How to remove background colours in photoshop?

Hello everyone....I'm only just learning how to use the content-aware tool in photoshop cs5. This image had a picture of a girl in it, but I think I've been able to erase her using the content-aware tool, though you can still see a slight shadow. There is also a small area of red between the subject's chin and the top of his left arm. Can you please teach me how to erase the shadow as well as the small red area? I tried using the content-aware tool for that, but for some reason it didn't work. Thanks so much

Hello there..Thanks for your help. I've tried doing it both ways and I've actually managed to do it - shock! - but I think it was a
fluke because I can't do it again. The obstacle is how to change the background colour. I don't know quite how to do that. Could you please give me a step by step guide on what to do once i've selected the area with the lasoo tool? i know that i have to click on one of those two boxes at the bottom of the tools palette - set background or foreground colour - but i'm lost once the colour palette appears on the screen. thanks again!

Is there any way to change the background colour in Photoshop Elements 8?.

Is there any way to change the background colour in Photoshop Elements 8? There are two options offered in General Preferences, Appearance Options - Dark Grey or Light Grey - but even the Light Grey is much darker than that in Photoshop CS2. I would like to make the background much lighter. All advice will be appreciated.

Thanks for your comments.
I have seen that the background can be changed in PSE7 by using a slider in Preferences- General; I don't understand why Adobe didn't keep that facility.

Enhance<Adjust Color<Remove Color Cast
Look at image and try to figure out what should be white, gray,or black. Click that area with the color cast dropper. Below is a video showing how to use the color cast tool.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Roinm3J3GjI&feature=player_embedded
I think from your post that it is safe to assume that you used levels. Basically, you first click on something you know is white with the white dropper; then click on something you know is black with the black dropper; finally find something that is gray and click on it with the gray dropper. Note: You may want to go through and set target colors for the levels droppers to customize how they react. See the written tutorial links at the end of this post.
Levels is covered at about 5:15 of video in video linked below. Note: It's a Photoshop video. It works the same way in Elements.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLKc61tM5b4
The above video gives several methods. It is a Photoshop video but several of these methods can be used in Elements. Elements has a color cast tool that is not included in Photoshop so isn't covered in this. Disregard Match Color method and Curves method as Elements does not include these commands. (This tutorial also mentions using the fade command. Elements does not include this command. You can reduce the opacity of a duplicate layer on which you apply the variations command and use the layer's opacity to "fade" the result. If you go that route.)
Several Photoshop Elements videos on the subject are here:

Choose Filters (the live ones accessible via the Property
inspector [+])
and then Other. Select Convert to Alpha. Change the canvas
color to
whichever one you wish.
Alternatively, select the background with the Magic wand tool
and delete it.

How to change background colour?

Hi
I have an image with a statue and different background colours. I want to change the complete background colour around the statue in one colour for example white. I tried several times but it doesnt work. Do you have a suggestion?
Thx
Dom

Hi Dom,
You've asked about a technique that many beginner Photoshop users want to learn. The challenge is that this technique requires learning a few tools and skills before you start. I would recommend the following:
1. Learn about how to make selections. Here is an image with the blue background selected. Here's a video about making basic selections.
2. Learn about layers and masks and how they work. Below is the same image with the blue background hidden. This video teaches the basics about the Layers panel.
3. Create a new background layer to replace the old one. Below is the image with a new solid white background on the layer below the original statue layer.
Once you've learned about selections and layers, try following the technique Russell Brown uses in the video below to create a simple selection of the current background and hide it by using a layer mask. Once the old background color is hidden by the layer mask, the layer beneath is revealed and it replaces the old background.
Good luck with your project! I hope this helps.

How to remove background image in Theme Editor

Hi there,
In Theme Editor > [theme] > Portal Body there is the option for background colour as well as background image. I had a background image declared before and would like to remove it again. If i write "none" the theme won't save (script error). I can't find the reference to the image in the theme.zip either. Thanks four your help.

> Benjamin Houttuin
Thanks, Benjamin, I'm aware of that. But this solution is rather bad on performance. We run an FPN with our Intranet, xAPPS and BI. Now imagine all the background colors and background images loading one after the other before you can see the application. This happens regardles of whether they are empty or transparent. In IE it flickers and flackers about ten times and takes 10 seconds before you can carry on with your work. That's suboptimal.

How to insert background colour into text?

Hi,
I'm relatively new to Dreamweaver so I'm not sure how exactly to phrase this question. Within a div file on my HTML I have created I have a few links taking the user to another page. .
For the sake of clarity I have inserted an image to express what I am trying to say.
The background colour for my div is a chocolate brown. I was wondering if there was any way of creating a background for the text for each link within the div? So the text would have a background with a different colour?
I'm trying to create something that looks like this:
Does anyone know if this is possible to do? Do I have to create separate Div files within the main div file to do this?
Apologies for the lack of detail, I just don't know the technical words to show what I'm looking to do! Any tips or links to tutorials would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks for reading.

First, we need to examine the HTML code used to construct your menu. The modern approach is to use an unordered list like this:
<nav>
     <ul>
          <li><a href="#">Menu Item1</a></li>
          <li><a href="#">Menu Item2 </a></li>
          <li><a href="#">Menu Item3</a></li>
          <li><a href="#">Menu Item4</a></li>
          <li><a href="#">Menu Item5</a></li>
     </ul>
</nav>
Then style your navigation with CSS like this:
<style>
/**zero out margins & padding on everything**/
margin:0;
padding:0;
/**fix the CSS Box Model on % layouts**/
-moz-box-sizing:border-box;
-webkit-box-sizing:border-box;
box-sizing:border-box;
nav {
    width: 100%; /**adjust width as needed**/
    background-color: #960;
    padding: 30px;
nav ul {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0
nav li {
    width: 20%;
    list-style: none;
    font-size: 14px;
    float: left;
    text-align: center;
/**menu links**/
nav li a {
    display: block;
    text-decoration: none;
    margin-right: 6px;   /* space between links */
    width: auto; /* adjust as needed or use auto */
    padding: 6px;
    font-weight: bold;
    line-height: 2em;
    color: #FFF;
    background: orange;
/**menu style on mouse over**/
nav li:hover {
    color: #FFF;
    background: #1e5799;
/**clear floats after nav element**/
nav:after {
    clear: both;
    display: block;
    content: ' ' ;
/**END MENU STYLES**/
</style>

How to remove background hiss?

What options do I have for removing background noise/hiss in iMovie '09? I used the standard microphone of an HD camcorder and as you might guess there is a lot of ambient noise that I would like to try to remove.

Well, I answered my own question.
You cannot do this within iMovie. Instead you have to export the audio and then run it through another application which is what I did using Audacity. I exported the audio to a .wav file and imported into Audacity. With Audacity, you can sample a bit of audio where no one is speaking using the "Remove Noise..." filter and then apply that filter to a selected section of audio. There's lots of other things you can do with Audacity but all I needed was removing background his and amplifying a few other sections of audio where kids were speaking to softly. It worked great! Once finished with Audacity, I exported from Audacity back to a .wav file format. Then I imported that hiss-free audio track into iTunes which then made it available in iMovie. Before dragging the full hiss-free audio clip into my movie project I first muted the existing full-of-hiss audio track. Because the audio tracks were the same length, it all lined up perfectly.

How to Change background colour in the Arrange page

I find the LPX arrange page is generally rather too dark, is there a way of changing the background colour? I am sure L9 had this facility but cannot find it on LPX.

No, there (probably) isn't. You can only set the piano roll background lighter, but not the arrange background, unless this is mentioned somewhere in this thread about customizing the LP X color scheme:
