Hello,
please help me, i'm using Photoshop cs4. I'm giving example of picture and you will understand. I need to color a lot of circles, but most of them don't have full lines and when i'm using ''Paint bucket tool'' to color circle inside, happenings that all my picture became in blue color. So i must to use pencil to finish circle lines and just then use ''Paint bucket tool''. But i want that it could be doing automatically, that ''Paint bucket tool'' would be programed, that if there is from 1 to 5 pixels in circle white color, ''Paint bucket tool'' wouldn't look to them and paint just circle inside. How i can to program my CS4 so? Please help me.
Thank you :)
 
Try using the quick selection tool - just click inside the circle and it should select the whole thing and then fill your selection on a layer below.
 
Use the quick selection tool (looks like a paintbrush with dotted selection circle beside it - it is an alternate tool to the magic wand, so click and hold on magic wand tool and select 'Quick Selection Tool' from tool menu flyout). Set your foreground colour - the top swatch colour at the bottom of the toolbar - default is black. To change simply click on the swatch and pick new colour. Then click inside the cicle and selection should fill up whole circle. Now go Edit > Fill, or press option/alt and Delete to fill with foreground. If that doesn't make sense, google tutorial on using the quick selection tool. I think it will easily do the job for you.
