    This is a thread for anyone who uses the older photoshop programs, up to and including Photoshop 7. There are separate threads for Photoshop CS and Photoshop Elements.

    In here, you can discuss the program, how-to's, ask questions, etc.

    All of the normal board and forum rules apply in here. If you're not sure what they are, check out the Fan Art Forum Guide.

    Enjoy!

    When that screen comes up click OK. Then you can type in the settings for the channel mixer.

    Just click OK on it. It always comes out whenever you have to work with layers ;)

    ETA: Shazza you got here first :p

    BTW, I've PS 7 too and today I can't seem to open it at all. Once it comlpletes the uploading it shuts down and the application disappears :confused:. Am I the only one with this kind of problem?

    That's the problem. I've already tried it twice. Think I'm going to uninstall it and reinstall it ;).

    Thanks, anyway :p

    Mine locks up sometimes after the uploading thing. Then I have to control alt delete to close it out. And then I just reopen it. :)

    I tried that tutorial though and after following all steps my icon came out really red. I couldn't get the red out, so I had to adjust some more. Maybe the cap wasn't dark enough. :lol: It was more too yellow than anything else. :lol: But, now I know a little more about playing with the coloring, so maybe that'll help in the future. :D

    Ok thanks everyone for the advises, but yep my pc is just idiot and I'm not going to solve it. Maybe I got a virus or maybe not, still my pc doesn't know how to work properly. So I won't have PS for a while ;)

    It might be a corrupt font on your computer, have you installed any new ones lately perhaps? Other than that I'd also suggest reinstalling it. If that doesn't help maybe try resetting your preference files. :)

    Thanks again for trying to help me, but I just learned it's my pc. So yeah there won't be any possible solution for this problem till I'll work out things with my pc ;)

    Ok I have never looked for tutorial on Wallpapers and I just googled for some of them. I also came to the conclusion that they're kinda the same as icons making (I mean it terms of coloring and how to put the texture on it), though I found a couple of tutorial which may help you with some special effects ;)

    Hope that, at least, it can help you in some way :lol:
