    dithering breaks up banding that can? occur in areas where the tone gradiates. The dither is like noise or dots that breaks up the bandin or stripe like appearance.You may not see much of a difference on screen but dithering will help for printing.Dithering is also used when compressing in the gif format to minimize posterization. This is not a formal definition, but one of observation.

    What does dither do? Everything that I’ve tried it? on shows no difference.

    you are too limited in background color with this method.. isolation to transparent would be better.. event to make subject suitable? for any background color.

    Excellent explanations! What if I want to make? the background green?
    How can I isolate the hair properly, in this case maybe the magic wand is not the best for this. Or I can turn the background green after the ISO 800?
    Thanks

    We have over 7 hours of video training? in the Pindora’s Box-Glamouring edition package, that covers all this and more.

    I’ve been trying to do some pinup and glamour shots. Trying to get the white background has been kicking my behind. I tried your technique, and it worked well. I just had trouble with the hair looking bad. I didn’t have your ISO 800 action and that may have been the problem because what I tried didn’t? work very well. I had to go back to my old method because the photo was for a customer.
    I’m looking forward to viewing your other videos.

    I love Photoshop and your videos have really helped me!? But I dont know what I have done but I cant shrink or either make the picture bigger…..I could do it befor, but I guess I pressed some button or somthing. can somebody help me! plz!

  37. photoshopmama

    Thanks! If you think this is long…beware of some of my others! ha! I do know I’m long-winded with my vids–but I’m a stickler for the details. I’m always trying to be aware of not leaving things out. I know that can be grueling for the more advanced user or? others who can digest a faster feed…but it is what it is and will continue to be.

    You’re right, It is lighter than original but the print does show definition, and works well as an illustration. Sometimes, depending on your monitor profile? and your platform, images online will appear lighter or darker, too! Usually for Mac it looks lighter and for PC it looks darker.

    all look fantastic but the skin looks lighter after all. look at her left thigh. it? seems disappeared. loss of color after all… just my opinion

    Thank you! I have a passion for it and I’m grateful to be able to do it and make ends meet! And this wouldn’t be possible without all of you who view my videos and like them! Thank you all for rating, commenting, adding to favorites…and letting me know? you are learning and appreciate the vids–what you do is just as much appreciated by me, too!
