I am the musical detective!

Hey, have you guys seen that little car commercial where the girl and the guy are tossing things out the window and bouncing them into the trunk of their car? And there's this wickedly catchy song playing in the background? (Here it is! Apparently it's for Mitsubishi ( Read more... )

music, audience participation, tech support!!!

Hee! The Truck of their car! ;) I'm sorry. I can't help myself. :)

If you've got both of the files open in Photoshop just drag one on top of the other (Or copy all and paste onto the other whichever), then you can merrily erase or change opacities as you wish.

Bwahahaha!! X-D Whoops?

That's what I was trying to do, but I suspect I was doing something wrong. (Don't ask me how I can get copy-and-pasting wrong.) It should work if they're both just .jpg files, eh?

*G* Yay for typos!

Try double clicking on one. It should open a box that lets you make jpg1 a layer. Then you should definitely be able to copy paste into jpg2.

Figured out the Photoshop issue. I had the stupid 'Magic Wand' tool selected instead of the 'Move' thingy!

Re: Oh for the love of... chlare April 22 2009, 02:44:27 UTC

Aha! Yes, that helps too. :)

I don't even know what the Magic Wand does. Pfffftttphphph, I say!

Re: Oh for the love of... chlare April 22 2009, 03:03:17 UTC

It tries to thwart you! Mwahahah!

Nah, it's a happy fun tool that will select bits of the same color. So like if your jpg you've got in the foreground had lots of white around it, you could just use the magic wand, click the white area and viola, all the white is selected for you to erase, clear, whatever. :)

Oh! I knew it would grab seemingly random blobs when I clicked on stuff, but now it makes sense! Thanks!

Ohohoh... I have figured it out. :-D

... I love you. Honestly. I am NOT laughing.

ohgod.

Re: Oh for the love of... strangecreature April 22 2009, 03:01:01 UTC

It's not my fault, I swear! My Photoshop program thinks that it's Harry Potter... Open it up and, pow, it goes for the Magic Wand. *hands*

Apparently I'm too tired to make innuendo of that. Be grateful. ;)
