Exports to Flash? Where? I think you must have CS4 for web. I just have the print version...

Okay, frames it is. 

The timeline thing is SO much cooler.

I've haven't done this in photoshop, but I found this

PSD has a fantastic animation feature.  Easy.  Works.

See it in action.

So.  How do I make it loop??  I can't find an answer on the internets anywhere.

The animation is currently in "timeline mode".  Does it have to be in "frame mode" to loop?

When we first got our MacBooks back in October, I downloaded the 30 day trial. I was impressed with the program. Lots of the stuff you can do with photos in PS, you can do in LR. But not everything that I like to use. So I didn't buy it. I went ahead and bought PS CS4.

The photos I took in Paris at the end of October, and posted in the Photo topic here, I processed in LR. You can see them all in a set on my Flickr stream.

wow..no one responded to this one...i will give it a crack..
i downloaded the 30 day trial, and it wasn't really that hard to use, and has some powerful tools..
i am used to using phase one's capture one program, and its not as easy  as that..but i think once
you get the hang of it, it should be fine..
depends what you want it for. it is designed for pro photogs who manage thousands of images
so it is a decent product...
i would say check out the free trial and aperture if you have a mac and make a decision...
and you could check out the phase one product...its cheaper and its good.

also you can check out the photoshop user tv podcast on itunes...its free, and  lots of tips..

just for the record i didn't buy it, stuck with phase one...
you can probably get a trial on that too...

good luck.

Anyone use Adobe Lightroom? For what? How easy is it to learn?

Muchas Gracias.

enter the appropriate sizes..
make sure the resample image box is ticked

enter the dimensions and

change to some other name so you don't lose your original.

I have CS4.  I have to resize some photos to 800L - no smaller than 75% or JPEG8.  Can anyone tell me what the hell I need to do?  I haven't used PS in over 10 years and lets just say this is not my mama's PS.

Yep. The tiffs are 16 bit files. You need to convert them to 8 bit before saving as jpegs.

Might be a good idea to save a copy of the full-size, hi-res tiff, then start mucking about on what you have.

 BillJ wrote: 
Usually if there are layers involved, as greenchili mentioned.

In some cases, with the save box open, you need to check "save as copy"

What version of PS are you using?  I just checked on my version of CS3.  Once you go into the "save as" routine, it will default to whatever you sucked up to begin with.  Once in the "save as" routine, you will see a option for "format".  If you click there, you should get a whole raft full of options listed.   Mine version of CS3 (for windows) is showing the JPEG option right in the middle of the pack.  This assumes you have merged all of you layers etc.  You have done that, right?  I have not found the dpi to make a difference when saving to jpg.

Um, you might need to change them from 16- or 32-bit to 8-bit. In the menu, go to Image, Mode, and change it there. That's all I got!

If you email it to me, i will take a look.

I'm a real newbie to PS.  I've scanned some negs @ 1200 DPI  and saved them as TIF files.  I've started making changes to the images and want to save as a JPG file.  When I go to "save as", why doesn't JPG show up as an option?  FWIW, I've been cropping at 300dpi for these (soon to be) JPG images.
