Picture “pops out” of the frame

This is an easy task that can have dramatic effects. A portion of the picture will “pop out” of the original frame and look as though it has “popped” onto your screen.

Save a copy of the original picture and work on a second copy, just in case you make mistakes.
Use any selection tool to cut out only the portion of the image you wish to have “pop out”.
Lift the image by using the Float Command and duplicate it onto its own layer.
Create a new layer in the frame for the photo. You can use textures, borders or nothing at all.

Place a picture into text

Placing a picture into text is a simple job that creates a word using the picture. The picture will be placed into the text.

Select the image you want and place it in a new layer with a solid background.
Set the word you want using the type input method of choice. Use a style with a large area so much of your picture can be seen.
Select the type so you can move it around.
Click on the picture layer to edit the picture.
Use the Float Command to pick up the picture inside your text.
The selection will start a new layer and fill with a copy of the picture.
Turn off the original layer with the picture and your text will be filled with the picture.

Remove the white background from an image

Many images end up having a white background included in the frame. For example, a logo that may be used on different documents will often be surrounded by a white square. When placing it on a white page this is not a problem. However, placing it on a colored page will show the white square behind it. For a more professional look, follow these steps to remove the unwanted background.

Start a new layer and create an object of the same shape as your picture. The shape must replicate that of your picture and will be used like a cookie-cutter to place over the picture.
Make sure your shape layer is under the original picture layer in the Layer Palette.
Place the pointer over the line that divides these two layers in the Layer Palette while holding down the Alt/Option Key and click.
You have created a layer group. Choose Save As and select Photoshop EPS as the file format. Name the file. You are done.

NOTE: You may use Help and Export Transparent Image for an interactive wizard to help prepare images with transparency to be used in a page-layout application.

Make old photos look more vivid

Old photos can look dark or have a brown or gray color covering the entire image. Photoshop can help brighten and color these types of photos to make them vibrant and bring them closer to their original state.

Use Photo Filter from the Adjustment Layers area to choose color filters based on what your photo looks like.
Choose Color Balance from the Adjustment Layers area to adjust flesh and other tone levels for different elements in the photo.
Use Levels to balance the photo after the above changes are made.
Select an area with the Magic Wand to adjust from the Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layer. You can repeat these steps as many times and in as many areas as necessary.
Adjust the Brightness/Contrast levels as your final adjustments to the photo.

Whiten teeth and eyes in Photoshop

There is no better way to make someone look fantastic than to whiten their teeth and eyes in a photo.

Create a new layer.
Select the Dodge tool.
Set the Range to Midtones on the Tool Options bar. The default Exposure is set at 50%. You may change this, but 50% is a good place to start.
Run the Dodge tool over the teeth and eyes to whiten. If you make a mistake or the results are too white, you can use Undo to reduce the Exposure level.
Zoom out frequently because the results often look different when viewing the entire image.

You may not know this but all professional photographers use Photoshop basics to edit their photos. No one takes perfect photos 100% of the time, even professional photographers fall prey to common problems such as red eye and poor lighting. Adobe Photoshop basics is the best way to turn your ordinary photos into extraordinary ones.

Regardless of the problem you can easily do what the professionals do and use Adobe Photoshop basics to fix these problems. Photoshop basics can even edit your subjects, making even the most ordinary subject look model perfect. Open any magazine and you will see photographs of beautiful models with near-perfect bodies and flawless skin; for many the only way this can be possible is through the use of Adobe Photoshop. Photoshop is the perfect “airbrush” software as it removes flaws such as zits or wrinkles with a few mouse clicks. Photoshop is so good that it can instantly remove 50 pounds, making your subject look like a super model.

I have a few tips on how you can turn your photos from ordinary into extraordinary using adobe photoshop basics.

One of the most common problems is red eye so I want to show how you can fix this problem. Even with the most advanced SLR camera, even with a camera that has red eye reduction, you will undoubtedly still have this problem. Photoshop comes with a red eye tool that automatically identifies and eliminates red eye from not only your human subjects but your pets as well.

Not all photos are taken in the best lighting condition and using Photoshop you have tools that will allow you to create brighter and clearer photos with more vibrant colors. Automatic tools allow you to clean up your image as well as improve its appearance with a click of the mouse. Simply adjusting the brightness and contrast you can make your photo look as if it was taken during perfect lighting conditions. Using sliders you can manually adjust your photos color settings thereby giving you the sharpest and cleanest appearance of the image as possible.

Have a distraction in your photo that you want to remove? Another great feature of Photoshop basics is that you can easily edit out unwanted objects, replacing it with anything you choose. Even replacing people and backgrounds is possible with a few clicks of the mouse.

These are only a few of the things you can do using Adobe Photoshop. Now you might be able to understand how even an amateur photographer can take studio quality photos. With the help of Adobe Photoshop you can turn your ordinary photos into extraordinary works of art.
