Hey everyone, I'm having a problem with my images i work with in adobe. my problem is that my pics always look pixalated... even if i make them bigger at first and then shrink them down.

 

I'm also having a problem when i shrink the image down the lineart goes out of whack and changes from pure black to random shades of grey

 

 

 

Here's an example of what im talking about

 

 

 

 

Any and all advice would be greatly apreciated

 

 

 

Thanks in advance

All i can think of is that you aren't zooming in enough...

 

 

 

you can change the color back, its quite east but i am not on the mac atm... and i don't remember the button :wall:

 

 

 

anyway gl with fixing them up... i would

when you start messing around with the image dimensions of course the image will become distorted, it's easy as pie to work so I personally can't see how you're having so much trouble with it.. Im having troubles figuring out what exactly you're having problems with..

 

 

 

 

 

If your working in a small canvas and want it to look bigger photoshop will distort it as it's not usually used for pixelated art, it will atempt to smooten the image automatically.

 

 

 

if your trying to make pixel art, I suggest you just use paint because you're obviously finding it too hard with photoshop. if not.. then use a brush tool on a larger canvas.. ??

 

 

 

that help?

No I'm trying to take larger images and shrink it down to a smaller version, a trick used to hide smaller improfections and help get rid of the pixilatedness(that even a word?... lol) but in the process its changing the lineart in unexpected ways. Also every color is on a different layer so the colors arent blending when they shrink. It's just the black lineart

random shades of grey is because you have anti aliasing on
