It's incredible how your experience saw that straight away, thanks!

Damien, I would really like to send you the three images that you require when help with editing an image. However, when I Cmd N I'm getting this screen and don't know why. I used to be able to be able to Cmd N then Cmd V and everything work out smoothly but now I'm getting a screen that looks like this. Any idea why?

I'm attempting to make a 700x700 crop but the spot (that should show in top left hand corner of PS) Fixed Size is not on my screen. I'm not sure why I can't find it. Are you able to tell me how to find it please?

Just saying hello Damien! I took a little break only because I get tired of the computer screen glaring at me and the chair aching my back from sitting so long. Oh how I wish you had a book or in person classes that I could attend. Talk to you soon!

Oh, I will.

No, I have not. I can read about it.

Ok good. 20 pics.

Before any editing takes place on this image I would like to know if 1) removing the wrinkles is possible? 2) it is a simple fix? vivid colors; flash/custom WB (what's set in camera)

Please don't say that. You've made an excellent start - much better than some other people. Haha, it didn't kill me!!

I got it with the brush tool. I hadn't signed online until just now so I hadn't even read your message until just now but I did work on several pictures and once I signed on to ask you how you wanted me to send them I saw your messages. Thank you for the explanation and visual!

No, I'd already decided to move on to other images without nipples (even though several in that gallery has nippage ?). I have about 7 or 8 to post. Should I post one at a time and wait for your feedback OR is it ok to post each one (in separate postings) at one time? In the meantime, I'll try the B button...

Thank you. No, I haven’t tried. I will once I’m on the computer. I don’t even know what a brush tool is Damien which I’ll be googling as well . I’m really sorry for bothering. I’ve never used any of this stuff. It’s all a foreign language to me. I know a little about many things in the world BUT editing and its programs I do not. THIS is why 1) I’ve paid people to edit for me and 2) why I even gave up on your classes and 3) why I signed up three times for the same Raw class. I. Do. Not. Know! I’m not seeking attention nor am I trying to make things difficult. I really am trying to learn man, jeesh!

Hi All, I shoot boudoir and need to find a way to cover lady bits (primarily breast nipples) so I’m not in trouble on social media. I’ve searched here in this forum as well as googled (“how to cover nipples in PS”) but nothing is turning up. All I’m getting is how to create/add nipples. Can someone give me a link or maybe give me instructions as to how to do it? The ONLY editing I know how to do is from the Raw Class so keep that in mind if you give me directions Thank you! Shannon

I didn't try. I want to master raw processing before I do anything. (Looks like raw processing will be the death of me!!). However, I did read the article on the patch tool and bookmarked the page.

I would like to remove the white string on the breast left of image. There's also a hair strand that needs removing.

Ok, I won't read or even try another thing until I finish the Raw class. It's like that class is taking me a million years to finish.

Oh God!!! I'll do better. I promise! I'm working hard, reading all of what you have to tell me and try it before I even ask anything...

You can't get mad at me. At least not yet. All these crazy mistakes I'm making is what's going to actually help me; I'll never forget it once I've grasped it!

In fact, no matter what area I select the same portion of the image turns white.

Directions were to select a spot by the hair...

Duh... Ok

Is this where I should post the white background that we talked about?

Yes, I'll do both.

Hi Damien. So, I know you said be extremely careful when it came to making a backdrop white. I thought I'd try it a bit. Everything went ok until it was time to use the polygonal lasso tool. I could not select the background. Just to see if I wasn't missing something I tried the other two lasso tools (lasso and magnetic) and was able to select the background but when I got to Step 5 to click a spot near subject's hair it wasn't the background that turned white, it was the foreground -- the area that included the subject that turned white. My question is... 1) What am I doing incorrectly for the polygonal tool not to work and 2) how do I get the background instead of the foreground to turn white? Forgive me if I'm asking in the wrong spot. Thank you.
