scarley Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Ok so I got one more question. Like I said in my other post, in my pictures there is "text" included, and I would like to colour the titles/ the words, even though the rest of the picture needs to be black and white. Is that possible and how do I do that? Thanks very much. scarley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonte Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 let me get this right: you want to color a section of a black&white picture (the text on it), and leave the rest as it is. select the text in question and use a color mask or something (evin the brush tool with a transparent color would work). personally i sugers you copy the text to a new layer on top before you do anything to it (you might need to aply some feather or something to it). ...then again, you could just write over it, if u can find the right font and size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarley Posted November 7, 2009 Author Share Posted November 7, 2009 Thank you very much. I think I now found a way to "transform" what I had imagined - or at least something that comes close to it. But how come I can not reset the "transparent alpha" tool in the colour window, once I used it? I don`t really like it that much, it just makes the colour look "spotty" (don`t know how to translate it). I`d rather choose a lower "tolerance" for filling in, so that the writing is still visual. What is the feather-tool for and where do I find it? Thank you again. scarley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarkut Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 (edited) scarley: Feather plugin. Part of Boltbait's plugin pack. ============================================= Transparent color? You might do better using the color at full opacity on its own transparent layer. The transparency can then be adjusted using Layer Properties. Layers Window ============================================= If you can post a link to the image you are working on you will get the best suggestions on what to try.
