PHOTOSHOP SCRIPT TO BATCH IMPORT IMAGES INTO PSD LAYER

PHOTOSHOP SCRIPT TO BATCH IMPORT IMAGES INTO PSD LAYER

photoshop script to batch import images into PSD layer
Adobe Photoshop is one of the world's best known software applications and widely used in professional graphics, both in print and for web work. While there are some great open source graphics applications like GIMP or Krita, sometimes Photoshop is still the only application which can be used in certain cases - especially in the pre-press world.
One of the sources of its power is the native PSD file format. A PSD file can not only hold image data, but is more of a large container which can include metadata, camera info, text, vector artwork and more. Most other programs only handle a small subset of its capabilities.
PSD Import
Scribus does have its own native capabilities to import PSD files from version 6 and earlier - the latest version of the PSD format which is publicly documented. The Scribus Team has also been able to worm some features out of files created with later PS versions, so most PSD files can at least be loaded into Scribus, but they may have file format features which are not supported.
In general, PSD support is quite extensive, including:
The ability to manipulate and adjust layer settings.
The option to enable and use masking along with the paths embedded in the file.
In almost all cases, provided they are not defective, ICC color profiles which are embedded into a PSD are detected and used when color management is enabled.
Scribus generally will import 8-bit Greyscale, RGB and CMYK PSD files without issue.
Alpha transparency is supported.
Scribus will import PSD files with normal layers and will display the individual layers in the Extended Image Properties dialog, which is avialable from the Context Menu.
Clipping paths in PSD files will be recognized and can be used for text flow.
Blending modes which are in the image file can be used to affect the way the image displays and prints. It's also possible to modify blending or to apply other modes between PSD layers. This won't affect the original file.
In almost all cases Scribus will automatically detect the file encoding, whether it is ASCII, Binary or Binary with JPEG.
Potential Issues
Adjustment layers and effect layers are not yet supported. In such a case, Scribus will fall back to using a "flattened" version of the file.
Layered TIFFs saved from Photoshop are often not handled well by other TIFF readers and importing applications. This is because Photoshop actually embeds PSD type layers in a private tag. Scribus will attempt to read the PSD layers info and, if successful, make it accessible to the Extended Image Properties dialog. Text and vector layers within this private tag are not yet supported.
Specialties
DCS (Desktop Color Separations) 1.x/2.0 files are a special flavor of EPS saved in Photoshop and are imported natively - much like a PSD file - and complete with ICC profile support. Image quality should be close to or equivalent to the native PSD file. Vector masks are also detected and can be used to control the display within Extended Image Properties. DCS files can also be saved from Quark XPress®, but this flavor will be imported using Ghostscript as a filter for the time being. This is partly because the way Quark X-Press® exports them does not conform to the DCS specifications properly.
Scribus can detect Duotones, Tritones and Quadtones in PSD and Photoshop EPS files and import them. The difference between both formats is that you need to import the spot colors from the EPS separately via Edit > Colors > Import. If you import a PSD file, you can directly manipulate each of the spot colors within it via the Image Effects dialog, which is available from the Context Menu. In most cases, Scribus will detect the image as Duo, Tri or Quadtone and automatically import the colors from the PSD file.
Microsoft Expression Web enables you to generate a .png (PNG-24), .gif, or .jpg file from an Adobe Photoshop .psd file and select the Photoshop layers you want to include or exclude from the image. If you want to make changes to the original .psd file, in Expression Web, you can select the web-optimized image that Expression Web generated for you and conveniently open the original .psd file in your default .psd file editor, such as Adobe Photoshop.
Expression Web can import Photoshop .psd files that have all the following properties:

PHOTOSHOP CS6 NEW FEATURES - BACKGROUND SAVE AND AUTO SAVE

PHOTOSHOP CS6 NEW FEATURES - BACKGROUND SAVE AND AUTO SAVE

Be honest, how many times have you lost hours of work because you forgot to save your files? Photoshop users have been asking for a background save and auto recovery feature for a long time. In Photoshop CS6, Adobe delivered! In this episode of our Introduction to Photoshop CS6 series we will discuss Photoshop CS6′s new Background Save and Auto Recovery Features. Let's take a look!AutoSave is a crazy little application/service that runs in the background (PC only it would appear). You download it, install it and you will find the logo above appear in your system tray.
Right clicking the icon gives you the option to choose how often to save, whether or not you want backups made (and how often) and what applications you want it to work on!
Did I mention it's Free? The person does ask you to buy them a beer or coffee if you like it, I donated happily and recieved a very sincerely thank you message.
AutoSave works not only on PhotoShop but also on Dreamweaver and Illustrator. It will also work on a few non-Adobe apps like Painter, 3DMax, SketchUp, MangaStudio and Notepad++.
The makers of the app did not ask me to post this, I am simply shocked it's not not out there more and I find it to be a lifesaver!

HOW TO DO A BATCH ASSIGN COLOR PROFILE IN PHOTOSHOP

HOW TO DO A BATCH ASSIGN COLOR PROFILE IN PHOTOSHOP

How to do a batch assign color profile in photoshop
RGB by itself, with no modifiers, is not a designation for a color profile. It is simply a generic description of the file type (like CYMK or grayscale). sRGB is a designation for a specific RGB profile.
If you open one of these images in PSCS3 (and if you have selected the appropriate warnings in the Color Management dialog) the program will inform you if the image is tagged with a profile other than your working color space, or if the image is not tagged at all. If the former, then just convert to sRGB. If the latter, assign sRGB profile.
Batch processing is very useful when a large number of files require the same processing. For example, using a camera to digitize a diary can easily generate hundreds of images that need to be rotated and renamed. Batch processing allows the changes to be applied to a group of files.
The main steps that may need to be done with batch processing for historical images are listed below in the order they would typically be applied.
· Crop the image
· Rotate the image
· Adjust tone and color
· Set the resolution to determine the size of the output image
· Assign or convert color space for the image
· Set the format of the output file
· Rename the file
Batch processing begins by identifying the changes that need to be made for a group of images. Typically, the changes are made to one of the files and the steps or settings recorded. Then these changes are specified for batch processing and applied to the other files. Output file names typically have characters identifying the group of files and then a number that is incremented for each file in sequence (e.g., dmb_diary_1926_001, dmb_diary_1926_002).
The safest strategy for batch processing is to put the output files in a separate folder from the input files. The input files should not be deleted until the batch processing has been verified to have completed successfully. While batch processing can greatly speed processing, it can also cause extensive damage if there are problems. With separate input and output folders batch processing can easily and reliably be redone if there are problems.
As would be expected, Photoshop CS has powerful batch processing capabilities. Photoshop Elements has limited batch processing capabilities that primarily can convert the format and apply auto adjustments to a group of files, but does not have a way to rotate the images or make custom adjustments. The free XnView image viewing application has useful batch processing capabilities but is limited to processing with only 8 bits per channel. XnView used alone or along with Photoshop Elements is usually adequate for processing simple documents such as diaries.
It is highly recommended that each image is checked to make sure the result of the batch processing was as expected. These checks can be done quickly with image viewing software such as XnView or the Windows Photo Viewer.

HOW TO CREATE A COOL SUPER SWIRL EFFECT ON PHOTOSHOP

HOW TO CREATE A COOL SUPER SWIRL EFFECT ON PHOTOSHOP

Some of the techniques I used here I took from other tutorials and also from another tutorial I wrote some time ago for PSDtuts Mix Cool Retro Curves Into Your Photographs. Besides, the design is inspired by the amazing work of James White, so I highly recommend you to check his work out.
As I said before I used some techniques we saw before, from other tutorials. But one of the ideas of this tutorial is learn how to apply what we have learned from this tutorials, and create different effect.
Step 1
Open Photoshop and create a new document. I used for this tutorial the wallpaper size of 1900x1200 pixels. Right after that fill the background layer with black and with the Rectangular Marquee Tool(M) create a selection like the image below.
Step 2 - Brush
This is exactly what we saw on the other tutorial I wrote, there are just a few differences. But let's repeat the step here.
1 - Add a new layer and fill it with gray. 2 - Go to Edit>Define Brush Preset... 3 - Rename your brush to "Rec Brush".
Step 3
Now let's edit our brush, to do that go to the Brush Engine, Window>Brushes (F5). Basically we will use the Shape Dynamics, Scattering, Color Dynamics and Other Dynamics to create the efect we want. Just follow the image below for reference.
Step 4
With our custom brush let's create the effect, add a layer and paint some rectangles. After that let's add some Layer Style. Go to Layer>Layer Style>Drop Shadow. Use Color Burn for the Blend Mode, 80% Opacity, 120º Angle, 5px Distance, and 10px Size.
The last thing here is to repeat this step 2 more times. Like create another layer, paint some brush and add the Layer Style.
Step 5
Now let's resize the layer, just horizontally. You can go to Edit>Transform>Scale, or just press CMD+T(mac) or CRTL+T(pc). After that go to Filter>Blur>Motion Blur. Use 90º for the angle and 155 pixels for the distance.
Step 6
Select the Ellipse Tool (U) and create a big ellipse, it will be the dark planet. Use the image below for reference.
Step 7
Now let's make some adjustments. Let use Layer Masks to delete some parts of the image and to make others darker. So first select the ellipse layer and go to Layer>Layer Mask>Reveal All. Then select the Brush Tool(B) and big brush, the regular one rounded with 200 pixels, hardness 0%, and the color black. Now just delete some parts of the ellipse (1-4). After that select the rectangles and repeat add a layer mask exactly like we did before. Again select the brush tool, it will be the same preset as the last usage, this time however, change the opacity to 20% and paint some areas to maks some retangles. (5-11).
Step 8
Here let's add some color, I will use Abduzeedo's color. So go to Layer>New Fill Layer>Gradient. Change the angle to 90%, and scale to 80%. After that just change the Blend Mode to Overlay.
