I was also stuck at step 7. After half an hour I finaly got it. My paint bucket tool (to fill the picture)
was still at the pattern mode (from step 2) instead of the ‘foreground’. I’ve filled it with black
and finally it worked! I think this is the main issue over here.

Hey I’m having trouble with steps 6 I create the alpha channel and I do the that thing where
only certain parts of the face are selected and its all black. In the videos you use some short
cuts on your keyboard to make the black disappear. What do you press?
I remove the background, then I cant do step 7 and make it look like that. Can you e-mail me and break down
those steps? Please and Thanks

begginer says:
May 7, 2009 at 11:12 pm
well, I have already discovered how to simulate perfect blending and colorization in ps
elemnts 6
1.blending
In step 7 you have to change layer mode to linear darkness (it’s my translation from polish, I don’t know how
is this exactly named in english version) and then you’ll see exactly the same effect as in the picture
illustrating this step.
2.colorizing
To avoid colorizating model with gradient blending (what’s not avaliable in pse) you just have to use simple
soft brush to colorize the layer with model.
And that’s all I hope I helped a bit all of ps elments users. I would be thankful if you could add some
remarks for pse users in step 7, to help them succesfully achieve the complete effect

Hey Johnson,
I’ve been having trouble with creating the alpha channel in step 6.
“Ctrl+left click on the Red channel layer to load selection of those bright areas. Click on Create New Channel
to generate an alpha channel and fill it with #FFFFFF.
Using Soft Brush tool of size 100px and color #FFFFFF, paint away the grey background behind the model.”
I get up to ctrl left click on the red channel and the selection is loaded then i create a new channel and i have
trouble from there.
I was hoping if it were okay if i had a step by step on this section for dummies *blushes* i kinda had trouble
with the video tutorial on this section.

Okay, so I dragged the red channel to the create new channel button and then I got a red copy
channel, I painted the background white like you said.. Then I did Cntrl+left mouse click to load
the areas.. So far all good, then select > inverse and then I went back to the layers tab, only the
original white background of the image was still there.. I created a new layer, filled it with a color I liked and
did the gradient overlay thingie.. I have no idea what went wrong with the background.. Anyway I tried
something different, I hid the original image layer and THEN i got something similar to your example.. So I
skipped step 8, the enhancing of the colors, it wouldn’t do any good cause I hid the original image and this is
the final result:

Hi Arika, when you switch back to the layers tab, you will need to inverse the selection (Select
> Inverse) before you fill the color
Hi Sandra, yup you did right actually. Or you can also try dragging the Red Channel layer to hit the Create New
Channel button so you will get a new channel call Red Copy. Then paint away the background with white. This
10steps.sg/…/color-effects-with-alpha-… 19/25

Actually you are pretty close to getting the effect. See if the steps below helps:
Ctrl+left click on the Alpha Channel to load selection. Go to Select> Inverse. Back to Layers tab and create a
new layer. Fill the selection with any color on that layer.
Right-click on the layer and choose Blending Options. Activate Gradient Overlay and choose the preset
Yellow, Violet, Orange, Blue. Set its angle to -45 and scale to 150.

In this case, fill your selection on the Alpha Channel layer (shown in your screenshot) with Black. You should
be getting something that looks like a negative.

Hi all,
Thanks for trying out the effect.
I’ve replaced the diagram for Step 6 with a flash animation. Hope it can help everyone

I created an alpha channel, but like Kayne – I can’t seem to brush away the dark background.
Any ideas?

Hi Kanye,
Thanks for your support to the tutorial.
Did you manage to create an alpha channel as shown in the Step 6 diagram?
