Help with making translucent image elements opaque

I have attached this image that I am modifying. As it is, it's a watermark. But I want to convert the words and graphic portion to a logo, but have no clue how to change them from translucent elements to color. I don't think I'm explaining it well, but I've attached the layered PSD file. If someone could please tell me how to do this, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

Susan,
To do this work, you will probably want to go to Edit>Preferences>Transparency and change from the gray checkerboard to white. Things will pop better for you. Just do not forget to change it back, or you'll wonder where your Transparency went (been there - done that).
Good luck, and hope that helps,
Hunt

    I just googled and found lots of folks with the same problem.  One fellow wrote this as a soluton:
    "All you have to do is
    remove the values from the imageLinks in the flash element. That
    should fix it."
    Does it?

    Hello guys,
    I need help with making a JLabel object visible for a few seconds only and disappear when a JButton has been clicked.

    I need to do this in a number of cases from a switch statement because I several buttons.Better to have several ActionListeners, one for each button or each type of button, rather than one ActionListener with a large switch statement, a so-called switch-board listener.

  • Help with CS4 tabbed image mode?

    How does one drag a layer from one image to another in tabbed mode?
    I'm forcing myself to work with the tabbed image interface as I assume someone thought this new feature was a good idea.
    I often drag or shift+drag layers from one image to another, whether it be adjustments or image elements that need to be placed (in register) as a layer in another open image.
    But when I use the tabbed interface mode any attempt to drag a layer from one tab to another does not work.
    What am I missing???
    Thanks
    Russell

    Yeah I noticed the same limitation.. they making floating document mode extra ****(UI interface that doesn't adhere to System OS visual style, documents that no longer move with the main PS UI, like when you adjust the mainframe size or move the window floating docs would get moved and stay within the UI, unless you dragged and floating doc outside the main ui frame, which was good, but now it seems floating docs always live outside the mainframe and appear above docked although open panel UIs.. not to mention the new theme looks like complete and utter dogshit.. but oh well.. CS5 might get some more work.. maybe they'll bring back the pallete well.. ******* adobe noobs.
    I too liked to drag & drop of layer objects onto another document its common thing I do when working in photoshop.. I just can't believe how lame Adobe are that they couldn't allow this functionality seeing as a tabbed UI is the default setup now..
    seems like the only way around it is to use the now **** floating document mode... or use one of the splitview modes.. course those are crap, but at least you can D&D layer objects, and then switch back the single doc tab.
    lets not get into the flakey **** opengl support and functionality.

  • Help with XMLSEQUENCE and repeating elements

    I need help with the following XML extraction (note this is on Oracle9i). I have the following XML structure. There are multiple <Reading> elements
    <MeterReadings>
    <MeterReading>
    <Meter>
    <id>0004128190</id>
    <idType>METER_X_UNIVERSAL_ID</idType>

    <value>22222</value>
    <readingTypeId>KWHP</readingTypeId>
    </Reading>
    </MeterReading>
    </MeterReadings>
    I want to return one row for each <reading> element, including all its sub-elements - <value> and <readingTypeId>
    So, for the above data set, I would like to get back something like this. The parent elements can be repeated.
    <meter/id>,<Premise/id>,<Reading/value>,<Reading/readingTypeId>
    0004128190,PREM4128190,11111,CKWH

    extractvalue(value(p),'value'), extractvalue(value(p),'readingTypeId')
    from myTable i,
    table(XMLSequence(
    extract(i._xml_message, '//Reading/*' ))) p
    But then I get results like this, where each sub-element results in a new row:
    0004128190     11111     null
    0004128190     null     CKWH
    0004128190     22222     null

  • Help with exporting and image size or boundaries?

    I am trying to slide the cat into the scene a little at a time foir an animation project I am working on. However, when I export the image the back ground of the image expands with a checkered back ground( showing here in white) and shows the whole cat.
    How do I just show a little of the cat on the image at a time when exporting. I am trying to give the impression that the cat is walking into the room. I do not want to have to cut the cat up.
    I would be thankful for any suggestions.

  • Help with making part of a picture transparent

    I am very new to Indesign, and I am trying to teach myself how to use it. I was using Microsoft Publisher for my last project, in which I was able to use a transparency tool to click on part of a .gif image to make it transparent, whilst leaving the rest of the image intact.
    I am trying to place an image on top of a background image using Indesign. My image is a picture of a sun, surrounded with a white box. When I place the sun on top of the background colour, I still get the white box around the sun, and I can't find any way of eliminating the white box, whilst retaining the yellow sun image. I hope this makes sense!
    Can anyone help with his? I will need to do this quite a few times during the course of my project so any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks. Bev

    Eugene,
    Is it fair to make the sweeping statement that "GIF is not a print format"?
    I don't know how “fair” the statement is, but it’s balls accurate. GIFs are RGB, limited to 256 colours only, and have only one bit of transparency. The format is absolutely inappropriate for print.
    I can think of a few situations in which GIFs are useful for print as well as the web. For example, GIFs allow nonprofessionals to use logos with solid blocks of color, simple transparency, without color management concerns, and so on, both on the web and in almost all print applications that nonprofessionals use.
    Automatic transmissions and power steering make it possible for a recent driver’s license recipient to take the family station wagon around Laguna Seca. That doesn’t make him Emerson Fitipaldi or make the car a Formula-1 racer.
    Isn't it a cheap-and-cheerful, universal, perfectly OK format for print?
    No.
    It has limitations that are obvious to professionals, but it isn't always a mistake to use it in print.
    It sure is. Print does not mean “printed to my $60 inkjet.” Print means “printed on a digital colour printer or on a press.” In that context, GIF’s only use is as a source for later conversion to a superior format. Even if printing to a POS inket, conversion to PSD, TIF, Illustrator, PDF, or even PNG would put the image into a superior format that is more suitable for print.
    GIF is not suitable for print. Period.

    - it isn't the problem, *.gif works perfectly. But thanks, your note is helpful, i'll redraw images to png:).
    To Daryll.Burke - I think, that my style of writing on this forum wasn't the main problem. If you want to help me, please focus to problem itself and not on details ;). I have rewritten everything, hope that it will be more readable for you.
    edit.: I have read my note from yesterday second time, and i think, i wouldn't understand it too, so sorry, man;)
    Main problem (or definition of "doesn't work, as you said) is, that every time i try to compare *tile[tilenum]* (where tilenum is from interval <0;600) ) with *null* object, NullPointerException is thrown.
    {code}Image tile[] = new Image[600]

  • Help with creating thumbnail images

    Hi there
    I need some help with a webpage that displays images.
    I am capturing an internal xml file ..and want to display:
    An Image or images with a width of 130 px and height of 130
    px
    My problem is that when our users upload the pictures to the
    website ..they are not resized ..and they would not know how to use
    a program to do this.
    Is there a code or way to take the uploaded picture file and
    reduce it to a size of 130 x 130 in the existing page?
    It currently is displaying the full size image(s) which are
    take up 2 screens.
    thanks for your time ..Rob

    > Is there a code or way to take the uploaded picture file

    In the HTML you can just give it a width and height of those
    values.
    However, the full image is still loaded by the browser, so if
    the image is
    large, it's still going to be a bandwidth hog.
    Ideally, you'd resize on the server at time of upload. This
    can be done with
    various components depending on the particular back-end
    server/scripting
    language.

  • Need Help With Waveform-driven Image Effects

    Hi,
    I've been working on a full-dome 3D animation for a couple of years now and I'm looking for someone to help with a custom plug-in for After Effects, Photoshop and/or Combustion. I need to be able to drive filters and effects like Brush Strokes and 'sketchy' noise with the waveform from an audio file. I've been using a very poor mans workflow in which I've mapped the waveform by breaking it up into vertical ranges of varying intensities and then applying respective levels of the effects and filters to the sequential images based on where they fall in the waveform ranges. So for the test Ive done, I've been literally applying Photoshop actions to very small packets of still images from rendered sequences, and it has been dizzyingly time-consuming. Ideally I would want to be able to do this dynamically with a motion graphics package, but really I'm looking for as much help as I can get.
    This project began as my master's thesis and I'm working on it during the free time I have between teaching and freelance work; I don't have much money but I am willing to pay for help with this goal. There is still a lot of 3D work that I still need to do and the rendering process will be slow, so this wouldn't be a job with strict or tight deadlines. The final images will be very large (3200x3200) and with the growth in the full-dome market, these sizes could easily increase. If anyone is interested or could help me with this endeavor in any way, please respond to [email protected] Thank in advance to anyone who reads this.
    Max

    See the SDK_Backwards sample to see how to acquire audio data from a layer. This is the same access method used by AE's own waveform drawing plug-ins. Feel free to contact me directly with any questions.

    Any clue?

    i know that was the case in Leopard and Snow Leopard but i just mounted a leopard image to create a new netrestore on my lion server.  i was not able to boot any of my images created on Leopard or SL when running Lion Server.  I assume i need to recreate the images on Lion.  Right now my Lion server is using a leopard image as the source to create a netrestore i can push on the Lion server.

  • Help with making start up disk from .dmg image on hard drive

    HI Guys hope you can help i have a .DMG image of my OSX install files and need to know how i burn this onto a dvd so i can use it as a start up disk or do a reinstall.
    Never had to even think about any of this before so an idiots guide would be most useful burned the .dmg image to a disk but it wont work as a start up disk and if i open it once inserted it wont work using the start up disk application within system preferences
    Any help appreciated

    An image of your hard drive? No. A copy of Tiger DVD?
    It could be done under Panther with a program called BootCD, but not Tiger.
    Why? when you can easily clone your system to a FW drive partition and use that as needed. Or use TechTool Pro 4.5.1 to put an "eDrive" on your boot drive or another drive (~7GB) just for emergencies.
    You can use Disk Utility to Restore your boot drive to a disk image and back if you want to store it on another drive and in the event of disaster striking and you need to erase and restore.

  • Need help with making a Watermark

    I am using Photoshop Elements 8 to make a watermark.  All goes well until I get to the (Go to edit>select "Define Brushes")  Define Brushes is not highlighted and will not let me select it.  Helpful solutions would be most welcome.  I have tried a number of things including uninstallingthe program, restarting, installing.  I'm out of ideas.

    You need to have an open image. So you must first create your watermark. Here are instructions for making a text watermark with bevel.
    Create a template using the editor:
    File >> New >> Blank File
    Set your dimensions and resolution of 72 and choose transparent for your background color.
    Select the type tool and add your name or watermark information.
    Choose the effects pallet and under styles find the bevels. Drag the one you cant on top of the text. The go to File >> Save For Web
    Select file type PNG24 (that will preserve the transparency) and then save your file.
    You can now use this file to make your brush.
    Go to Edit >> Define Brush
    After you have saved your new brush pre-set select the brush tool and scroll down to the bottom of the brush list. You can apply to photos with one click.
