    Product mockup with multiple smart object layers

    I am trying to do a mockup of a dog bow tie. I have copied the main layer so I have 3 layers of the bow tie and then selected the part of the bow tie I want to change in each layer. I have attached an image. Now I have my problems. I know I need to do a displacement map for each layer and...

    Smart Object refresh?

    Hi all, any help on this would be greatly appreciated!! I have a psd file that lays out 40+ playing cards for a card game. Each card has variable info (text, icons, colours, etc) and is contained in a separate folder. Icons on the cards are smart objects (i.e. the icon for "move" is a smart...

    Enlarge Photo as Smart Object - Rasterize/Upsample?!?

    Hi, we are creating a couple very large banners (76" x 108"). We are comping a couple images for the background, but neither is close to large enough (we prefer to shoot for 150ppi, as they will be seen up close at arms length). So I've brought in my original images (one only 1080px tall -...

    Odd Issue with Smart Objects

    Okay, I'm really new here, and to PS too (about 2-3 months' experience). But the other day I purchased an e-book reader mockup (at a good price, too), and was at a bit of a loss. It uses smart objects, so of course I had to google that. But once I did, I was surprised at how incredibly easy it...

    Everything in Photoshop CS6 gets pixelated

    I have a problem with photoshop. Everything I do gets pixelated. When I paste or place an object from Illustrator CS6 I choose place as smart object and as soon as I pace it it gets pixelated. I have tried with and without the anti-aliased box checked. When the box is checked photoshop...

    Batch Automation Batch replacing Smart Objects

    Hi, everybody. I'm all new around here, but please allow me to skip the introduction and get right down to business. This is the deal - I need to create, and have done it with some minor success so far, a script in Photoshop which lays out vector logos onto pictures of clothing, in order to...

    Linked smart objects within smart objects

    Hello! I am currently trying to create a 2D animated doll, with individual pieces/layers easily replaceable with new designs. The idea is, the doll consists of pieces (chest, waist, thigh, shin, foot, etc.) which are animated with simple transformations. Replacing the "source" piece reflects...

    How to avoid resaving smart objects?

    Hello all, although I can't imagine this question not to be already asked, I couldn't find it. In CS6, when I drag a picture into my ps file, it gets converted into a smart object. If the pic happens to be something like a png or jpg, and i add some adjustment layers or so, PS wants me to save...

    Levels adjustments on smart objects

    For some reason I can't add a levels adjustment (image->adjustments->levels) to a smart object. I can add shadows/Highlights and HDR Toning but all the rest of the options are greyed out. I know I can add an adjustment layer but for reasons to complicated to go into here I need to keep the...

    Can I place a smart object and specify a layer comp?

    I have many buttons, each as a layer comp, in a single file. I do this because there are many common elements: layers for the button base, shared features, button gloss, etc. What changes is the icon on the button, and possibly a supporting label. I want to place these buttons on...
