That was for renx, but the same principle applies, just make sure you make a w3d texture, rather than the standard 3ds max one.

I tried to use the w3d skin editor for 3ds max, but it keeps making 3ds hang >.<

I have a similar problem, usually when i try and apply an alpha channel it crashes (usually when i haven't saved for a while) -_-

So sorry, can't help ya there

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

Does anyone know if there is a mixer palette (native or plugin) for PS CS2, much like the one in PSPX. If so, where can it be found?

[Wizard]

Sorry I have been looking actually. Best I have found thus far is Color Wheel Pro here

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

Oh god, not colour theory D:

Not really what i was looking for... this is what i was hoping for

thanks anyway...

[Wizard]

As I said, that was the best I have come up with so far. I have been searching to. If I come across it I'll let you know the link.

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

Thanks

This has been pissing me off for quite some time... when ever I used the smudge tool the smudged area becomes darker, and I can't figure out what's causing it...

- The brush mode is set to normal
- "Sample all layers" and "finger painting" aren't on
- The only additional properties I have set for the brush is Strenght jitter, which is set pen pressure (and switching this off doesn't help)

I don't know what else could be causing it, anyone got any ideas?

EDIT: What looks like brush marks are also appearing (and i just have a normal round brush)... dunno if that helps...

Well, I am trying to create a new MSN icon, with this file: (Size: 175x157) and when I add it in MSN the outcome is this: .
Please any advice to make it bigger?

[Wizard]

Looks like it's an MSN issue rather than a photoshop one. I assume you are using "Save for web". If so what settings did you choose?

[Alias]

MSN automatically resizes all emotes from files to minuscule size.

[Jazzie Spurs]

Save as > Gif > then :

[Wizard]

Well as Alias and I have said it's probably an MSN thing more than photoshop. I never save gifs that way. I use "save for web" as there are more options available with the save. But I'm 99% sure there isn't anything you can do in PS about it.

you can get a free trial of PSP (paint shop pro) here

and a free trial of PS (photoshop) here

but they only last a month

i don't think there is any good free software out there

google -> GIMP

also bob, what do u use?

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

I mainly use Photoshop, occasionally using Paint Shop Pro for more general art, since it has some features not present in Photoshop.


@Wiz: I'm not sure if I have this problem on my new PC, since I haven't really used the smudge tool that much yet, but if I do, I'll get a screenshot.

[Wizard]

Just realised.... you haven't got the smudge settings set to multiply or overlay have you? Not the layer style but the smudge style. Top menu^

If not screenshit when you get the chance!

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

It appears that this problem does happen on my pc... The first pic is after smudging, the second I locked the transparency, and filled with the original colour. You probably won't noticed much of a difference, but if you open them in tabs, and switch between the two, you will see it.




P.S. Image size is 300% for easier viewing.

Tbh I think I'd need to take a look inside PS. Any chance you can PM me the .psd and I will investigate. I have never noticed this effect when smudging, although it may just be a general effect of smudging that is only really noticable when working on something like this.

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

If this is a "normal" effect of smudging, it's was introduced in CS3, since I never had this problem in CS2. I'll get you the PSD at some point, although I don't see how that's gonna help tbh, this happens on all images in PS

HELP!, i accendently close the sidebar window that shows the layers/undo list etc, how do you restore it? as it wouldnt come back up when i restarted GIMP D:

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

Going back to my smudge problem... this is still highly annoying. Sample pic, along with settings used (pretty much defaults):

[Wizard]

I can't seem to duplicate this problem
