Separating socialmedia icons in photoshop

Hi, I'm still a novice with Photoshop and Illustrator. I am trying to break up one of those sets of social media icons and create a file with just the icons I need. Right now I just need them for print. I'm sure this is a very simple thing to do but I somehow don't seem to be able to accomplish that. I would be eternally grateful if someone could give me instructions on how to accomplish that. Many thanks in advance! PS: I'm using CS6.

Use the Image Slice Tool (it looks like a knife).

  • Creating icons in photoshop elements8

    Could someone tell me how to create an icon in photoshop elements 8. I'm sure it must be possible.

    The file format ico is not one of the choices in Elements however plug-ins can be found which are said to work with Elements as well as CS5.
    Google “free ico photoshop”
    The alternative is to select your item in elements using the quick selection tool and press Ctrl+J to place it on to a transparent background.
    Resize it (no more than 250 x 250 for an icon) delete the background copy and hit save for web. Select PNG-24 and save. If you place it on the desktop or a web page the background will show through however you will get an hard edge.

  • How To Edit Icons In Photoshop CS5 ?

    I go through this everytime I have to reinstall an OS, after installing all my programs I'm assigning my custom icons and inevitably I find one I want to tweak, I go to open it in Photoshop and... nothing. Then I spend an hour on Google looking for that one article that describes where to get the .ICO plugin and how to install it on a 64 bit system. Well I can't seem to find "that" article, my daughter is driving me bonkers, and I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. I need to edit this icon and Photoshop isn't playing nice, any help would be appreciated.
    OS:  Windows 7 Home Premium x64
    Version: Photoshop CS5

    add this plug in to photoshop.

    Ico extension will appear as a saveable file assuming that you are 8 bit and 256x256.

  • Clicking JPEG icon launches Photoshop but doesn't open file

    I run an IMAC Power PC G5 with Tiger 4.11 and recently did a system "archive and install". My JPEG files can only be opened within PhotoshopCS with Command+O. Double clicking an icon from the finder launches Photoshop but does not open the file. Neither does dragging icon on to application icon in the dock.
    I ran the disk utility to verify and repair preferences and repair disk.
    I reset "Launch Services". Then, I trashed "Adobe Photoshop CS Settings" and relaunched the program -- no change.
    Other files (ai, pdf, etc.) open fine. I'm only having trouble with PhotoshopCS.

  • Changing size of tool bars & icons in Photoshop Elements 10

    Was using Photoshop Elements 10 on my windows vista with no problems. Just got a new computer with Windows 7 and moved Elements 10 with no installation error messages.
    Just tried to edit some pictures and all the tool bars and icons are so tiny - extremely hard to read. Tried adjusting the text size to 150% in control panel but it did not change anything in Elements.
    Is there a setting that can be readjusted - do I need to uninstall and reinstall with some setting tweaks??
    Please help!!!!

    You need to use the default, 100% screen font size in Windows to prevent problems like tool cursors and menu bars not displaying correctly.
    There's no way to adjust PSE's font size or icon size.

  • How do I change the size of file menu's and tool icons in Photoshop' opening page.

    How do I increase or change the size of file menu's and tool icons on the opening page/worksheet of Photoshop? The File Menu drop down commands read properly at a comfortable size. I am not sure how I accomplished this, but everything I have tried has no effect on the other page items.

    Hello, you can change most of Photoshop's interface text by going to preferences>interface>UI font size.
    For the size of the top menus and the whole interface, there is no function to do that for the moment. I suggest to vote on this thread: http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/problem_with_hi_res_monitors

  • Icon-making: Photoshop + Illustrator?

    I have Design Premium CS5 (soon to have CS6) and want to know whether, among InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop, do we have everything we need to make icons, cross-platform, all the sizes that might be needed and into a delivery form that any platform can utilize?
    I know that I can create icons with Illustrator and Photoshop; I'm really inquiring here about the post-creation delivery and cross-platform compatibility of the creative product in a form that others can use as icons.
    thank you!

    I guess that depends on if you have a way to save to the correct formats. On windows an icon can be in the form of an ico, exe or dll. The latter two usually are created with an app that can compile code like visual studio. But a google search may provide a free app. Downloads.com is usually a good place to look. that can convert to at least ico format.
    At this point none of the Adobe apps are capable of exporting to any of the formats that I mentioned. but they all can export as a png, tiff or jpg which most 3rd party apps can read.
    I never tried porting from Mac to Windows or visa-versa, but I do believe some formats like tiff do have to be told which platform your file will be living on. Though someone else will have to confirm or deny that.

  • Can I enlarge the text and/or icons in Photoshop CS5 or Bridge CS5?

    My sight is poo rand I'd like to make the text and icons larger in Photoshop and Bridge CS5.  Can it be done?  I have a 27" monitor. 

    That is a problem then.  I can adjust my text sizes in the palette titles, menus, title bars etc. in windows and it has had the desired effect in CS and CC.  There is a problem with the text size in CC 2014 however that many are experiencing including myself.  I still use CC most of the time because of the bug.  Although I'm running 8.1, adjusting the text size in 8.0 and 7 worked just the same with renditions of Photoshop prior to 2014.
    Good luck.

  • Icons in photoshop and illustrator are too small to work

    I have a samsung ativ book with high screen resolution (3200x1800). when I want to work with ps or ai their icons become extremly small. (the icons in indesign have a good size!) is there a possiblity to scale the icons up? I already turned up the screen resolution - but strangly that didn't change the size of the icons. what can I do? and why is there a differnce between ps, illustrator and indesign?

    Try the Photoshop CC 2014 Preference experimental section 2X UI option

  • Missing icons from Photoshop CS6

    I don't know if anyone has run into this problem, but there's a discussion going on about it in the Adobe Photoshop forums. Taking it here to see if it's an OS problem or a Photoshop problem.
    When saving a file from Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended, file icons will not be saved with any format (forget about the alpha channel docs) - png, tif, jpg, psd, etc. I booted from my Lion Installer flash drive, repaired permissions and disk and some icon previews reappeared. Some didn't. No generic icon or anything. My Photoshop prefs are set to save a preview on the icons, as are with the 3 other Mac users who have reported the same problem.
    Has anyone else run into this problem? Does anyone have a solution. Adobe seems to be pointing the finger at Apple but, I have to admit, employees at Adobe seem stymied as well.
    Thanks,
    Clinton

    Ok, this is going to sound dumb, but, I found a work-around (at least on my local mac) for the missing icons & previews.
    The bad: I am having is when I save a CS6 .PSD, .TIF, .JPG, .ETC files, I get no icons or previews in finder...
    The good: if I rename the file inside a search results window, then a preview & icon is genererated giving me a glimse of what the file contents are.
    The bad: the new preview only shows up in the search results window, if I open the enclosing folder, the new preview is gone... where the renaming thing doesn't do anything with the preview or icon...
    The sad face: Apple? Adobe? Anyone?
    My first copy of PhotoShop was a beta of 1.0 that I got from Nikon way back in the "oh no you can't do that on a Mac" days and have been using Apple products before that... I have never seen such a blant UI issue that has gone on for so long without a fix. Shame, shame, shame...

  • No preview icon with photoshop cs2

    all of a sudden 1 of our G5's isn't making previews when we save psd files(cs2), the file doesn't have any sort of masks and the preferences are same on all 3 macs...i've rebooted, repaired permissions....my next step might be to reset the photoshop preferences but i don't want to lose my other settings.........everyone on the adobe forums thinks it's the OS and not cs2 that's causing the problem.....the only difference is the wacom tablet on that mac...

    Hi,
    Whenever I have problems with icons it's generally a Finder prefs issue. Would you feel happier trashing your Finder prefs before your Adobe CS2 prefs? They're here: /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist.
    Hope that helps. Good luck.
