How to make a watermark semi transparent?

I want to make a watermark to include in all my images. I would like to create a text that is semi transparent completely transparent one side then discoloration on the other side. Can someone tell how to do it please? I have CS5. Thank you.

I'll show you my way:

1. Enter the text and click on the layer mask icon. The layer mask should be all white and a small border. Which indicates the mask 'active' ist.

The foreground color should be black and the background color white.

2. choose the gradient tool. The degraded window. Choose the first gradient, "foreground to background" = black and white.

Change the color from white to gray.

3. check the layer mask > is active?

Apply the gradient from right to left on your text.

See the thin line in the screenshot.

4. on your mask layer appears the gradient left starting with gray and straight ending in black.

The advantage of this method is that you can change your text without changing the gradient.

The black color on the layer mask hides the text, gray makes the text more or less visible, and white means completely visible.

It will be useful.

    I am a beginner and create my first website and just started coding for the first time today. I'm trying to do my transparent background behind the text, or at least replace the text + the background of a menu with my own photo. Is it possible that I can do as possible. You can get an overview of my problem here on my test site.

    I have a backup plan if it is not possible. Can I just replace the menu with pictures that will respond as buttons when you click right align horizontal.

    If you need additional information, please let me know!

    I discovered how to change. If you have a default color as background of your Spry menu bar, simply click on the default code of the background color and then delete and leave the field blank. It will automatically make your transparent background.

  • How to make a layer of transparent text over an image that scrolls?

    I looked through inspire them to Adobe Magazine and found something really amazing: the editor is added an effect of text-more-photo several times throughout the magazine (see http://inspire.adobe.com/, October 2014. Must be on the iPad to see the real effect. ("It's stories" by Dan Cowles has this effect).

    I was really confused to see that it fits perfectly my current project. I'm building a book on a recent trip to Iceland, which will be available for the iPad in the near future. So far, I used Adobe InDesign CC to create virtually the entire book, because I know little or nothing to the programming.

    My question is, how (he) did?

    Is it possible to do for someone with a limited knowledge? If this is the case, how can I do it?

    Thank you very much!

    Because Adobe inspire is made using DPS, so you can do what he does.

    At the top of the document using, Digital Publishing Suite help | Digital Publishing Suite help, there are links to topics such as commissioning, design and presentation, system requirements, etc.. Read more to get an overview. In addition, to download and read advice from DPS on the App Store.

    If you use Creative Cloud 2014, you should already have DPS tools at your disposal. DPS is supported for InDesign version 6 or greater. I found DPS fairly simple to use according to the information provided in the documentation as well as the help of this forum and the advice of DPS.

  • How to make a transparent text so as to keep the whiteness

    This can be very simple, but have failed to do it again. Have tried all the effect different merger on the text layer, but so that it makes the text more transparent it becomes too dark, how to avoid this? And while Im at it, it is the final effect of I'm looking for with the whole project.

    If anyone knows which fonts and effects used would be great.

    WTF.jpg

    Well, that's the whole issue of blend modes - they mix the two values in pixels. The only way to change the behavior would be to also change the bottom layer. In your case, several copies of the text tinted different colors and where the modes in different opacities of merger should do the trick. Sometimes there is no one-click solution to achieve a specific look.

  • How to make my picture as a transparent background for my Web page?

    Hi guys I am new to web design so please excuse if that seems like a silly question. I think my website in cs6 fireworks but I am able to edit the photo, I need transparent in photshop cs6 so according to what you feel would be best suited, please advise on how to make the image of the car in this picture below transparent. I need the lack of transparency in order for writing to finally go overboard, how would you recommend that I do this.

    Please note that may also offer you constructive criticism on the overall design of the site. Banners and buttons are that consumers demand not so much can be changed with respect to that.

    screenshot.PNG

    Not sure understand your question about transparent car image.  In web design you use with CSS background images then put real text in the HTML text of overlays on top of the image.

    To change transparency in Photoshop, adjust the opacity or fill level on your layer.

    How to make images transparent when psd I drag and drop the layer on the stage on flash cs6?

    For example an iv was do what he so far recorded as a psd and then go to the folder to import into the flash library. It's very very time consuming and would be a lot easyer if I can simply drag and drop the layer photoshop on the scene, but the problem is that the image gets a white box around it and that it is not transparent, when I do this.


    Is there an option in photoshop or flash to solve this problem and make the background transparent?

    Reminds me of Mario Bros. Yoshi

    I know what you want to do, but as the first answer mentioned, you can do it. Until Photoshop is updated to copy with transparency intact in the Windows Clipboard, you will not be able to do. The reason why I've linked and showed a screenshot of the GIMP is to prove that it is a limitation of Photoshop, not a limitation of Flash or the Windows Clipboard.

    Knowing this, it not there no way for you to copy/paste, drag/drop from Photoshop directly in Flash.

    Cartoon animation is essentially identical to the way most of the games work. You create one large master image that contains all the possible variations of your subject (a face, a car, etc.) and import that into a game. Do you the same thing during the animation, only you keep them all separate instead of a single image.

    Knowing that your experience with Flash is small and growing, I won't make the most optimal recommendation. I'll stick to 2 things that I've mentioned before, but elaborate on them.

    (1) save your assets on real png with transparency, then import them into Flash.

    The reason why I highly recommend this much is due to the function of update of the Flash (I'll explain) and it is possible to automate some (also will be explained).

    So, I grabbed a sheet of sprite in Yoshi and say that I did a new pose as you mentioned. In Photoshop I have then select and copy this new single pose, with transparency:

    As you know, once you do that you can bring up a "New Image" dialog box, and it will already have the size of your pixels copied (with adorned transparency):

    You can see the size is correct and the preset's Clipboard. After that, you just paste your new image in and clear the background to achieve transparency. Then save you it to a separate file. I always use save for Web to a pinch of optimization of size of files and general control:

    Yet once, I realize that it is much more that you want to do, but all of this can be automated which will be explained after virtually making a send operation button.

    Now we have the image as a separate new PNG image with transparency intact. This image should be imported into the Flash library:

    Now you have both a separate physical copy of this pose in a PNG file (which can be useful for many reasons) and Flash can use this file with it's built in control of update of the very rapid changes.

    Now say you touch up your a pose a bit. I'll make it really obvious and change the hue of all. You make your changes in Photoshop, follow the same process (even make changes to the original image size), possibly replacing the PNG you created for this installation:

    Now in Flash, all you need to do is use the update feature. Right-click on the image in your library, select update. Because it is a file with a physical location, that's all that is needed to change the image in Flash:

    The power in this is that if you make changes to dozens or hundreds of png, you can do this command in a single Flash. Select all modified images and press update and all your changes will be made at the time. You can't do this kind of things when you copy and paste directly into Flash.

    That said, almost all of the steps above can be automated using the Photoshops Actions Panel. No need to reinvent the wheel, Actions are explained here:

    http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/Photoshop/CS/using/WSfd1234e1c4b69f30ea53e41001031ab64-7448a.h tml

    I would recommend the Save action once you make your selection rectangle around what you want to save a PNG image. Save up to save for Web and stop there. Then in the future, you press the shortcut key that affect you and it will be part of your choice, open a new document, paste it in, turn off the background for transparency and you will bring to the dialog box in which you can name the image. It's pretty simple and automated. Then just import into Flash and enjoy the benefits.

    (2) use Photoshop to create assets, then another program to copy/paste in Flash

    Is not ideal to have 2 programs need, however if you really want you copy and paste directly into Flash, it is the way to go. Download any program that can read the PSD file format, open your PSD in there. If you have enough RAM this shouldn't really be a problem (PS and GIMP side by side, same open file):

    As you make changes to the PSD, just hit reload or go back in your program to support ' copy in transparency ', copy what you need, paste it into Flash:

    I'll explain some of the benefits of the previous workflow if you want, but I think that this is the overload of enough information for now.
