I need to batch process images to 800x800px without cropping off any part of the images. Is this possible in photoshop?

I have tried processing these through Bridge and image processor, but can only limit either of the height or width to the 800px size. I need the final images to be 800x800px, and don't mind if they have a white border to achieve this.

thanks for that I've cracked it

I need to replace a color on my image with a specific color from another part of the image. How?!

I have spent over 2 hours trying to figure out how to replace a color on one part of my image with a specific color shown on another part of the image. So far I have been able to go to "Replace Color" on my Adobe Photoshop version, but it seems that I can only change the hue and brightness of the color that it currently is. I need to use a specific color so this does not help me. Does anyone know how to complete the task I am referring to?
Also, please keep in mind that I am using Adobe Photoshop 6.0, not a fancy cs version or anything. So it's pretty old school...
Any help/feedback is greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Hi brookehelene,
You might consider making a selection the object and using a color fill layer set to the color blend mode instead of replace color.
I used the same picture as kendallplant did and changed the color on the same flower by sampling the pink color from the flower to the right)
(click on the screenshots below for larger views)
1. Select>Color Range
   (i used color range because the dialog is somewhat similar to the replace color dialog, except one is making a selection instead of replacing a color)
   (there are many other ways to make the selection such as the magic wand, so if your more familar with the other selection tools you can use those instead to make your selection)
2. Use the eyedroppers and fuzziness slider in the color range dialog to make the selection of the object.
   (in the screenshot below the white areas are selected and black areas are not)
   (your selection probably won't be perfect, but you can paint on the layer mask to refine the selection)
3. After you press the okay in the color range dialog you'll see the selection (marching ants)
   At the bottom of the layers palette press the Create New Fill or Adjustment Layer icon
   to reveal a list and choose Solid Color.
   Then use the eyedropper to sample a color from your image and press ok.
   Change the Blend mode for the color fill layer to Color (top of the layers palette)
4. As you can see a lot has been selected besides the flower.
    To refine the areas of color, paint on the layer mask with the paintbrush tool.
    Use white to add the color or black to subtract the color
    You can press the D key on the keyboard to get the default colors (black and white) in the toolbox
    and press the X key to switch between the two when painting on the layer mask.
Even though the above takes longer you can easily change the color or modify the areas that you want to change the color on.
To change the color you can double click on the color fill icon in the layers panel.
You can also use other layer blend modes besides color such as hue, so you might try some of the others and see what they do.

Illustrator is chopping off a part of my image when exporting

Okay so I have an image I created on a canvas that is larger than the image. When I export the image as a png, I get the image without any of the white space there was surrounding in illustrator and a very small part of the image is actually chopped off ... Is there anyway I can get illustrator to export the entire canvas or at least not chop off a part of the image if it is going to auto-crop?
Thanks

Add a rectangle the size of your artboard, or at least larger than the rest of the artwork, fill it with white but no stroke and send it behind the rest of the artwork. Save and export. The result should be the size of the white background.
Not a good solution if you want the background transparent. In that case, put a stroke around the rectangle but no fill. Then, upon export, open it in Photoshop and crop out the stroke around the outside. If you are using some other program to manipulate it, you should be able to crop out the stroke there as well.

How do I get original shape of photos. Mine have all changed to square , losing part of the image. Infuriating!

My photo library has changed the shape of all my images to square meaning I have lost part of the image. How do I revert all the images to their original shape? Very annoying!

All the images are now square with rounded corners, very "arty" but substantil parts of the image is lost as all my photos are A shape ie they are normal photo negative shape. Ther seems to be no tool on the latest iPhoto to make the change back to originals. I have nearly 1000 photos so changing them back one by on is not practical

My Photoshop CS 5 has some strange actions when I copy a portion of a photo using the clone stamp to transfer to another part of the image. It carries the entire layer (not just the stamps selection) across the screen and I cannot place it where I need to. It appears as if I selected the entire layer on purpose (which I did not)
The below items appeared when I opened Photoshop CS 5:
“Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver and has temporarily disabled G & U enhancements. Check the video card malfunctions website for latest software. GPU enhancements can be enabled in the performance panel of preferences.”
(I believe this started after the automatically updated Windows was applied. It was coincident with the before mentioned problem . . . but I don’t really know if it had anything to do with it. )

For the Clone Stamp problem, check the Clone Source panel and Clipped is probably unchecked.
If so, check Clipped and see if that makes a difference.
(Window>Clone Source)
As to the video card problem:
Which version of windows are you using?
What is the make and model of your graphics card?
Do you know which update windows installed?

You should get your keyboard checked as it's repeating on a lot of keys and makes you look silly.
There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

The on off button no longer works on my iPhone 4s. If I update my iOS will my phone turn itself off as part of the process? If it does I won't be able to turn it back on so I need to know but can't remember from last time!!!

Will my iPhone 4s turn off as part of the process of updating my iOS? The on/off button on my iphone doesn't work so I can't allow my phone to run out of battery or turn off because I will not be able to turn it back on.

Ok here is a nuance
Try it - when your phone locks
Insert the charging cord which is connected to a power source on the other end - wait about a minute - and then take it out
The screen will "wake up"
That is always your way out
I use assistive touch as well to lessen the wear and tear on my home button
Sleep mode is what your phone does when you are asleep

InDesign only showing part of the image

I'm doing a job for a client in InDesign CS5. I have not worked in CS5 before, so don't know if this is a bug or if I'm doing something wrong.
It seems to happen randomly and I have checked the preferences and tried using different settings for the Display Performance. I've even tried viewing the job with Overprint Preview switched on.
When placing images only a part of the image shows. When I output to PDF or Print the file then the entire image shows. This makes it very hard to do layouts, especially in cases where I need to crop an image.
In InDesign it looks like this:
When I output to PDF (this is a low res output, just to demonstrate my point) the entire image shows:

If I understand things correctly, you're placing client-supplied images into a new InDesign file that you're creating, so the only part of the workflow that you haven't created is the graphics. This logically leaves the container file innocent.
The question becomes "what's up with either the hardware or the graphics?" If the problem persists with the same graphic files and a new container file on a different user account on the same computer, it's possible that hardware is the villain. If it doesn't persist on a different computer, it's likely the hardware. If it does persist on a different computer, in a new container file, it's likely something in the graphics files.
It's not clear if the graphics card in your iMac is one of the models whose video RAM is "dedicated," that is, it doesn't share video RAM with the main RAM, or if it does share VRAM. If it shares RAM, it's possible that 4GB isn't sufficient to display all the open applications and their demands. If this is the cause, it's a hardware issue (insufficient RAM.)
Because the graphics print and convert to PDF without the problem, it would seem that the graphics are innocent, but perhaps something in the processing of these outputs causes the problem to disappear. For example, perhaps there's some flattening involved. Perhaps there's a clipping path or channel mask of some kind involved that affects the InDesign display? (Just fishing.)
Have you tried opening the graphics in their creating application and saving them to new names? Any difference in the behavior when those graphics are freshly-placed in InDesign, or when their links are updated?
Have you tried placing PDFs of the graphics? If they appear properly, can you crop them to achieve your requirements and hope the problem goes away after the deadline passes<G>?

Is it possible to work only on a small part of the image in FCP ?

Hello,
I"m working on a DV film that I have made this winter, but on the original film, the image (video) is a lot darker on both top corners (I have some problems with my camera when I use it outside during the winter).
Is there any way to work only on a part of the image with a filter, instead of working on the whole image. I would like to work on thoses 2 darker spot without touching the rest of the image.
Thanks

What you need to do is color correct just those two portions of the image. In a DaVinci and Final Touch this is called using "power windows." Now, you can do this one of two ways.
1) Layer the same clip on the timeline 3 times. V1, V2 and V3. Same start and end time on all clips. Now, use the 4-point garbage matte on the clips on the upper layers to isolate those sections and then apply the 3-way color corrector to brighten the images.
2) Colorista by Red Giant Software (www.redgiantsoftware.com) is a $200 color correction filter that allows you to layer color correction and isolate specific areas...using POWER WINDOWS in effect.

Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

It wants 001, 002etc. If I try to start 001 lightroom changes it to 1, 2 ... 10,11 etc. How can I export and rename starting with 001?

The projector may actually be processing a 3 digit number in numerical sequence. Have you tried your export/collection in order sequence starting with 101? Assuming you have fewer than 899 images you should be OK. (I had to fiddle with export sequence for a display frame which used the file date and time for sequence!)

The error that I am getting is this "Time Machine can't use the disk image because it can't be written to." Any ideas on the fix for this?

The error that I am getting is this "Time Machine can't use the disk image because it can't be written to." Any ideas on the fix for this? When I go to the Time Capsule my Macbook Pro shows that it is locked, I think I did something wrong, but can't figure how to unlock it to see if that fixes it.

As far as we know, Time Machine cannot write to a disk image. It needs to write directly to the Time Capsule disk.

I need to batch process images to 800x800px without cropping off any part of the images. Is this possible in photoshop?
