Great video! I've been watching endless "help" videos on youtube the past week and this has been the best approach and presentation. Thank you for your help!
Hmm -- I looked for more tutorials and just discovered that I have viewed this one before but checked commend further and added some info to my .rtf related to PSX Pro. Too bad little has been added to the tutorials so far created. Even after using the program it is good to be able to see what others have gleaned and tips/tricks to enhance its usage. Look forward to seeing more PSX videos so if a little shove is needed, I just raided my boot. TIA
what version is this? It doesn't look like the newest version 3.7. I have 3.3 and 3.7. This tutorial looks like it is in the 3.3 version. I actually prefer that one over the new one. I can't figure out where they moved everything around. Now that I would like to see a tutorial for. If you know how to work that one that would be great. Thanks.
another little request -- related to Borders and Frames. I like the use of both which I have full use of with PSX Pro (I think latest update is 4.1.1 which I have but no indication of another update but if there is one a link would be good. Anyway, I have used both borders (multiple) and frames but unfortunately, have now found a way to add a border and even double up the liners and then add a frame to the result. Have tried both using "merge" and "apply" but unfortunately, when adding the frame the border(s) disappear. I would be delighted to learn how to add single or multiple borders and then follow that with a frame. Of course these would be selected from the PSX Pro program. I wish that the program also allowed for the importing of .8bf files as I have frames and borders of that file type saved and have used them with another program but see no way to accomplish the task with PSX Pro. All assistance is welcome. TIA
In PhotoScapeX I'm not seeing where I can save my photo as 300, 150, 100, 75 DPI etc. Doest PhotoScapeX have that option? I have the full paid for version.
When you go to save the file you will get a pop up window, the very last option is DPI, make sure that this option is selected. Then choose the resolution you want from the drop down.
@@PrettyWebzMedia Thanks, I found another way after asking. In 'EDIT' Resize I switched from Pixels to Inches (in). Below Width (in) and Height (in) I was able to choose a resolution, I chose 300 DPI :-) thanks again
@@PrettyWebzMedia creators could provide a full video related to this and other topics. Good for the user and good for expanding the creator's channel. Creators might want to look at some of the video creators for Affinity Photo and Luminar to see how they work their customers to improve their YT benefits and the benefits of users.
are you speaking of .gif? If so, either Gif (hard G) or Jif (soft G) is acceptable. The words you used are Give as in I will give as in provide) you some help if you teach me how to Jive (rhymes with dive) dance. HTH
I don't recall all the difference but there are some although I am not fond of their clone tool. However, $40 US could be spent worse and I am sure that the developer might add more features if there was enough monetary incentive. I think about Patreons that seem willing to spend $1 per month or more to some folks garnering large incomes from YT. Thus I do use Pro. I like the program but do wish it had the Histogram and also History. The ability to use Layers for some filters would be nice but overall it has good features. Masking at times allows effects to be evident outside the masked area.
@@danjones3009 I tend to be choosy when I can. I have not updated ON 1 recently nor until Luminar NEO did I move from Luminar 3 (which I never had luck with when trying to update). I have just gone to using PSX more all the time as it is quick and efficient for my needs. I am picking up some things in the comments and will add the info to my own .rtf file I create related to any of my digital imaging programs.
I've been having trouble with the layers I put onto a JPG image. When I either Merge All layers or Save As the picture comes out very blurry. I don't know if it's a issue of the size of the JPG I'm working with or how many layers I'm putting on to it. It is for the front cover of a cassette. Any help would be coo

I am using free version.. And I am unable to get full hd image after saving.. If I add any text on image.. after saving.. the text was not sharp enough and little blur
If you are trying to upscale your image, you can go to Edit, then choose "Resize" you will get options for resampling the image in the drop down menu or you can click "Enlarge 16X (preserve details)" This will resample and enlarge the entire image, not just the background.
Amazing tutorial. I recently decided to go free photo editing or something cheap as lightroom and capture one pro has became too expensive option and specially for those who are doing it for fun and NOT to make money. Question though: Does it save edit if you open that image again? some kinda file which save edited data?
I just downloaded this software yesterday and started to play with it and quickly discovered that if you wanted to save your work (different than exporting it to Jpeg, PNG, etc), you can't with the free version. You have to pay for the pro version. That was really disappointing to me!
when you have the image edited, look at the bottom of the window and see the three dots. Click and save as project or use Alt + Shift + S. Rename if you want but save the project in the same location or select another. After that save, then Ctrl + Shift + S will allow for a .jpg to be saved. If you want to save in a different format or make other changes, use the Save as function located in the same area. I don't recall if the pro version is required but I did not think so as I used the free for awhile and think I saved as mentioned above. I normally just do the first two and sometime simply go to .jpg -- did this for some textures I saved (now if only they could be added to those created by the program and that I have not found how to do if it is possible)
Great tutorial! I'm having a problem with filling a 4x6 photo paper with the entire photo. I keep getting a white border around the photo. I thought I would try your tip on batch editing but when I went to print I still could get the photo to fill the 4x6 paper. any suggestions?
Great video, it was very helpful! However, I still don't know how to layer one image on top of another and I thought you can do it with this app. If not, any ideas which program I could use for that?
You deserve youtube award of the year. TNice tutorials video truly nails it! Very well explained... The way you cut the bullsNice tutorialt and get straight to it..
Thanks for this. Could you also tell me how do I save the file in such a way that I can pick up the edit - at a later time - exactly where I left off. And does it work with RAW files.
Yes, you can do batch edits in Photoscape but they have to be done in the batch editor tab. The batch editor has all the same features (mostly) that you get with the single image editor.
Is there no way to increase the size of fonts in the menu and submenu items? Not text added to a photo, just the text you need to read in navigating the program?
Thank you so much! I have so much to learn about the editing end of photos and this is very helpful. I will be coming back to this video regularly until I become fluent in editing! Again, I appreciate your help.
I've just Requested A Refund for Affinity Photo as you cant open 2 files and drag a image from one tab to the other. Plus in Affinity Photo under Edit theres no Select All and no Deselect All. Plus if you use the Magnifying Glass to zoom in, double clicking the Magnifying Glass wont unzoom like in Photoshop. After using Affinity Photo for 15 minutes I found it infuriating, i fell for the reviews but Affinity Photo is pretty crap to be honest. Before I spend anymore money can you tell me if PhotoScape X can do the things I've mentioned in this comment please?
Photoscape is a free software with an upgrade option that is not necessary to get a good understanding of its functionality. This program is more like Lightroom than Photoshop. I find it extremely easy to select files, zoom into images, etc. I would suggest installing the free version to try it, it’s exactly what you get with the premium version with less filters and a few other bells and whistles. Check the video description for the link to their website.
@@KainsTorment I am looking for that option too. I had it up at one time but not sure how to find it now although I think in one of the comments which I am reading before viewing the video as I have been view stuff all day long and needed a rest PWM did mention something about layers. Actually, AP is a very full blown editor with many creators of tutorials on YT. Deselect of the marching ants is Ctrl + D. I just opened my AP and in the menu bar under select the option is there and it is like most selection options on the Keyboard -- Ctrl + A. OK for moving of one item to another, this is done with the Place feature. Menu bar>File>Place and then resize to taste. To zoom the easiest is to use Ctrl + the wheel portion of the mouse. If you want a specific magnification, use CTRL + the # on the keyboard so 2 = 200% etc and to come back to full size use CTRL + zero. AP is like any program, it just takes time but there is lots of info and even a .pdf file available for d/l from either the help tab or their forums. Been a long time since I downloaded it. HTH
@@phlotographer thanks and yeah I tried Place too but it never resized properly. Affinity Photo was too infuriating to use as its not user friendly at all... I'm gonna buy Photoshop CC in the sales :)
Yes, you can use layers in the free version. You will find layer controls in the top left corner when you add images, objects or text. I use the free version of this software.
PhotoScape has a tutorial on layers here: th-cam.com/video/3RzHPBcagKY/w-d-xo.html There is no verbal explanation in this one which drives me crazy when I'm watching tutorials, lol, so I may do my own soon.
@@PrettyWebzMedia three cheers!!! for us with not great eyesight (old goat here) I too hate the dang click tutorials but my hearing is good. I too like the creators to Slowwwwww down. It is not a race. i have been trying to do something quick and easy with the Frames option but while I have found almost what I need, not quite. I have used the Borders to get the size of the inner most matte and using Merge can then add additional mattes to get to the final arrangement. I also have found a frame (I am still using free for now) that gives a white inner + a black secondary and then an adjustable background. Would be nice to be able to change the white inner to a smaller size and then change the secondary color but all that can be done is to change the outer background color whereas it would be nice to change its size. I find that with the border method and then even adding a frame, it has to use the merge command and not apply. If only using apply is done then the original white matte applied as a border disappears. Wish too that there was a tutorial on working with layers in PSX that had voice. What I would like to be able to do is to see something slowed down and with voice or at least one that use the arrows and maybe text to explain the steps and not try to do it in under 2 minutes. I do composites and take a photo with space around it on a background and then add different images of the same object and want to add the image by removing some or almost all of the background of the second image to allow it to blend nicely with the original image background and continue this process depending upon how many images I wish to end up with on the final image. I have used other programs such a MS digital image Pro 2006, Affinity Photo and would like to see the correct technique for PSX. Oh, I did try using the layers technique but when trying to erase the area around the added image, I found that the erase did not allow the background to show through but rather simply created a black stroke on the background. Not quite what was needed. Probably something simple but not so far easy to find the answer. Going to try to go through your other tutorials also. TIA
i have problems with the resizing. i remember a bind i used before but i forgot what it was rn. for example, right now, if i make the image bigger from above, all sizes extend instead of the up part only. edit : i figured it out. if you click the image, it will show some options. press preserve aspect ratio off. that's it
Is there no way to have 2 different images open at the same time and be able to edit them independent of each other? It's nice to be able to compare 2 images side by side for comparison and be able to make changes on one or the other.
Great presentation, many thanks. In my latest version of Photoscape X the menu icons and text are too big. in preferences all I can find is a switch between light and dark. Do you where I can change the icon sizes?
Hi there, I've not heard of anyone having this problem. I contacted Photoscape to see if they could tell me anything but so far I haven't received a response. In settings try purging thumbnail cache and/or resetting your settings this option is directly under thumbnail cache. I will follow up if I learn anything new. Thank you for watching!
You can add an inner and outer glow to objects in the editor. Go to the insert menu for this, this is how I create glowing effects in Photoshop. As far as adding these effects to something that's already in the image, I'm not sure. You can try adding a shape in front of the image and reducing the opacity to zero then add an outer glow. This might give the illusion that it's glowing.
Thanks for the feedback. I'll definitely consider this if I do another Photoscape tutorial. The dark color is more energy efficient for my monitor and easier on my eyes but I can see the lighter color showing up better on video.
Hi! I have been using this for a while but now I want to create a something with double exposure. Do you have any idea if you can do it on this program or I need the pro version? Thank you !
I have a video coming out in a couple of weeks about this but basically... under edit go to Insert then choose image and work with blend modes. Check back for that video next Tuesday as well if you like.
Hi there, I don't know how to save presets. I've contacted PhotoScape to get clarity on this from them and I'll update here or make a video when they get back to me. You can create an action (macro) by making all of the adjustments you want to include in the preset and click "Macros" then "save macro" this is next to the "Favorites" button right above the settings. You can replay the macro for any image. I'm sorry I don't have a better answer right now.
@@PrettyWebzMedia the biggest problem here is that when one begins an edit, one may not know it could be or needs to be used again which is where History would be nice to have. I have a few images that simply by playing I got an image I like (others might not but that is OK) but can't remember the steps I took and changed etc so a Macro would have had to be made when I was not even sure I was going to get something I really liked. A preset would be nice as it can be done at the end. O/W one would have to create a Macro for every image edit done and that just is not practical for most people depending upon HDD size available.
You can mask out parts of your image in the Cut Out tab. You can also create object and text masks in the editor. There are tutorials for this on the first tab when you open the program.
While in the viewer tab, rubber band select the images you want to merge together, then right click on the screen to pull up the menu, choose "Photo Merge" then "Focus Stacking" when the pop up menu comes up select "merge" the program should process the image automatically then save the resulting image.

It is not a race. i have been trying to do something quick and easy with the Frames option but while I have found almost what I need, not quite. I have used the Borders to get the size of the inner most matte and using Merge can then add additional mattes to get to the final arrangement. I also have found a frame (I am still using free for now) that gives a white inner + a black secondary and then an adjustable background. Would be nice to be able to change the white inner to a smaller size and then change the secondary color but all that can be done is to change the outer background color whereas it would be nice to change its size. I find that with the border method and then even adding a frame, it has to use the merge command and not apply. If only using apply is done then the original white matte applied as a border disappears.
Wish too that there was a tutorial on working with layers in PSX that had voice. What I would like to be able to do is to see something slowed down and with voice or at least one that use the arrows and maybe text to explain the steps and not try to do it in under 2 minutes.
I do composites and take a photo with space around it on a background and then add different images of the same object and want to add the image by removing some or almost all of the background of the second image to allow it to blend nicely with the original image background and continue this process depending upon how many images I wish to end up with on the final image. I have used other programs such a MS digital image Pro 2006, Affinity Photo and would like to see the correct technique for PSX.
Oh, I did try using the layers technique but when trying to erase the area around the added image, I found that the erase did not allow the background to show through but rather simply created a black stroke on the background. Not quite what was needed. Probably something simple but not so far easy to find the answer.
Going to try to go through your other tutorials also.
TIA
Hi, great tutorial, can you change out a blah sky?
Yes, Photoscape has a masking tool so you can blend two images together
@@PrettyWebzMedia I can't seem to find the masking tool, is it under the "tools"?
i have problems with the resizing. i remember a bind i used before but i forgot what it was rn. for example, right now, if i make the image bigger from above, all sizes extend instead of the up part only.
edit : i figured it out. if you click the image, it will show some options. press preserve aspect ratio off. that's it
I’m happy you were able to figure it out.
Can you do a tutorial showing how to use photoscape x pro lineal gradient? I see a tutorial on TH-cam but it’s 10 years old.
I'll add this to my list, thanks for the suggestion!
Is there no way to have 2 different images open at the same time and be able to edit them independent of each other? It's nice to be able to compare 2 images side by side for comparison and be able to make changes on one or the other.
wonder if you ever got any further info as I have the same Q. Also would be nice to have two or more images for composites available at the same time.
Great presentation, many thanks. In my latest version of Photoscape X the menu icons and text are too big. in preferences all I can find is a switch between light and dark. Do you where I can change the icon sizes?
Hi there, I've not heard of anyone having this problem. I contacted Photoscape to see if they could tell me anything but so far I haven't received a response. In settings try purging thumbnail cache and/or resetting your settings this option is directly under thumbnail cache. I will follow up if I learn anything new. Thank you for watching!
Is there any way to do lightsaber effects? I have the Pro version.
You can add an inner and outer glow to objects in the editor. Go to the insert menu for this, this is how I create glowing effects in Photoshop. As far as adding these effects to something that's already in the image, I'm not sure. You can try adding a shape in front of the image and reducing the opacity to zero then add an outer glow. This might give the illusion that it's glowing.
Hello! Thank you for making a tour of photoscape x. Can you make a video about how to use Photoscape X to make two 4x3 photos in a 4x6 photo?
Thank you and I will add a step by step to my list. In the meantime, you can add photos together with the combine feature.
you deserve like
for your hardwork
Thank you
It would be a little easier to follow if it was in the light mode. Very had to read the tool names
Thanks for the feedback. I'll definitely consider this if I do another Photoscape tutorial. The dark color is more energy efficient for my monitor and easier on my eyes but I can see the lighter color showing up better on video.
Simplest and superb content. Very easy to understand. Thnx
Thank you for the feedback, I appreciate it.
Hi! I have been using this for a while but now I want to create a something with double exposure. Do you have any idea if you can do it on this program or I need the pro version? Thank you !
I have a video coming out in a couple of weeks about this but basically... under edit go to Insert then choose image and work with blend modes. Check back for that video next Tuesday as well if you like.
@@PrettyWebzMedia don't recall seeing this video available. There are not a lot of current videos related to this fine product and few updates.
Awesome. Thank you for the video tutorial.
Thank you 😊
Nicely Explained.Thanks
Thank you 😊
Hi thank you for the video, quick question, how can I make and save a preset to use on other pictures I am a bit confused on that
Hi there, I don't know how to save presets. I've contacted PhotoScape to get clarity on this from them and I'll update here or make a video when they get back to me. You can create an action (macro) by making all of the adjustments you want to include in the preset and click "Macros" then "save macro" this is next to the "Favorites" button right above the settings. You can replay the macro for any image. I'm sorry I don't have a better answer right now.
@@PrettyWebzMedia the biggest problem here is that when one begins an edit, one may not know it could be or needs to be used again which is where History would be nice to have. I have a few images that simply by playing I got an image I like (others might not but that is OK) but can't remember the steps I took and changed etc so a Macro would have had to be made when I was not even sure I was going to get something I really liked. A preset would be nice as it can be done at the end. O/W one would have to create a Macro for every image edit done and that just is not practical for most people depending upon HDD size available.
wow! thank you so much, this helped me a lot!
My pleasure, glad to help.
I wish they had an option to erase some parts of the overlays we get in insert...like in picmonkey😐
You can mask out parts of your image in the Cut Out tab. You can also create object and text masks in the editor. There are tutorials for this on the first tab when you open the program.
@@PrettyWebzMedia a spoken tutorial for this might be very valuable
How can we blend two pictures ??
In the editor add your photo, on the “Insert” tab choose “image” change the opacity of the overlaid image and adjust as needed.
great vid! what about Layers???
I may do a quick tutorial soon
Anyone know how to do focus stacking? I've watched the tutorial many times and still can't follow it.
While in the viewer tab, rubber band select the images you want to merge together, then right click on the screen to pull up the menu, choose "Photo Merge" then "Focus Stacking" when the pop up menu comes up select "merge" the program should process the image automatically then save the resulting image.
PrettyWebz Media Thanks. I wasn’t right clicking on my Mac Book pad. So easy.
Do you need Pro version for this?
