Ok im very puzzled.

Am using Lightroom 3.5 and CS5 Photoshop.

I have just produced a photo in photoshop that when using adobe CS5 the skull and crossbones is shown in the background. Once its resized and downscaled the image behind dissapers.

Any ideas????????
 
I'm puzzled too. Is "the skull and crossbones" something you've created or loaded into CS5? And when you say "the image behind disappears", what is the image behind? Is it the skull and crossbones? And what exactly is it behind?

Could you say step by step what you've done and what happens?
 
Only thing I can think of, if you used layers, the skull and cross bones are hidden?

I may be totally wrong....:thinking:

Let us know what the problem was :thumbs:
 
Yeah sorry i haven't explained it very well. What i did is put a can in front of the screen which had the image of the skull and crossbones on it, i then edited it from a cr2 file to a jpeg in Lightroom 3.5. Then i imported it to photoshop and then put my border around it and then saved it again and then saved it and used it.

If you go to my site you can see the image on my Facebook page. (make sure you like my page aswell :-)

Basically the black overpowers the white in the background but when you look at it in photoshop or Lightroom it is very exactly how i want it, but out of that its dark and different........... Any ideas atall???????????

This seems like the same problem a lot of people have, where they're working in the one colour space in Lightroom and/or Photoshop, then saving the result out in a different colour space. If you're creating JPEGs to upload to the web then you always want to save as sRGB. In Lightroom you set this in the Export dialog, usually in the File Settings section. I don't use Photoshop CS so I can't tell you where it is there.

You didn't give a Facebook URL but I managed to hunt it down via your TP Profile and your website. Looking at the photo there, it looks like it could be a colour space problem, or it could simply be a levels problem. In Lightroom you could drag the Fill Light slider up a little to bring out the skull and crossbones. But if it looks OK in Lightroom, then I'd say it's more likely to be your colour space settings.
