How can I fix an image created by Focus Stacking in PS6

The below image was created using 8 photos using the Focus Stacking process in PS6 (I have carried it our correctly) but it doesn't like up properly when blended together. I have tried it about 8 times and get the same result every time.
Is there anyway I can fix this photograph so that it is all in alignment?
See around the 3 and 9 positions it is out of alignment.
Expert help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your assistance in this matter.
This has been frustrating the crap out of me for the last week (not that the photo is important, it is just that I like to conquer and solve this types of issues)
I was shooting with an aperture of 7.1. 
I changed the exposure on the photos as you had done previously but this only blew out the watch and I couldn't recover it afterwards and the alignment was no better any way.  So then I started experimenting as you suggested, and I don't know if what I am about to write is acceptable in an Adobe forum, but here goes.
I tried Helicon Focus and it was terrible, but I must admit I didn't know how to really use it, it doesn't seem to have any alignment function and is very difficult to try to use and understand.
then I tried Hugin and I am not even sure if this is image stacking software or just an alignment software, anyway that didn't work either and kept saying the output was a very bad match.
THEN I downloaded and tried zerestacker (free 30 day trial)  (after reading about it in a google search) and WOW, it worked amazing, see below photo, it was so easy to use and the interface is easy as well and it does the alignment and stacking in the same process and you can see the image output show up on the left of the screen.  Sorry PS but I will be using ZS for photostacking from now on. Adobe need to buy this company and incorporate it in to PS CC6.
This is just so much better than anything I got out of PS, there is no ghosting or blurring and the alignment is perfect and it is so simple to use.

  • How can I convert an image created in Photoshop into a format that Java's ImageIO library will take?

    Hi all,
    I've been trying to write an image resize tool to use the Lancoz resample algorithm to resize images to a high standard in Java.  The library with the algorithm/filter in it is mortennobel's image scaling library and it takes a buffered image as an input and returns the resized image as desired.  However the trouble I’m having is that the ImageIO library in Java, a standard library, which converts images given to its read method to buffered images doesn't accept certain images created in Photoshop and so it throws an exception.  My library needs to be fully automated to process possible thousands of images at a time and so manually converting them by resaving them as JPEG's is really feasibly.  Is there some way I can convert these images from Adobes Exif format to standard JFIF format?  I've tried simple inserting the APP0 marker from a JFIF image in-between the SOI and APP1 marker but the ImageIO library still failed.
    The above image is a screenshot of the binary in hex of one of the images that cause an Invalid Format exception when passed to ImageIO.
    Any help you could offer me with this would be much appreciated.
    Kind regards and thank you,
    Alexei Blue
    Science Warehouse.
    NB: I previously posted this post in Developers but was told to post it in a Photoshop forum so apologies if this is the incorrect formum

    The image scaling library does have a BiCubicFilter in it so I'll experiment around with them and see what happens.  As for the imageIO library I think it accepts Exif image types, but still for some reason it just doesn't like Adobe Photoshop types.  Maybe its the colour map it doesn't like I just can't seem to work out what's wrong which is slightly frustrating but looking round to see if I can find an answer

  • How can I fix the image size in a "Picture Library Slideshow Web Part"

    When I upload images to be used in the Slideshow Web Part they become skewed because they are different sizes. Is there a way to fix this besides uploading images that are all the same size? 
    Thanks,
    Kathleen

     Display Slide Show Images within fixed size
    The Picture Library Slide Show Web Part show the images stored in a picture library with slide show effect.
    This slide show web part displays the images with it's original size. Due to this the web part changes its size according to the image size. If we want the slide show to run within the specific size on the page then we need to control the size of the images
    to the fixed length during runtime.
    To achieve this we need to add the CEWP above the picture Library Slide Show web part & insert the following script in that web part.
    <style type="text/css">
    .ms-WPBody TD {
        PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: auto !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
    auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
    .ms-WPBody TD DIV {
        PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 100% !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
    auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
    .ms-WPBody TD IMG {
        PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 260px !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
    190px !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px; align: center
    .s4-wpcell-plain {
        PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 100% !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
    auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
    .ms-PartSpacingVertical {
        MARGIN-"color:#783f04;font-family:'Courier New',Courier,monospace;" />}
    .style1 {
        COLOR: #808080
    }</style>
    We can fix the height & width of the image in the .ms-WPBody TD IMG css.

  • How can I fix corrupted images in my contacts?

    I've just got a 30GB iPod as my 5 year old 1st gen iPod has sadly died
    Now I can see pictures of my mates against entries in the Address Book / Contacts on my iPod. However, on some of the pictures, the lower 25% of the picture is corrupt on the iPod although fine in Address Book. There appears to be no pattern - any ideas?

    You will get this warning, if your book includes textboxes that still include the default text, like "Insert Title". You need to find these boxes and add your own text.  Look for boxes like this:
    Make a PDF-preview of your book and look, where the preview differs from what you are seeing in iPhoto.

  • Images in my FrameMaker 10-sourced Robohelp Web Help project are turning out as blank JPEGS appearing as blank spaces in the final output. How can I fix this?

    I'm attempting to create online help sourced from a FrameMaker 10 book using Robohelp 9 and Web Help (primary layout).
    The text is interspersed with numeorus small icons which, in the FrameMaker documents, are .bmp images inserted into anchored frames in the lines of text.
    Most of these icons were imported by reference into the FrameMaker book's chapters. Some were copied from another FrameMaker book and pasted into the present book.
    Many of these images are turning out blank in the finished Help project.
    Robohelp seems to convert these images into JPEGS.
    In the source FrameMaker book, the images which appear OK in the Help project have Object Properties including: Facets: FrameVector   JPEG ... Referenced File: No File
    The images which appear blank have different object properties there: Facets: DIB ... Referenced File: (address of the image's source file)
    How can I fix this and make all of the images appear in the Online Help?

    Sorry, Jeff. I missed the key word in your instructions. Well, I did the import and still no luck. I'm getting the exact same results with the same images. (In some cases, I'm even getting hidden conditional text from the FM document body showing up in the image's frame instead of the image! See below.) This is bizarre behavior, but it's not new with the import. It is happening both in the linked and imported WebHelp with the same exact images. (Just another piece to complicate the puzzle.) So we have some jpeg images that are blank, and a few that are glitchy. From what I can tell, the commonality, besides the fact that all these new images are in jpeg format instead of gif format, is that all the blank and glitchy images are in a text inset. I'm beginning to think maybe RH just doesn't support text insets at all.
    Arnis, I'll have to ask my colleague how she created the images next week when she's back from vacation. I have no clue if there are any differences between the jpegs and why some are showing up correctly. What do you mean by "compression type or level?" Are you asking about the resolution (high, medium, low) she chose when saving the images, or which program she used to do the screen capture and editing? (We have Adobe Photoshop CS5 and FM 11).
    My next step is to copy-paste all the content from the text insets into my FM document (in the book I am linking) and re-render to see if that solves the problem. It will make single-sourcing impossible because I'll have to copy-paste the new content and images my colleague creates into my document each time we do an update, but oh well.
    Here is an example of a glitchy image in RH:
    And here is what it looks like in FM:
    So bizarre!

    I tried to switch on Netinstall on just on just brand new Apple mini server,  all the data have filed and green light is on, except of Netinstall which requesting me to add an image and file in the library/netboot/ is empty for that. If even I try to add it on the NEtinstall page, there small gear tab blanked and cn not modified at all whatever I did, I have not modified any thing there - so that is suprice why on the new apple happening with me that, may be a problem in a software or I just don't know somne thing. On the apple support page also there is no information for  OSX10.8.2 server how can I fix this problem,  Could some one explain how is possible to finaly make an image and make netinsall to work, I will be much appreciated for that,

    You need to create a NetInstall image using System Image Utility. You can launch it from the "Tools" menu of Server.app.
    To use System Image Utility, you will need an installed volume, or an Install Mac OS X application from the Mac App Store.

    Photomerge panorama produces an empty merge file from two images; how can I fix this? Thanks

    If you did not create this swf yourself then you won't be able to do what I am suggesting.  If you did, then open the fla in Flash and go into the Publish Settings and select the option to publish an html file as an output.  That will create an html page that embeds the Flash file.  Test that file in your browser and see if it plays properly.  IF so, then copy that code in place of whatever Dreamweaver did to embed the Flash.
    Dreamweaver is not a reliable tool for embedding Flash content... why it does not do it the same way Flash does it is anyone's guess.

    @Naiks, having suffered through unsuccessful synching attempts for Calendar and Contacts myself, l would suggest you try the following:
    UNINSTALL iCloud control panel from your PC. Seems silly, but do it.
    Go into Outlook, and look at the very top menu. Click FILE, then ACCOUNT SETTINGS, then click the popup box.
    You will see a list of all your email accounts. Make sure that ONE of them has a checkmark against it. If not, select the account your want as your default, and click "set as default.
    Exit out of Outlook and reboot your machine.
    Now reinstall iCloud, check CALENDAR and CONTACTS, and do as instructed when prompted.
    Reboot for good luck and now launch OUTLOOK. All that remains is to locate your iCloud Contacts and Calendar files, and make them your default.
    IMPORTANT: Don't panic if you can't find your contacts -- they're there. Click CONTACTS and you'll see you have several available contact files. Locate the one label "iCloud" in grey type. Right-click on it, select PROPERTIES, then click the Outlook Address Book tab. Check the box that says something like "Make this my default Outlook Address Book." Keep clicking "apply" and "okay" until you've exited out of the dialog box maze.
    You may have to do something similar with your Calendar files. I dd not, but if you need to, do it.
    Everything should now sync pretty seamlessly.
    I didn't have the exact same problem as you, but my dilemma was close enough. Good luck!
