    Photoshop CC alternative for Killwhite

    Well, with my method I get the very same results like the ones they get on the Killwhite site. In fact, the first thing I did was trying my method on their images... And I saw no difference at all. May be there are some subtle things I just don't see?:)

    Photoshop CC alternative for Killwhite

    Try this: Select with Color Range, or press Ctrl+Alt+2, hit Delete key, deselect, then Layer->Matting->Remove White Matte. And keep in mind that there is no true solution to this. No one can tell if 50% Gray is a) the result of 50% opaque Black on the White background or b) the result of...

    Mosaic Maze Effect

    What exactly didn't work? I posted the sample maze pattern which thickens from left to right. Did you try to replicate the same effect?

    Mosaic Maze Effect

    I don't have the source image so I can't show the final image:frown: The point is to use the Minimum filter with the grayscale mask. I don't know why you can't paste the grayscale version to the mask. I just selected all, copied it and then pasted it on the filter mask. This is just one way...

    Mosaic Maze Effect

    I suggest you make the grayscale version of your picture. Copy it. Now make a maze on a new layer, convert it to Smart Object and apply Filter->Other->Minimum to it. Paste copied grayscale version on the filter mask. Add Threshold or Levels adjustment layer above.Play around with Minimum filter...

    Chromatic Aberration / Warp / How do they do this?

    Yet another and IMO simpler way is to use Distort->Glass filter with custom texture. There are several points to keep in mind though: 1. For some strange reason PS requires texture PSD to be in Multichannel mode for it to be used as texture in Glass filter. At least this is so in my CS5. That's...

    Chromatic Aberration / Warp / How do they do this?

    I suggest that these images were reflected on some uneven surface. You can do it in PS, if you are familiar with it's 3D tools. Just make 50% Gray image, select 3D->New Mesh From Grayscale->Plane object, set it's reflection to 100%. Create 3D Postcard object from your image. Merge the two...

    Apply color variation calculated from target and source image

    Sorry for not answering for so long, I was out of state. Apparently I was misled because you talked about color tables in your recent post... What I was talking about is that for Index color you can make color table file just by making 16x16 image with each pixel representing the color of your...

    Apply color variation calculated from target and source image

    I'm afraid I do not understand it clear but what is wrong with simple color tables? Make color table from the source color chart, make the color table from the target color chart. To make a color table from a color chart do the following: 1. Make your chart 16x16 pixels. 2. Save it as RAW...

    Need help with proper thresholding

    Using Threshold is always like this: some areas look good, other ones - just bad. I make it this way: 1. Choose the channel with lots of mid tones. Copy and paste it on your image 2. Add Threshold layer, choose Level value which gives you the best result. 3. Now add a 50% Gray layer under the...

    Eye Candy

    Spectrum, I totally agree with you. But sometimes PS just simply doesn't let you do what you want to do manually. Some plugins are there just BECAUSE doing it manually in PS is quite tiresome, pesky and sometimes is just simply impossible thing to do:)

    Threshold animation

    Thank you. Some basic Adjustment layers like Levels, Curves, H/S, Invert, Gradient map can be animated just by superimposing the before and after effect by changing the after effect's Opacity. Smart Objects really help here a lot. It's just that Threshold was really challenging and...
