Well, it's really not easy to make a face look like it's lit by a small close light source. I don't supposed you'll be able to take the photo again, with a lamp near her?

Instead of the girl who's there, do you mean?

Sorry, I don't understand the question.

Thanks. You must have taken plenty of photos on that day. So you need to look for one where the background is clear in that spot where the background lady is. So you can swap it in, you know?

Hooray!!!

I'm so sorry Pat, I don't know.

Hi Nicki, can you show me roughly how close you intend to crop, so I can see how much background fiddling we need to do?

Ok, can you tag me on the slide in Module 4 where things aren't working for you?

Can't wait to see it!

What I'm reading is that 1280x720 is the recommended size for Facebook videos.

Is it enlarging it on your computer screen?

Yes it is. I'm not sure if it's included in the normal suite, though.

Oh, maybe it's done with Adobe After Effects?

Sorry, I can't see a closed group.

The clouds look perfectly plausible. Well done.

Maybe they know of a way to save them as movies rather than gifs. Can you link me to some?

Gosh. You'll need another photo to provide good ear, and another photo to provide spare cheek, won't you? This looks REALLY difficult.

Dotty, do you mean? Alas, that's just how gifs are.

Yes, of course. You need to shrink your file to web-ish dimensions first.

Yes, I do it all the time in my CS5, so you can definitely do it in CS6.

Oh, it's great fun. Have you ever played with the "Animation" panel in Photoshop? Basically, you create different layers in your image, then go to the Animation panel and choose "Make frames from layers". Play with frame timing and such. Then eventually save as a GIF. I don't have a tutorial about it, sorry, but I'm sure you'll find plenty out there.

Hi @Elizabeth Blowers, how far through the Bridge Class have you read so far?

Just right-click on it, choose "Label>No Label". If you go to the Label menu at the top of the screen, you'll see that each one has a number assigned to it. You must have accidentally hit that number.

Yes, somebody else mentioned this too. It's a glitch with the latest PS update, as far as we can tell. Waiting for an update to the update.

I love love love love LOVE my Epson V700. It's always been very good to me, for a long time. Am I correct in guessing that it's the V500 you're looking at?
