Photo Effect in Photoshop

Hello I use Instant Lomo (from Instant Lomo - Apply a lomo effect to your photos ) to get a Lomo effect on my photos. Are there any commercial or free lomo plugins for Photoshop?

Use a levels adjustment, bring the output whitepoint way down.

Distressed Photo Effect

Can anyone give any pointers on how I might get this Distressed Photo Effect in Photoshop?

Generally this is done by having a texture layer on top of the image. So you might have a picture of some fabric. Convert that image to black & white and put it on a layer above your image, then change the blend mode to something like Overlay.

I have a sudden export to plug-in problem as well as a Photo-Edit-in-Photoshop Error

I just changed Macs and migrated all of my old data to the new iMac (running OS X 10.9.2). Applications and files. I keep all my photo files on external Iomega drives, however. I plugged those back in and Lightroom 5.2 recognizes them. I can work with them, edit, etc within Lightroom. No problems.
But I can't seem to export them to some of the plug-ins now or Photo-Edit in-Photoshop. For example, I tried to export out via (File-Plug-in Extras-Perfect Effects 8) and get this message: "AgNegative:renderToFile: <AgErrorID>dng_error_write_file</AgErrorID>"
Another example: Trying to edit the photo via (Photo-Edit in-Adobe Photoshop Elements) gives me this message: "Lightroom was unable to prepare the selected file at /Volumes/Photos-Videos /Pictures/2000/2000 Dean Scan 6.jpeg for editing. It will not be opened."
I've tried exporting Raw and jpgs and tiffs and get the same errors. It will, oddly enough, allow me to export to Photomatix Pro.
Any ideas? I'm stumped.
Thanks!

That would be great as tested further with a few files as not only have external drive backup I also use Backblaze remote service and just requested a few test files to be returned for uploading, which both worked fine.
It's seems to be the hard drive it's not recognising PS and LR CC
Will keep in touch if have any further thoughts

Screen effect in Photoshop.

Hi, everyone.
I am trying to create a screen effect with Photoshop but can't seem to find the right way to do it. The screen I wish to create will be used to cover photos and give the illusion they are seen through screen door or something similar. I assume the effect is created with black dots equally spaced on a transparent background and saved as a PNG image. I can't figure out how to do it and how to make this dot pattern repetitive to fill the hole are of my image (or transparent background).
Here is a link to the effect I wish to duplicate:
http://themes.themegoods.com/?theme=DK
Thank you in advance.

Hi, csuebele and JJMack,
Thanks to your help I have finally figured out how to do this.
I captured a screen shot of the effect I was trying to duplicate at the address I provided:
http://themes.themegoods.com/?theme=DK
After that I opened that screen capture and enlarged it in Photoshop until I could see the individual pixels. The pattern used for that screen is a 3 by 3 pixels square with only the upper left most pixel black while all others are transparent. So I created a pattern just like that: transparent background, 3 pixels by 3 pixels square and painted the upper left one black. After that I saved it as a pattern,
Now when I apply that pattern as an overlay to my images it gives me precisely the same effect on the link. Great ! It gives the images the same effect.
Thank you very much to both of you for your help with my question. I really appreciate it !

Has anyone seen this photo effect before and if so do you know the process involved?

I have seen this photo effect before and was wondering if anyone on the forum has any knowledge of how it produced in Photoshop. I am sure Poster Edges has something to do with it but I can not seem to replicate the effect.

Thanks I will check.... only reference I have found is under LED Effect but no Tuts, Thanks again I will let you know if I find anything. Really a cool visual effect.

Elements 7 tint black and white action in photo effects palette

I have somehow deleted my tint black and white photo effects atn file. Can someone with PSE 7 copy their tint black and white.atn file and send to me. I have the png and thumbnail files, but would like to get the .atn file without re downloading my software. The action is in the photo effect palatte. Will be very much appreciated. Debbie

If Photoshop manages color, you need to pick the correct profile for the printer/paper. The profile will be called something like e.g. <printer name> Epson Premium Glossy, if that's the paper you're using.

Installing new actions where is photo creations/photo effects folder?

Hi,
I've purchased a new Windows 7 32 bit OS, installed PSE7 and now trying to install my favorite "actions" but cannot locate the appropriate folder to drop them into! Show Hidden files and folders is activated. Also not showing is the Mediadatabase.db3 folder. Have also tried copying into the search bar the approriate file string but still no luck. Have searched the forums to see if someone else has had this issue but apparently not.
Hope someone can help.
Cheers,

Hi there,
The path to install the action is:
Start Menu
Computer
Local Disk (C:) (This could possibly be a different letter, but is usually C and most likely will be your computer’s root directory.)
ProgramData (If you don’t see this, it’s probably hidden. Go to Start/Control Panel/Appearance and Personalization/Folder Options/Show Hidden Files and Folders and activate the radio button next to Show Hidden Files & Folders)
Adobe
Photoshop Elements
7.0
Photo Creations
Photo Effects
Mediadatabase is in 7.0/Locale/en_us.
If you need more help, detailed instructions are available on my website. The method for PSE 7 is exactly the same for PSE 8, just use the folder appropriate for your version.

Can anyone help me find my lost layer styles and photo effects in the Effects Panel?

I am using the trial version of Photoshop Elements 9. I downloaded and tried to install a glitter style. When I went back to my workspace I had no layer styles or photo effects in the Effects panel....not one. The filters are the only ones there now. What have I done?

Quit the editor, then go to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\9.0\Locale\en_US (or your location) and delete mediaDatabase.db3. When you restart the editor, give it time to rebuild the panel contents before you try to use PSE.

Deleted Photo Effect Permanently

I am new to Adobe Photoshop Elements 7. In photo effects of edit mode, I clicked on "delete effect permanently" on color fade center thinking that I was deleting effect on that photo only. I'm afraid that I've deleted theeffect permanently for future editing. Can I recover this effect?

You'll need to uninstall and reinstall, I'm afraid.

Can't Download Photos to Adobe Photoshop Elements after iPhone Upgrade

Howdy, I have been using Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 with my iPhone ever since I bought my iPhone 3G when they came out and have never had any trouble. Whenever I synced my phone and there were new photos on it, Photoshop Elements would start it's photo downloader program and let me download the pics from my phone and put them in the organizer. Then it would let me delete them.
But this weekend I took a bunch of photos and now Photoshop Elements startes up during the sync as usual, but before it lets me download any pictures I get a message from Photoshop Elements saying "Downloader needs to close" (or something like that) and I never get the chance to download the pictures. The only way I have to get the pictures off my phone right now is to mail them as attachments.
A few days ago I upgraded to the 2.2 iPhone software and I was wondering if this might be the source of the problem. Has anyone else heard of any problems like this?

I'm having the same problem with Elements 6.0. The downloader starts up and I can see the first few pictures in the downloader before the error message comes up and the downloader must shut down. The only way to get pictures off the phone is through Win Explorer. But, when you try to remove the pics off the phone (i.e. move or delete) the phone reboots. The only way to remove the pics is one at a time on the phone itself.
It is extremely frustrating that Apple has created a decent way to sync music and video, but no iTunes way to handle pictures. Honestly I amazed that Apple has worked so hard to be the standard for music, etc. that they just leave it to the consumer to figure out the picture stuff. Come on Apple.

I need your help with a decision to use iPhoto. I have been a PC user since the mid 1980’s and more recently have used ACDSee to manage my photo images and Photoshop to edit them. I have used ProShow Gold to create slideshows. I am comfortable with my own folder and file naming conventions. I currently have over 23,000 images of which around 60% are scans going back 75 years. Since I keep a copy of the originals, the storage requirements for over 46,000 images is huge. 180GB plus.
I now have a Macbook Pro and will add an iMac when the new models arrive. For my photos, I want to stay with Photoshop which also gives me the Bridge. The only obvious reason to use iPhoto is to take advantage of Faces and the link to iMovie to make slideshows. What am I missing and is using iPhoto worth the effort?
If I choose to use iPhoto, I am not certain whether I need to load the originals and the edited versions. I suspect that just the latter is sufficient. If I set PhotoShop as my external editor, I presume that iPhoto will keep track of all changes moving forward. However, over 23,000 images in iPhoto makes me twitchy and they are appear hidden within iPhoto. In the past, I have experienced syncing problems with, and database errors in, large databases. If I break up the images into a number of projects, I loose the value of Faces reaching back over time.
Some guidance and insight would be appreciated. I have a number of Faces questions which I will save for later.

Bridge and Photoshop is a common file-based management system. (Not sure why you'd have used ACDSEE as well as Bridge.) In any event, it's on the way out. You won't be using it in 5 years time.
Up to this the lack of processing power on your computer left no choice but to organise this way. But file based organisation is as sensible as organising a Shoe Warehouse based on the colour of the boxes. It's also ultimately data-destructive.
Modern systems are Database driven. Files are managed, Images imported, virtual versions, lossless processing and unlimited editing are the way forward.
For a Photographer Photoshop is overkill. It's an enormously powerful app, a staple of the Graphic Designers' trade. A Photographer uses maybe 15% to 20% of its capability.
Apps like iPhoto, Lightroom, Aperture are the way forward - for photographers. There's the 20% of Photoshop that shooters actually use, coupled with management and lossless processing. Pop over to the Aperture or Lightroom forums (on the Adobe site) and one comment shows up over and over again... "Since I started using Aperture/ Lightroom I hardly ever use Photoshop any more..." and if there is a job that these apps can do, then the (much) cheaper Elements will do it.
The change is not easy though, especially if you have a long-standing and well thought out filing system of your own. The first thing I would strongly advise is that you experiment before making any decisions. So I would create a Library, import 300 or 400 shots and play. You might as well do this in iPhoto to begin with - though if you’re a serious hobbyist or a Pro then you'll find yourself looking further afield pretty soon. iPhoto is good for the family snapper, taking shots at birthdays and sharing them with friends and family.
Next: If you're going to successfully use these apps you need to make a leap: Your files are not your Photos.
The illustration I use is as follows: In my iTunes Library I have a file called 'Let_it_Be_The_Beatles.mp3'. So what is that, exactly? It's not the song. The Beatles never wrote an mp3. They wrote a tune and lyrics. They recorded it and a copy of that recording is stored in the mp3 file. So the file is just a container for the recording. That container is designed in a specific way attuned to the characteristics and requirements of the data. Hence, mp3.
Similarly, that Jpeg is not your photo, it's a container designed to hold that kind of data. iPhoto is all about the data and not about the container. So, regardless of where you choose to store the file, iPhoto will manage the photo, edit the photo, add metadata to the Photo but never touch the file. If you choose to export - unless you specifically choose to export the original - iPhoto will export the Photo into a new container - a new file containing the photo.
When you process an image in iPhoto the file is never touched, instead your decisions are recorded in the database. When you view the image then the Master is presented with these decisions applied to it. That's why it's lossless. You can also have multiple versions and waste no disk space because they are all just listings in the database.
These apps replace the Finder (File Browser) for managing your Photos. They become the Go-To app for anything to do with your photos. They replace Bridge too as they become a front-end for Photoshop.
So, want to use a photo for something - Export it. Choose the format, size and quality you want and there it is. If you're emailing, uploading to websites then these apps have a "good enough for most things" version called the Preview - this will be missing some metadata.
So it's a big change from a file-based to Photo-based management, from editing files to processing Photos and it's worth thinking it through before you decide.

I do fine until I "Add the Layer Mask". When I go to Lens Blur afterward, the image is the same and it blurs the entire image. I followed this video exactly as it said. Anyone else having this problem?

Working with after effects in photoshop?

I want to edit some contents of the after effects of videos like clearning up skin or removing objects in photoshop from after effects - how would this get done? both ar cs5 and both ar 64bit

If you want to work on the frames of a movie in Photoshop, you have a few options. One is to render and export a composition from After Effects as an image sequence, and work on the frames as individual images in Photoshop. Another approach is tor ender and export the composition as a QuickTime movie and then import tha into Photoshop; this requires Photoshop Extended.
These options are covered in a bit more detail in "Working with After Effects and Photoshop".
