Increasing saturation/color in one area

I have a photo , which is a close up, that i would like to increase the color or saturaion in just the blue of her eyes. the rest of the photo is fine the way it is. i would like her blue eyes to really pop off the page so to speak and i am not sure of how to go about doing this. any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
George

George,
1. Zoom way in on the eyes
2. Use lasso tool to select one eye
3. Hold down shift key to to select other eye. Don't stray on to the eyelids
4. Feather selection by 1-2 pixels
5. Bring up Hue/saturation adjustment layer
6. Click on colorize
7. Adjust the sliders to maximize blue effect
8. Can change opacity of this layer and blending mode.

How can i dynamically vary the color of one graph line

I was looking on the developer zone and noticed several people are looking for a way to change the color of one graph line. Simplest case I would like to know: a graph is running, then you press a button and from that point on the color of the graph changes, but doesnt change the old data line color. THis way the line will consist of different colors.
The property node changes the whole line, and the line is always just one color. It should be possible to make the line consist of different color sections, anyone know how?

The application is actually not as slow as it seemed, i had some settings set wrong (anti aliasing in plot, and some functions in advanced, when you right click on the graph)
Especially unchecking the anti-aliasing makes it much faster
Also, just plotting point and not a line, or alternatively, changing the interpolation makes it faster.
Anyway, the attached files do not rely on processor so much anymore, see for yourself

Legalities of color-and why are my RGB values inconsistent?

Hi there,
I have a client who is trying to trademark their logo and the RGB values. I have sent them the files and corresponding RGB values, but when they check the files in their mac Digital Color Meter they come up with different values. On my own computer, the values are consistent in the DCM and Photoshop, although I opened it on another computer and found that while the values were still correct when I open the files in Photoshop, the DCM values were incorrect there too.
Does anybody have any history with this? Should I just tell them to ignore their DCM and that Photoshop is correct, or am I doing something wrong with profiles or something? It wouldn't be such a big deal but for the legal implications behind it...
Thanks for any help!!

I was referring to "Scene Referred" CCchart Lab reference numbers derived from measurements taken of this chart from a spectrophotometer. You'll note the black patch is at L20 according to X-rite. The white patch is quite easy to attain L96 without clipping during exposure of the CCchart to build the profile from using DNG Profile Editor.
What's not easy to control during exposure is the contrast ratio recorded by the camera. Adjusting the middle slider in Levels or the Contrast slider in ACR will show just how much contrast affects hue and saturation viewed on a display. Reality doesn't behave this way.
Contrast/Luminance ratio's are disregarded or barely adjusted for in the DNG CCchart Wizard to come up with proper hue/saturation levels for each of the 18 color patches. The contrast adjusts required to get all 24 patches to match exactly (especially black at L20) makes the image not look right or follow a normal human visual response or perception.
You can adjust contrast in the image after applying the new profile to get a reasonably correct look but quite a few of the 24 patches go off the charts according to the X-rite reference Lab numbers. The whole reason for going by the Lab numbers in profiling a device like a DSLR in the first place is to maintain consistency image to image by using measured results. As you can see this is not possible to achieve in a photograph except maybe in a controlled studio environment, but it does work when trying to match single spot colors that aren't influenced by the surround effect that affects human perception inherent in a photographed scene. A pleasing photograph is not about accurate numbers.
A spectrophotometer is a static device that only reads and measures color wave lengths from color patches and converts them to Lab numbers. It's not a constantly adjusting device like our eyes which adapts to hue, saturation, color temp and contrast levels in any given scene.
I'm going to post three images of a CCchart exposed under a high noon sun that I used to build two different DNG profiles. The first is using ACR default DNG converted source image and doing a straight dual illuminant table profile according to instructions. They're screenshots that include Apple's DCM to show how the black patch changes to accommodate exact Lab numbers as opposed to achieving a pleasing look. You'll note the more the image is made to "pop" the less accurate the Lab readouts and appearance.

Deskjet 1010 over saturated colors

This is my first HP printer. I have had it only a few days and am very disappointed with prints from my photographs.
The prints have over saturated colors and are too warm, resulting in a dark, muddy appearance.
For mant years, I have used Canon printers that have allowed me to adjust color balance and density.
I was surprised to that these facilities are not available with HP software.
Is there any way I can get the print quality that I want?

Visited links in Google are not changing color. In Options Colors visited links are purple. Also, the "Allow pages to choose their own colors..." is checked

I have been using Firefox for many years. In the past year the Google page has stopped showing visited links in another color. Options are normal. Links should change to purple when visited.
This has been happening for a long time now. There have been several Firefox updates since then. Is it a problem with my system?

Does this happen with other visited links as well?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

I would like to change my back ground color in one frame for a logo that i am using I am able to change it on the canvas but not on the timeline?

Are you using FCPX? It doesn't have a canvas. Do you really mean one frame, like 1/30th of a second? Add a custom generator underneath the logo. Make it whatever color you want. Make it however short you want.

PShop 5.5 - using text tool, can't change color of one word...

Hi All,
I'm using the text tool and want to change the color of one word but when I select that word and click on the Color Picker box then select the color I want, the entire text changes to that color. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
I've got several paragraphs and want all the text except the one word to be black. This page is Layer 2 and has the 'T' next to it in the Layers palette.
Cany ideas?
Thanks,
Nancy

Bless your heart for being patient with XD. I've had a rather frustrating 'technology day' with my husband's laptop (using Vista) and uploading photos but I figured that out. On top of that, my sister had a few changes to make to her website and - unfortunately - most of the pages with loads of text are done with PhotoShop then converted to .jpg's. I know...I know. I'm trying to find the time to change those pages in DreamWeaver to table format instead of layer format...long story.
All that to say - thank you so much and I love your 'dag nabbit'...that's my kind of talk. I'm grateful for your help and it's ended my day on a better note! ;-)
Sounds like you're a teacher? Maybe you'll have advice for me with DreamWeaver.... ?
Thanks again,
Nancy

How to remove all colors but one, or perhaps two, w/ everything else B & W?

Hi! I have the latest Final Cut Studio and I'm trying to figure out how best to make everything black and white except for deep reds. I might light to add deep blues or "ripple of gold color" here and there, but the first step is understanding a good work flow for getting all but one color. Any suggestions? Much thanks!!!!!!

Hello, I have a similar question to a previous post about desaturating specific colors. I'm editing together live footage from multiple cameras for a Concert shoot and two of the four have black clothing showing up as a "purple-y red". How can I select only a specific range of colors in one locked area (So as not to affect the lights in the background which are displaying the proper red/purple colors) and adjust it to be more black without making the entire shot look overly colored/contrasted?
Sorry if this is easy but I'm new to Color and FCP wasn't much help w/ it's simple color correction effects.
Thanks!

Filter all colors but one

Can you filter all colors but one in iphoto? I have a picture and you like to show only, say, color red and the rest would be black and white. I have seen it in many pictures and wondered if you can do that in iphoto 9
or any of the IOS apps?
Thank you

Yes-almost yes. There's a $2 app on the iPhone that can almost do it. It's called Color Splash. It can select areas to remove the color from leaving color in the other areas. You can read about it at this MacWorld page: Five Apps That iPhone Photographers Love. Here's a photo my daughter took of her kids:
It's well worth the price IMO.
You can do the same with 3rd party image editors like Photoshop Elements for Mac.

Enabling WCCP and traffic flowing, increased CPU 10% with one site only.

Hello,
We are deploying a WAAS solution for a customer Datacenter and we are doing a pilot on WCCP redirection towards few 7341 WAAS boxes on the DC.
The redirecting platform is a couple of 7200's running 12.4(13) version - we are using WCCP GRE negotiated return and ingress with hash assignment.
for the moment we enabled one remote site with an inline WAE and are optimizing traffic across that connection. All remote sites except this one are being filtered out by the WCCP redirect-list.
At this moment we are a bit concerned due to two things:
- when traffic started being redirected on the 7200, (about 1,5 Mbps in/out for the pilot site= allowed traffic on redirected list), we saw a 10% CPU increase on the 7200. Having in mind that the redirecting list is denying a lot of traffic, I'm considering it to also add CPU% overhead to the processor usage.
The first question is - Does anybody have any experience on how can we expect the CPU to grow, while adding more sites? We can grow up to (theoretically) 1Gbps of traffic coming from remote sites.
The second question is - we have 4 x 7341 on the DC, but we are seeing quite uneven load distribution on them. We are using service 61 in on the LAN interface and service 62 in on WAN interface. From what I can gather the hashing across boxes is then made based on the LAN side IP address (that is the servers).
Would it be recommended to swap both services between interfaces (61 on WAN and 62 on LAN) so that the hashing is based on the WAN side IP address? what would be the downside of this?
I saw that from version 12.4(20)T on, software based platforms support L2 redirect and mask assignment. Would that be a recommended upgrade to make in order to easen up the CPU load on the 7200? Does anybody have any experience on WCCP with this particular config on 7200?
Thanks for any input!

An alternative to using the "Lookup" functionality in Network Utility is to run "nslookup" from the command prompt (or the shell prompt) using Terminal. Both the Network Utility and Terminal are found in the Utilities folder under Application.
While in Terminal, enter this:
nslookup statcounter.com
It should return something like this:
Note: nslookup is deprecated and may be removed from future releases.
Consider using the `dig' or `host' programs instead. Run nslookup with
the `-sil[ent]' option to prevent this message from appearing.
Server: 68.87.69.146
Address: 68.87.69.146#53
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: statcounter.com
Address: 66.98.186.36
Name: statcounter.com
Address: 66.98.134.100
The first portion of the output indicates the IP address of your DNS. The second portion indicates the IP address of statcounter.com.
You can also run "dig statcounter" while in Terminal. This provides the same output as the "Lookup" functionality in Network Utility.
If you are not getting the IP address of statcounter.com from running the nslookup command, the most likely reason is your DNS (or your ISP's DNS) does not contain information about statcounter.com.
Hope this helps.

I have 2 iPads both the sane except for case color. One connects to my home wifi fine, the other will not "join". It finds the wifi name and the little circle turning wheel just spins.

I have 2 iPads both the sane except for case color. One connects to my home wifi fine, the other will not "join". It finds the wifi name and the little circle turning wheel just spins. I have tried about ten different "fixes" none work.. Reboot, forget wifi, etc.
Unplugged wifi on and on for about an hour.
I have compared settings between the two and cannot see any difference.
Both iPads worked fine last week. One made a trip to MI and used cellular access just fine. Now that one still uses cellular OK, but refuses to "join" the wifi.
Too bad I can't attach a picture.
Anyone care to offer a unique workable solution I have not tried?
Thanks

Have you tried renewing the lease in the WiFi settings? Settings>WiFi>Your network name>Tap the blue arrow>Renew Lease. If you haven't tried that - try it first before reading the information about restoring the iOS software.
Follow the instructions in here. If you are unsure about anything - do not proceed. Post back with questions first.
iTunes: Restoring iOS software - Apple - Support
Make sure that you transfer all purchases, backup the iPad and sync with iTunes first. When you restore to factory settings, iTunes should ask if you want to backup first, but it will not hurt to initiate a backup on your won before you even start the restore process.

I'm trying to buy more storage on my iPad but when I get to the "buy" button, it has my old Apple ID and I can't go any farther. I've changed my Apple ID on all my devices, logged out, logged back in, rebooted, etc., but that one area still has old one.

You can't buy more storage on an iPad. You are referring to space on iCloud and that probably won't accomplish what you are trying to do.
