How do I cut an image in half and move the halves independently?

How do I cut an image in half, and move the halves independently?

Use the rectangular marquee tool to select half the image, then Layer>New Layer via cut. You can turn on the rulers and set a guide so you'll know the boundaries you want if you need it to be exactly half.
If you want to also be able to move the other half, before you start double click the background layer in the layers panel to turn it to a regular layer.

  • How do I take an image in Illustrator and change the size ?

    I have a image I need to down size for my website how do I make it smaller ?

    Gordon,
    You may (you can do that to a raster image or to vector artwork):
    1) Fit the image to the Artboard or fit the Artboard to the image, or set Crop Area/Marks in earlier versions;
    2) Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S/Cmd+Option+Shift+S or File>Save for Web, setting the desired smaller pixel x pixel size in the Image Size window, then click Save.
    You may tick Art Optimized (or Type Optimized for live Type optimization) in the Image Size window, and you may tick Transparency in the main Save for Web window, if relevant. PNG24 is the best format for vector artwork, and may also be used for raster images.

  • I am using an Macbook pro in conjunction with a Time Capsule. I back up all my aperture librarys on it, but how can i view these images that are stored on the capsule please ??

    I am using an Macbook pro in conjunction with a Time Capsule. I back up all my aperture librarys on it, but how can i view these images that are stored on the capsule please ??

    If you want to see what is in a file that is backed up by time machine then you have to restore the entire file. Having said that I have had good experience with Time Machine and individual files... if the file is there then all of it's components are almost for sure there. A way to get around this in Aperture would be to use referenced images. The images then still exist as individual files and can be backed up and restored individually. You would have to do so on a file by file basis though and your album information would still only be saved within the Aperture library.

    When I drag the item off of the trifold that I am creating, it just disappears but I still want to use it.  I just need to move it out of the way to modify other portions of the document.

  • How do I get an image from Picasa and transfer it to photoshop to work on it.?

    how do I obtain an image from picasa and bring it to ps to work on it?

    Are you using a Windows system, and do you have File Explore set to show extensions?  I am wondering if the file name might look like:
    'Starbirds Picture.jpg.tiff'  ?
    The fact that you say the image looks different after reducing its bit depth makes me think you are right about it being 32 bit, but as Chris said, it can't be a JPG.
    Your computer monitor is not capable of displaying the full tonal range of a 32bit image produced by an HDR program like Photomatix or Photoshop, so it has to make compromises.  You have to chose what process to use to reduce its bit depth to give it the look you are after.  I prefer Photomatix for HDR.  If you install a trial version and open your 32 bit image in it, you can then chose one of the options to convert it to 16 or 8 bit.  These might be Tone Mapping, Exposure Fusion, or Tone Compression.   Tone Mapping is the option that produces the typical HDR look.
    But you are using Photoshop.  I haven't noticed what version you are using, but Google Photoshop (your version) HDR processing, and you'll see how to control the end look of the image.

    How can I type a word on an Image in Ps and change the background of the text box

    Photoshop doesnt have an ability to fill a text box so you will have to create a layer underneath the text layer. A shape layer work work well. That can be filled and stroked quite easily with editability.

  • How do I put an image on my podcast in the itunes store?

    How do I put an image on my podcast in the itunes store?

    The image which appears in the Store page is referenced in the 'itunes:image' tag in the feed. As you are probably using a program or an online service to create your podcast, rather than hand-writing the feed, you will need to look in their Help to find out where you input the image or the reference to it.

  • How do I view multiple images from different projects at the same time?

    Hello
    I've been trying to find the answer in the user manual, but no luck so far.
    I did find how to open 2 projects at once, but I can only see one image at a time in the viewer and I have to keep going back and forth between projects to compare images. (These are scans of old photos and I want to eliminate the ones that are poorer quality, so need to compare numerous images from 2 sets of scans)
    How can I view an image from one project at the same time as an image from another? I know that it can be done in the same project by apple-clicking the second, third etc image, but this doesn't work if the images are from different projects.
    Thank you
    Elizabeth

    Thank you again Tony
    I've now created an album, independent of the projects, and dragged test images into it and it does just the job I needed. Now i just need to keep my brain sorted with which ones are which while i'm working

  • Need to cut a word in half and insert text inside

    need to cut a word in half and insert text inside like this: http://looksgreat.tumblr.com/post/56189410707/tutorial-letra-dividida

    Hi,
    For me, Jongware is right! It's very easy and cool to do it directly in InDesign (with totally editable text). Here's a sample:

  • Need to cut a word in half and insert text inside, in Illustrator or InDesign

    need to cut a word in half and insert text inside, in Illustrator or InDesign, like this: http://looksgreat.tumblr.com/post/56189410707/tutorial-letra-dividida

    That's fine. Everybody has their own preferences. I find it odd that you feel the need to criticize mine. Personally, I've been a Prepress Tech for 25 years, the last 15 in a digital environment on Mac Workstations. I work with live fonts and outlined text every day. I've had way more headaches with font substitution and reflow than I've ever had with vector art. Most of the time, I leave live text as live text. But if I'm designing a Logo or art that is intended to be placed in multiple documents and probably scaled, I'm going to convert it to paths. Much less chance of the RIP screwing it up that way.
    Your answer to OPs question was spot on. So was mine. There is rarely only one right way to create something in Illustrator. If you don't care for my methods, then don't use them. But let me assure you, I don't need any schooling from you. The fact that you seem compelled to engage me on this may say something about your personality. Micro-manage much?

  • How do I erase all images from a card in the Cannon Rebel t3

    how do I erase all images from a card in the Cannon Rebel t3

    Hello debrusso,
    I would just like to give some quick advice that you all may already know but I was just told this countless of times that I thought you all would like to know. \
    I have been told by numerous of photography professors that it is always best to try to format your camera every now and then. Because your memory card is not really deleting the photos but rather hiding it somewhere. This is a problem because it still takes space from your card. The solution to this is to FORMAT because it is one of the safest ways for your camera to erase images. It also sets up properly for your camera like new. But make sure to save your images before doing formatting. I have had many silly accidents this way. Lol.

  • I placed a comment a few minutes ago and just like the Verizon stors, I get "NO" help !! Maybe I should cut my bil in half and see what Sprint has to offer !!

    I am so fed up with Verizon !!! I go into stores, tell them the problem and they take my phone, do some things to my phone ad tell me it is fixed !! I leave the store and a couple hundred feet away my phone goes off !! This has been going on for months. Verizon has to do a better job in training their people. I have been with Verizon all the time but, you are giving me reason to cut my bill in half and try Sprint !! Realbob

    So what exactly is the problem with the phone?

  • How to open a URL without session ID and reuse the current browser session?

    Hi All,
    I have a question about HTMLDB 2.0
    How to open a URL without session ID and reuse the current browser session?
    That was the behaviour in HTMLDB 1.6 ...
    My usecase for this is the following:
    We have written an issue tracking application, which sends e-mail to the interested users, when something happens.
    In these email we've put a link to some page, with some parameters in the URL.
    The idea is for the user to be easy to click on the hyperlink and to see the details of the ticket.
    When the user clicks on such a link he is directed to a login screen (page 101) and he enters his Username and password, and is then forwarded to the details for the ticket.
    Then he receives another email (e.g. for another ticked). He clicks on the link and :
    a) in HTMLDB 1.6 he goes to the details as he didn't close his browser and session is remembered
    b) in HTMLDB 2.0 he is prompted to enter username, password with the username populated
    Please tell me how can I achieve the same behaviour in HTMLDB2.0 as it was in HTMLDB 1.6.
    I understand this change is somehow security related, althogh I don't understand how. If you can explain this either I would be very happy?
    Best regards,
    Mihail Daskalov

  • When I listen to music on Apple TV 2 my pictures from iPhoto come in, but always the same album (which I nevr asked for), always in random order and always in a different format. How can I control what is going on and choose the album myself.

    When I listen to music on Apple TV 2 my pictures from iPhoto come in aafter about ten minutes, but always the same album (which I never asked for), always in random order and always in a different format. How can I choose a different album myself and control the order and format?

    Thank you Winston for a helpful response and for reminding me of something which I found nearly a year ago and then lost (in my mind) because I did not use it. I am grateful for a correct answer but it still only achieves part of what I wanted.
    I can now choose my photos, decide how long they stay on screen and choose one of a variety of presentations. Two things I still can't do.
    One is to get it to play the photos in the chronological order in which I have carefully set them in an album; it still tends to be random and repetitive. The other is that I cannot get any of them them to saty on screen for more than about 20 seconds. I guess this is all due to the way Apple TV is constructed.
    But still thanks, nevertheless.
