Really Bad Photoshop!

 

Want a good chuckle on this Monday morning? I stumbled on a blog this weekend that I am pretty sure I saw on Rod Harlan’s blog some time ago. Its called Photoshop Disaster and it is a hilarious showcase of some rather obvious and not-so-obvious Photoshop blunders. In the spirit of Jay Leno’s headlines bit, this site takes a similar approach but with images. I took a look at some of these and I am completely surprised they made it into print. Some are perhaps simple things that might have been overlooked or they might have been intentional. Which then begs the question: What were they thinking? If anything this site will make you appreciate the diligence of going over detail and getting it right the first time. While it is funny, you don’t necessarily want your stuff showing up on a site like this.

    That actually makes me feel good! I’ve done some stuff like that in the past but hopefully will not in the future. Especially now that I’ve see it here!

Creating Place Scale Markers

You know those scale markers they have on maps that say that 1″ equals 1 mile? Well, Photoshop can create something called Scale Markers. These are measurement guides that are created based on the measurement scale you use. Once a measurement scale is established, go under the Analysis menu and choose Place Scale Marker. In this example, I have established my measurement scale to interpret 100 pixels as 1″ in a file that’s 10″ wide at 100 dpi. So if I want to create a 3″ scale marker, then I would enter 3 in the Length field. I can also choose to display text as a label for the marker. You can choose its color and placement depending on the file.
