Making an image look like its on a canvas?
Hi guys,
I am using Photoshop CS5, I generally find it very good and love the features it gives me, i however am having trouble trying to achieve something but i dont know if it can be done,
I am going to be selling Canvas Prints and i dont know if theres anyway i can make a jpg image look like its on a canvas or even turn the image to a canvas design, this includes making it look 3d. The reason for doing this is it will save me having to manufacture every single image i have onto a canvas for a photo.
I hope somebody can help me
Regards
Lee
'Transform' can skew rectangular shapes to have perspective. Here's a loosely related tutorial or two...

in the tracing drop down menu, how come the custom is greyed out and can't be selected? It looks like its disabled!!
cc2014,
Have you selected an image?
Unless a good explanation appears, you may start onthe list below.
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

How do i make a jpeg flag look likes its waving
i have a jpeg of a specific flag that i am trying to make it a loop. whats does it take to make the jpeg look like its waving in the wind? The only thing i have successfully done is put a ripple dissolve across the whole thing and it looks like... well, i put a ripple effect on the flag. any advice?
Library > Filters > Distortion Filters > Wave is the one you want if working in Motion. From the User manual:
Wave
Distorts the object to simulate waves oscillating across it. The wave filter is not automatically animated, but you can animate the Offset parameter to animate the effect of waves causing the image to undulate.
Parameters in the Inspector
Amplitude: Sets the amplitude of the waves. Values range from 0 to 100.
Wavelength: Sets the length of the waves. Values range from 1 to 100.
Offset: Sets the offset of the wave, with values ranging from –500 to 500.
Vertical: Toggles whether the waves run vertically or horizontally.
Repeat Edges: Toggles whether or not the edges of the object are repeated.
Dashboard controls
The Dashboard contains the Amplitude, Wavelength, Offset, and Vertical controls. -
How do u make an image look like a bubble?
After cutting it in a circle, i need it to look like its on the surface of a bubble. I don't mean the Spherize filter. I want the entire cropped image to look curved like a bubble or a water droplet. Please help.
Assuming you have 3D capability you could try 3D > New Mesh from Layer > Mesh Preset > Sphere. This will wrap your image around an actual 3D sphere. You may need to experiment with cropping or enlarging your background area to get your desired results, and since it's 3D you can rotate it and adjust lighting and material attributes. If you want to alter the shape to, e.g. an egg or a falling drop of water, you could render and flatten your 3D sphere and then use the warp tool to adjust as desired.

My new iMac has recently had OSX Lion installed on it and now when I start the machine it looks like its updating something every time, and the wireless doesn't work. So I restart and everything is OK - until I have to start up again the next time - then I have to repeat this again! Any help appreciated.
I've been having the same issue, but have just discovered something on my own that hasn't been pointed out in any of the forums I've visited. In what I thought would be a vain attempt to help myself, I went to System Preferences, Users & Groups, and then clicked on Login Items. I discovered that one of the Items that was listed to open automatically upon login was iTunes Helper and that there was an exclamation point beside it indicating that it was incompatible. I simply deleted that item and now I don't have the situation you described and my wireless is connected. Hope this helps!

Advance warning - Mail worked fine.
I had fits with the last link I posted. At first it worked fine, then all of a sudden, it quit working. I now have iCloud - iCal syncing, but iCal is read only. Not a real big deal since you can log onto iCloud using Safari and post a new event.
I finally gave up on Address Book because it kept creating multiple contacts, which if you tried to merge or delete the multiple contacts, the contacts were deleted. It also worked at first and then stopped working as it should. -
How to convert a image layer to a text layer any idea? a image looks like a text in layers box
How to convert a image layer to a text layer any idea? a image looks like a text in layers box
You can't convert an image into a text layer. What you can do is clip an image to a text layer so that just the image layer shows up where there is text. Create a text layer, then above it put your image layer. Hold down the alt/opt key and click between the two layers to clip them.

I have windows 7 and have tried the troubleshooting steps but am still unable to connect to the itunes store yet my PC is connected to the internet, it just keeps looking like its trying to access the store
I have the same problem but the solution Wendyz99 did has not been successful for me. Part of the itunes store loads on the right side where the tabs for Quick Links and Top Charts are but the center section of the page is white. Also if I click on a song that is in the top chart area it will take me to the page but I'm not able to purchase the song or preview the song.
I feel I have tried all the solutions I can find on line and even had conversations with apple tech with no help.
I have down loaded the Autoruns program and in the winstock providers I have Bonjour and Microsoft Windows Live ID Namespace Provider. I have removed Windows Live and this still does not resolve the problem. I am at a complete loss. I am running windows 7, 32bit. Someone please help! -
My 27" iMac has just come back from the workshop after having a white screen issue repaired. I restored from my time machine and now the white screen is back and I am unable to access an recovery option. It looks like its no responding to the USB ke
Thanks for your reply! I must apologise for the quality of my post. I inadvertently posted it before it was corrected.
I am very disappointed with this iMac. It is only 18 months old and this will be the third visit to the workshop. I had expected more from Apple and from their repair agents. Luckily I have AppleCare. -

I'm having trouble texting from my IPAD 2. Most of the time it looks like its searching or I get a red exclamation point.
I was only able to send 2 texts. Help!iPads cant send regular texts - only through iMessage meaning that the other device will need to have iMessage too.
If you can't send a text that means the other person does not have iMessage and iMessage is only installed on iOS devices or OSX Lion -
Making a picture look like a canvas print
Hi
I run an online canvas print company and sometimes for new images we have available I want to create a photoshopped example of how it would look as a canvas print, rather than getting it actually printed and photographing it. I can do this manually but it takes ages so I wondered if there is an easier way, perhaps an action or some kind of plugin that can do it a lot quicker?
This page shows some examples of what I have done in photoshop http://www.fotoviva.co.uk/photos-on-canvas.asp
The best one is the Gallery Wrapped Canvas at the bottom, which shows the image wrapping around the frame - it looks quite real. Ideally it would be useful to be able to create them with and without the wrap to show customers the options they can have.
I tried to create a Photoshop action but the trouble is not all of the images we sell are the same size ratio ie. some are rectangular, some square and some panoramic in shape.
So is there an easy way to create these in Photoshop? I guess it's like making a 2D image into a 3D box in effect.
ThanksThe major 3D packages are overkill for this (in expense, and time to setup/render).
There is alot of software for this on the pc
This one actually has a mac version
http://www.boxshot3d.com/
In your search I would look for one that lets you wrap 1 bitmap image against the front and 4 sides of an extruded rectangle, to save you the time of making separate images for side panels(and you likely have slightly rounded edges on your canvas). I would try the boxshot3d as they appear to have a free trial.
