Resizing and placing images CS6 Photoshop

Hi -
I am having trouble, just recently, placing and resizing image layers. The option to "place" an image from the file menu is no longer available and instead there are two - "Place Embedded" and "Place Linked". However, the images are not resizable after you size them initially. After that you can only access the sizing through the drop down menu at the top of the screen. Before I had the ability to select the layer and the corner points to resize use to come up. Have there been changes at all to CS6?
Also, I had my file window close down when trying to select new image files to place and has never done that before.
Running a new 15" MacBook Pro. 
Thanks,
Bryan

From what I saw of the video it was not showing the whole story the broken link part of the story was missing. How it works and what can be done if you can not resolve the broken link.
Where some have a use for Place linked I prefer to have embedded objects. For I want collages that may use the same original images to be independent from each other. Fortunately while the old interface menu File>Place no longer exists. Old scriptlistener code for  menu File>Place still places in images in Photoshop CC 14.2 and they seem to be embedded smart objects for opening the smart object with a double click winds up opening files copied by Photoshop in the user ID local temp space. So my old collage populating scripts still work. So I do not need to add code toe test if the users is using Photoshop CC 14.2 or newer and have two place versions  menu File>Place and menu File Place Embedded....

  • Resize and crop images to a specific width and height

    Hi,
    I want to convert images to thumbnails with a 'standard' format - I need all images to have the same width and height.
    So I need to resize and then crop the images. Is this possibe with JAI? Are there other libraries which can do this better?
    I've read about ImageMagick - are the Java interfaces to ImageMagick good?

  • What's best: placing images in Photoshop or InDesign?

    Hi guys
    Since I hear different things about creating for example posters etc. is this my question: What do you think is best to do when designing a poster or flyer (or whatever) with a nice background, bursh effects, pictures and text?
    I do it like this right now:
    Create the background in Photoshop
    place the background.psd in InDesign
    add the adjusted images of the artists etc. in InDesign
    add text in InDesign
    Save as PDF
    Some say creating the whole poster or design in Photoshop (even cutting out the pictures of the artists and rasterizing them) is better than placing each of them separately in InDesign?
    Anyone who has a good website or explanation for me to answer my question? Tips and tricks are welcome!
    Thanks!

    If the background is the same behind all images then you better do it in Photoshop because the file size of the background itself  when flatten will be similar with or without all images added on top of it. Other reasons that you may choose to do it as separate images is if you want the different images with different resolutions, for example if the background is some blurry clouds or some abstract gradients you don't really need to be very high resolution and if the images on top have some fine details you may decide to have them with higher resolution. The other consideration is if you want more flexibility with the composition in inDesign in case of eventual changes. So, it all depends on different things. The text you should do in inDesign.

  • Copy and Paste Images from Photoshop

    I can INSERT psd, jpg, (any) image files into Dreamweaver. I
    can COPY text from Word or Internet. I can COPY images off of
    Internet...
    ...but I can NOT copy from Photoshop (jpg or psd) into
    Dreamweaver. Simply does not copy. Paste is not an option. Grayed
    out. Hmmm. Any ideas?

    @Michael Fesser
    I expect that upon entering Ctrl+V or Paste at an insertion
    point in Dreamweaver, to be greeted with the "Optimize for Web
    & Devices" dialogue box, after which I input the appropriate
    settings (a jpg, gif, or png file is created), the image would
    appear in the document just as though I inserted it via myriad
    other conventional methods.
    I'm taking the Lynda tutorial (Dreamweaver CS4 Essentials)
    and following along EXACTLY, and am unable to recreate the copy and
    paste from Photoshop.
    Also, see this Adobe Dreamweaver Help & Support Tutorial
    http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/dreamweaver/articles/lrvid4043_dw.html
    Go down about halfway to: Cutting and Pasting from Photoshop
    into Dreamweaver
    I cannot recreate what is shown here either.
    @toastieo
    Yes, the Save For Web is how I've done things all along. Now
    I'm taunted with the prospect of doing a quick edit and insert with
    copy & paste, and it doesn't work for me! I guess I can live
    without it, but I would have rather been blissful in my ignorance
    of the possibility!

  • Have Adobe Photoshop 2014 and Adobe Bridge 2014 and just uninstalled CS6 Photoshop which also removed Bridge. Have an iMac with Mavericks Os X and downloaded DNG Converter V8.6. When connecting SD card in card reader it doesn't open up in Bridge Photo Dow

    Please any assistance would be appreciated thanks. The Photo Downloader doesn't open up automatically but it did when CS6 was still on my system.

  • CS6 photoshop, mavericks, and "error 1"

    I recently updated my Mac to Mavericks and now my CS6 photoshop won't work. I get an "error 1" message.
    Is there a fix for this?
    I recently (after i found that CS6 wouldn't work with Mavericks) joined Adobe CC, but I can only afford After Effects, and seeing as I already have Photoshop CS6, I was hoping to not have to spend an arm and a leg once again.
    Please help me fix this.

    First I would reset preferences.  Start PS and immediately hold down option/cmd/shift keys.  If fast enough you will get a reset window.
    Another possibiliy is that you did not accept the defalut install and/or moved files elsewhere.

  • After CS6beta install, how to I tell CS5 bridge to open images in Photoshop CS5?

    I am not ready to do all of my work in CS6 now, I am just trying to learn the interface.  But now I cannot opening anything through bridge or windows explorer using Photoshop CS5 at all.  The only way that I can open any image file in CS5 is to do it directly from Photoshop in the file open menu.  How can I set Bridge CS5 to at least have Photoshop CS5 as an option, if not the default?

    Open Photoshop CS5, and launch Bridge from there (Ctrl Alt o) That will open Bridge CS5, and load images into Photoshop CS5.

  • Mini bridge in CS6 Photoshop displaying grey thumbnails

    Hello,
    I"m on a MAC platform and working with CS6 Photoshop with minibridge (thumbnails preview at the bottom). When I preview the images, the thumbnails are all grey.
    Does anyone has an answer to switch back to normal view.
    Thanks!
    sntm

    Hello,
    Thank you for replying to this discussion. The grey  thumbnail preview occurs only in minibridge when I launched Photoshop CS6, not the case with the regular bridge. I can preview thumbnails with images in the regular bridge. Nonetheless, I've tried purging cache but to no avail, grey thumbnails still displaying in the mini bridge.
    Thanks,

  • Problem with photoshop automatically resizing placed images

    Hi,
    I have PS6. I have images that are 144x100 px. When I use file>place ps resizes the image to 108x75. I can't figure out how to make ps quit resizing my pictures. Anybody know?
    Thanks

    When Pasting, Dragging, copying and placing an image Photoshop will copy all of the image being duplicated original pixels to preserve the image pixel quality the image quality.  If the receiving document has a different DPI resolution the image may look a different size in the  receiving documents because of the number of pixels added to the document that has a lower or higher dpi resolution.  If the image is being placed in if the image pixels exceeds the receiving documents canvas size. Photoshop may scale the smart object layer to fit within the canvas that depends on the users Photoshop's preference.  All of the images original pixels are still there in the embedded object.   In my Photoshop Collage Scripts  I always transform all placed images to 100% size  incase Photoshop scaled the placed image.  For you can not get the scale percent Photoshop used.  Once I know I have the image at 100% size I can use the layer bounds to get the actual number of pixels there are in the placed image.  Once I know that I can calculate the scale I need to use to resize the image to fit the area being populated in the collage template.   Once resized I center it into place and mask off any excess image pixels.

  • When I open images in Photoshop CS6 they are completely blown out and color  posterzation like appea

    When I open my images in Photoshop CS6 they appear considerably blown out - none of the foreground has color and detail seen here-but you can see a posterize like appearancin the sky. The same thing is happening in Lightroom 5.

    The work files are tiffs 16 bit - anything that opens in photoshop has the
    same look -jpg,psd etc. My images are printed as digital C print by a lab.
    I haven't intentionally changed anything since yesterday when I was editing
    images. The appearance is the same in Lightroom where my digital image are
    stored. I also have scanned film image that open in adobe camera raw.So
    whatever is happening occurs both in Photoshop and lightroom.
    You suggest a monitor setting, worth exploring, but could a monitor issue
    affect only photoshop/lightroom doc.
    Thanks to PhotoRoy

  • When I have resized and saved an image in Photoshop (CS, version 8.0 for Mac) using image size, why is it so large when I open it in preview or another image viewer? Has it actually saved according to the size I specified?

    When I have resized and saved an image in Photoshop (CS, version 8.0 for Mac) using image size, why is it so large when I open it in preview or another image viewer? Has it actually saved according to the size I specified?

    You want to view the image at the Print Size, which represents the size that shows in the Image>Resize Dialog.
    View>Print Size
    Since screen resolution is almost always lower that the print resolution (somewhere between 72 and 96 usually), images will always look bigger on the screen, unless you view them at print size.
    (apple Retina displays have a much higher resolution than normal screens, closer to the average print size resolution)
