BlakesDesigns Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 I'm playing with my business logo for a shirt that I'm making and ran into something weird. Here is the original image: I selected the black stroke outlining the star and applied a pencil sketch. No matter what I make the values for range and pencil tip size, some areas are solid black. This is what I get. Does anyone know what is causing this? If this should have been in bug reports, I apologize. I figured that would be for program crashes and hangups. Thanks for any help.

Myrddin Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Is your image merged/flattened? Because the radial blurs you have used have also changed after the application of the effect. If you could extract the star and replace onto its own individual layer, then apply the effect, that might work. Give it a go, you can't lose anything with trying.

BlakesDesigns Posted April 6, 2008 Author Share Posted April 6, 2008 That's odd. I took the same star and took out the stuff inside so it was just an outline. It turned out fine with pencil sketch. It's like the black part inside was affecting it even though it wasn't selected with the magic wand.

Lutharia Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Yeah the inside affects the border in the same spots as you with me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlakesDesigns Posted April 6, 2008 Author Share Posted April 6, 2008 Thanks for testing it out. I guess I can just put the effect on a regular star and then place that on top of the original.

Lutharia Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 No problem, anything to help and yes that sounds like a good idea it should work now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadJik Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Thanks for testing it out. I guess I can just put the effect on a regular star and then place that on top of the original. Some plugins use the whole image to calculate the effect, even for a selection. So the good advice is to copy/paste the selection to a new layer and apply the effect on it separatly...
