Photoshop CS3 memory usage

2008-07-08T21:51:29Z

Hallo! I use Photoshop CS3 at WinXP SP2 32bit, Core 2 Duo, 3 Gb of RAM and it always bugging me with such messages as "scratch disks are full", "not enough virtual memory" and the last one is "Process ran out from virtual memory VersionCueUI.DLL", after this it switches off...awfull! What should I do to avoid such memory problems? I have a huge empty HDD, which used as a "scratch disk", I've increased a virtual memory by making a big swap file in options of Windows...no effect!
Please, if anyone has faced something like that, help me!
Great thanks in advance!

Saving Images/Quality

2008-06-27T20:32:42Z

How come when I look at my wallpaper in Photoshop, it looks great, then when I save it, it looks blurry and the color is all faded?? It doesn't happen with icons, only wallpaper (Or all bigger graphics I guess). Is there any way I can save them and keep the quality? I tried PNG, GIF, JPG...they all look crappy.
I have Photoshop 7.0

I had to use small examples, because like I said, only small images seem to save correctly...

This is how it looks in Photoshop:

This is how it looks on my desktop:

imac - how important is a dual core processor?

2008-05-30T15:48:46Z

I'm in the process of looking for an iMac G5 to buy, mainly for photoediting with Photoshop CS3 and probably some video editing with imovie. Some of the computers I'm looking at have OS X Tiger, so I would probably upgrade to Leopard, others have Photoshop CS2, so I would probably upgrade to CS3.

Do you think my priority should be be on processor speed, on available RAM, HD capacity or what? My thought is not to be overly concerendd with HD capacity since I'll probably invest in an external hard drive anyway.

Also, since I'm not doing any gaming or serious multimedia design, how important is it to have a dual core processor, or is something with a single processor going to be fine (& if so would 1.8 GHz be enough)?

Thanks in advance.

dotted border and an envelope...

2008-04-26T01:57:22Z

So my PS has been doing this thing where it always has a border, number, and an envelope in/over the picture. I've no idea what it is or how made it do that, but it's the most annoying thing ever.

Anyone know of what I speak and how to get rid of it? Help is greatly appreciated!!

Auto-resize upon cropping

2008-03-07T22:35:18Z

I'm having a sudden cropping issue with Photoshop 7.0: whenever I crop something, it actually shrinks or enlarges the image instead of simply cropping it. No matter what size I'm cropping something to, it insists on re-sizing to 160 X 160 pixels.

Anyone have an idea of what I accidentally turned on or off to create this problem? It just started the last time I used Photoshop, and I don't recall tweaking any settings prior to this. Thanks!

Hi folks,

My patience is wearing thin with PaintShopPro, as they have not fixed a crippling bug with the last version I bought, XI.

So my question is whether PhotoShop Elements has the features I need for basic day-to-day work, that is: resize image, resize canvas, crop to selection, add border, and some sort of photo enhancement. I appreciate these are basic features, so I'm hoping it does have them.

Thanks

The end.

I'm sorry, that's a really stupid question but I can't figure out.

How can I draw straight lines in Photoshop? Which tool do I have to use for that?
Thanks in advance!

photoshop cs3

2007-10-23T20:38:04Z

has anyone else experienced difficulty with color inaccuracy?

eg: when i open an image, the colors appear super-saturated... but upon saving and viewing in any other program, they are pale by contrast.

up until recently i was running cs2 on my macbook and did not experience this problem.

any tips on how to correct this would be much appreciated!

thank you all for your suggestions! =) the solution lay in view > proof setup, in case anyone runs into this problem in the future.

Extracted Flowers

2007-09-25T20:52:22Z

I've been playing around with the extract tool, and using it to extract flowers from their backgrounds.

A table top studio would be easier, but I've grown to like the chance that shadows and angle of sunlight add to the images.

The series starts here.

I'm sorry if this has already been asked, but on Photoshop when I cropped it used to make the icon size right away, and it was really convenient. Now, though, when I try and crop my picture, it cuts the picture, it doesn't make it the size of an icon. I'm not sure if I'm describing this properly, so apologies for that. Is there any setting I need to press to get this back?

Thanks in advance.

Playing around with the Extract tool, using the method described in Scott Kelby's Photoshop CS2 Book for Digital Photographers. I know the line along the top of the index finger is pretty obvious, but if there's any other advice folks can offer, feel free to offer. Thanks!

Error Message Upon Startup

2007-08-14T10:26:10Z

Hello,

I am new to the community, as well to Photoshop. For years I've relied only on Paint Shop Pro until the other day I decided to download the 30 day trial and test out this program - which so far I am extremely liking. Although like a friend had mentioned, I'm having a hard time with the fonts and making them look as good as I can make them look by using Paint Shop Pro, but after a few more tutorials I'm sure I'll get at least the gist of using fonts in this program.

Anyways, my question is... When I start up Photoshop, I get an error message that tells me the program cannot find "mr310ifc.dll", what is this file and is it of importance to the program? What am I loosing by not having this file, and should I require it, can someone maybe point me in a direction where I could find this file?

I appreciate any help.

Looking forward to becoming a part of the community!
