  • Mr. Jim's Basic Channel Masking

    Hi Jim,

    I thought that tutorial was great. It got printed out right away for safe keeping. Admittedly, I haven't checked out all the tutorials (I know I should have by now), but it's time to do that. Thanks very much for making it available for us.

    Ah, finally got the chance to try Jim's tutorial. It worked real sweet! If anyone's having a problem with hair, I suggest you try it. The one I worked on was a little different from the one shown in the tutorial, so I made some minor changes. I wound up using the red channel instead of the blue because the blue channel made everything kind of blend together. The red channel gave me what I needed. The hair in the mask became white, so the alpha channel needed to be inverted. Thanks again Jim - it's a keeper.

      Using Channel Mixer Effectively

      Channelmixer not accurate?
      by limaze
      Hello RetouchPRO users, i am a little confused about the Channelmixer in Photoshop. In its options, when i chose Monochrome and set BLUE to 100%, the other channels to 0%, i expected it to result in the same picture i get when looking at the normal Blue channel from the Channels tab. But those two are...

      Photoshop channels and cloning: Explanation needed
      by albatrosss
      I was using Window>Arrange>New Window to Use With Tutorial to smooth skin. I found that when I turned off the eye on say the Red and Blue Channel and used the Green Channel, the RGB image would reflect any changes I made with the Clone Tool. If, however, I simply selected the Green Channel,...
