“Now is the time to use the Color Balance plug-in. I adjusted the image 10 points toward yellow.”
Is this a must for antiquing a picture? I am unable to d/l it. Is there another way around this?
Now it needs a vignette. Flatten the image. Then, add a new layer. Make a box around the edges in your new layer with the brush size set to around 20 pixels. Then Gaussian blur it so it has a very smooth, transparent look. I use a setting of 70.
Could anyone explain this part to me a little better. When I “flatten” an image, I am combing the original three layers? When I add this “new” layer, which is a square box if I’m not mistaking, I make a box around the edges how exactly? If someone could explain that part to me, it would be greatly appreciated. I am actually going to select the paint brush feature for this? And how would I locate the setting to adjust pixels. One again, any help for this newcomer would be appreciated.
