It's not too complicated. There's no trick to it, really. You just have to fiddle with the colours until it's about right.

No no no no no. Don't rasterize. What are you attempting to do, when that message appears?

Shit no, don't be silly. You definitely want the whole photo.

No, you just copied and pasted. That's bad. Always use File>Place. Have you re-read Module 7 of the L&M Class lately?

Ok, may I see screenshots of that too?

This is so funny. Why did you take a photo of just the shirt? Anyway, can you show me a screenshot of what you've done so far?

Your masking still needs to be tidied up, but I don't think it looks poor.

Also, to begin, can you do this for me?

Hi Olivia, The photo you've showed me there is a raw file. Can we put that aside for a moment. How about jpeg files? Are they different too? Between the viewer and Photoshop, I mean.

Glad you like it. I used a 5% brush because I was in a bit of a hurry. Hopefully you'll find that 5% works for you too, but you may need to drop to 3% to make it look really smooth.

Oh Wendy, I wish I had some magic quick fix for you. Sometimes there is, but not this time It'll have to be handyman method. It's very very good, but it does take a bit of time.

*thumbs up*

Check for yourself. Download the file.

No, the file you posted here is definitely untagged. Its master file is sRGB, yes, but it wasn't saved with its profile for web.

Washing out when you view it where? It's untagged, for starters. That's likely part of the problem.

Yes, this is very normal, I promise. Your mouse would do the same, I'm sure.

Hooray!

And when you're Alt-dragging the new shape, you really should see it snap to the grids.

Sorry this is biggish: Download PSD

No problem at all. Let me know how you go. If you've got a lot of them to do, consider making this: https://www.damiensymonds.net/act_web.html

Your preferences are set up correctly. I don't understand why the the snapping wouldn't be working, sorry. Yes, with the Path Selection Tool (A). It's about 4/5ths of the way down the toolbar, two places below the Text Tool. Choose it, click on a shape, then Alt-drag to create a copy of the shape.

I would just rebuild the area. Easier than D&B. Can you post the 100% crop again, after you've done your noise removal? *frowns*

Gee, I reckon that's enough. It's perfectly plausible to leave some glow there.

That's entirely up to you. Web sharpening is WYSIWYG. Just make sure you only view it at 100%. By the way, make sure you position your watermark on an area that can't be easily cropped or edited out.

It's what happens when your website advises a specific size, yes.
