a change to the original Photoshop PSD file, the Motion layers are updated incorrectly. The layers are swapped and their locations move. The only fix I have is to completely re-import the file and start from scratch.
I've also seen the Motion layers change slightly if I just save the PSD file again without changes. They are minor, but still apparent.
Anyone, anyone?
Dual 2GHz G5 : 3GB RAM Mac OS X (10.4.5) FCP5

Lesson learned. Do you know, is the a problem only if PS and Motion are open at the same time?
I like the fact that Motion attempts to update, but the fact it does it wrong is a bummer. I suppose if this only happens when the two programs are open one could simply close motion, change one or two layers in photoshop, and import only those layer into Motion upon re-opening. Not a big deal.
I may try and see what happens... with a small project without a deadline...

Unspported Image format with PSD RGB files

I been using Aperture from the first day it became available. My file are either RAW or PSD files. Lately I have been creating panoramic images in Photoshop and importing them into Aperture. All the images are RGB PSD files. My understanding is that Aperture support these formats, but I have three images that can not be viewed in Aperture. All I get is the Unsupported image Format. I have rebuild my library. Resaved the images, double checked and recheck to make sure the images are RGB, Reinstalled Aperture. Nothing works. Sometimes the image can been seen in Aperture but as I work the images are replaced by the unsupported Image Format error. I would like to published my images to my site and print the image out of Aperture for shows. Any suggestions on how to fix this issues.

How big are the files? It's easily possible to generate Photoshop files that are too big -- e.g. PSB files which can be 2 GB or more in size -- if you are stitching.
Also note you should have "maximize compatibility" turned on in Photoshop -- this saves a flattened layer in the file so it can be properly displayed in Aperture, given Aperture itself doesn't understand the layers. I don't think this latter thing is your issue though.

Set image link to a file which not yet exists

Hi to all,
I'm working with InDesignCS2 on Mac and Windows.
Is it possible to set an image link to a file which does not exists yet.
I have document with some JPG files in low resolution.
Later, if the document layout is finished, I want to
change the image links of the document to corresponding PSD files.
E.g.
The document is layouted with the imges image1.jpg, image2.jpg, image3.jpg.
Now a want to change the links to corresponding PSD files image1.psd, image2.psd, image3.psd.
BUT: the PSD file do no exist on the current working place.
The images image1.psd, image2.psd, image3.psd exist on a destination working place.
The document with the missing PSD links will be copied to the destination working place,
in the some folder where the PSD file are placed.
If I open the document on the destination working place the links set on the first
working place should be satisfied now.
Now it should be possible to print the document with the hires PSD images.
My question:
How can I set a link to an image which does not exist yet?
The name, the path and the format are known.
Please let me know, if you have an idea how to do that.
Thanks.

I might be proven wrong but I don't think you can link to a picture file that's missing.
That would be an interesting feature actually - but probably too smart.
What you could do instead is to use a dummy picture file to be replaced later in your production workflow.
Something I did a long time ago was to create a text frame with the full path written in there.
Then I was making a snapshot of this text frame.
Then I was replacing the text frame by a picture frame - same size, position, etc.
Then I was placing the snapshot within this picture frame...
At the end I had a link to a temporary picture file that was displaying its full path to the layout artist - providing a valid link to a real picture, to be switched to the real one later in my customer production workflow.
This is a classical case actually - and I'm sure there is dozens of solutions implemented out there . . .

Preview PSD file icons

I just switched fom CS4 to CS5 and now my PSD files no longer show me a preview of the images. I know it has nothing to do with the versions because I have saved CS5 PSDs and the icons still do not show the actual image, just the standard PS icon. How can I set CS5 to show me the actual image of the PSD file on the icon instead of a standard PS icon?

Change all instances of the Photoshop version to whatever you're using, i.e., "Photoshop.Image.9" becomes "Photoshop.Image.11" if you are using CS4.
Save as Install.reg, right click and choose Merge. Make sure you have the psicon.dll where it's supposed to be. Google for this info if you don't have the icon already in place.
Is this a hack? Depends on your definition. Photoshop used to do this whenever you installed a version prior to CS.
Of course, the usual disclaimers and warnings apply: May cause data and or hair loss. May contribute to swollen hemorrhoids, painful rectal itch and erectile dysfunction. Do not let children play with the reg file without supervision. Consult a doctor immediately if monkeys fly out of your butt.
OK, seriously now, data loss is the real concern. Most folks never had the problem but some did and that's why Adobe scuttled the icon thing.

Saving tiff or jpg files within a single, existing psd file without creating new files

     Hi, I just bought CS5 and I wonder if it is possible to save multiple images that are created within a single psd file in jpg or other image file formats without creating new psd files, but rather saving them as "embedded" within the single psd file in whih they are created. For example, one could select a portion of an image that one has created, and save just that selection as a jpg without leaving the existing psd file, and after that, one could select another portion of the same image and save it as a tiff, etc. Is this possible?
Much thanks.

No and Yes!
You can do much of what you want, but not exactly as you described it. You can certainly make multiple selections and have them saved in the psd file. You can also save jpg version of those selections, but you have to do a little extra work.
Lets say, by way of example, you have an image and you want to make three different selections within that image, save each selection as a jpeg, and save those selections along with the full image as a psd file. You can do the following, which is just one way of several to proceed, with your image opened.
1. Make selection 1, hit Ctrl+J to jump that selection to a new layer
2. Make selection 2, hit Ctrl+J to jump that selection to a new layer
3. Make selection 3, hit Ctrl+J to jump that selection to a new layer
4. Alt click on the layer with selection 1. This makes only that layer visible.
5. Click on Layer > Duplicate Layer > destination New > give it a name
6. This creates a new (temporary document). Open it.
     click Image > Trim > transparent pixels
     click Save for Web & Devces, select your parameters and save your jpeg
     Close and discard this temporary file.
7. Repeat steps 4,5 & 6 for selection 2 & selection 3
8. Save your psd file
You now have three jpegs and a psd file with all the information to create or modify the original selections

PSD files saved as Photoshop Image 13

I have been using Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit) on my Windows 8.1 laptop (64 bit) for over a year and has been working perfect. About two days ago something weird happened. All of my PSD files show that they are Photoshop Image 13 files instead of showing it as a regular Photoshop document. When I open a file or import another Photoshop file, I get a dialogue box saying that the "file cannot be opened because it is not compatible with the current version of Photoshop". I can't figure out what happened. I never saved any files differently that could cause this. I even checked my preferences to see if something was accidentally changed but everything is unchanged. I even uninstalled Design And Web Premium CS6 from my computer and reinstalled it to no avail. What happened? Can someone please help!

Changes made in LR 1.3 to psd files are not reflected in ACR 4.3, Bridge 2.1.1.9, or Photoshop CS3

I have repeatedly imported several psd images into LR 1.3, made changes in the develop mode, and saved metadata to file manually in addition to having the auto write metadata option on in LR and ACR. Any changes I have made in LR are not reflecting in Bridge previews or in ACR or Photoshop. I don't believe I should have to utilize the write to xmp options (even though I have been) since the files in question are psd and the metadata gets written directly into the file. If I delete the photo from LR, and even delete the LR catalog (new user trying to make it work with 1 photo at least before importing all images) and re-import the psd to LR it appears with the changes and can backlog in the history panel to it's original state upon import into LR. I would have to be in LR though to know that anything was altered as the other Adobe programs will not display the changes.
If anyone has any help - I would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks,
Ann

PS CS3 (updated last week)

I don't think the problem lies in the name. LR is after all meant to function as a data base of images and be a companion program to PS - with PS doing the heavy editing lifting. I do understand that PS is a pixel editing file and LR is not. I like the idea of the non-destructive editing that LR has to offer and for a lot of image "developing" I prefer LR's interface to ACR.
In my humble opinion, I just think that the Photoshop family of products should all be able to read the same metadata. If I am starting in LR with a psd file (with layers) and I continue to process the image further in LR and save the metadata - therefore saving the changes - I want to be able to open that same file (not another copy) in ACR, PS, or Bridge and have those changes reflected. The only way to do that currently is to export the file and when you do that you lose the PS layers and the LR history panel or another way around it is you can have edit copies of the same file. If at a later date you wanted to go back and change something, you can't just pull out a layer in PS or undo a history state in LR and with the multiple copies of essentially the same image you end us with any editing history scattered amongst multiple files. I already keep 2-4 (original, psd, jpeg print, jpeg web) files for one image which I think is more than adequate. Which is why I find the current set up so frustrating. For now I have just settled for exporting jpegs so I can see the changes.
