GIMP is an open source program that does virtually everything Photoshop does but it is free.DEMenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12272548876225890267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615439901164697685.post-13699093791630791072015-07-05T13:14:23.357+01:002015-07-05T13:14:23.357+01:00I use a scanner for my tiles not a camera, so I ca...I use a scanner for my tiles not a camera, so I can't help you, sorry...<br />I like your tile!

The only thing about that, that I don't like is that scanning always make the colors lighter then they are in real life.Anne's tangle bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16734518453194763311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615439901164697685.post-13596933933736568792015-07-02T20:05:10.969+01:002015-07-02T20:05:10.969+01:00Thank you for your advice, Oooo yes, there is an e...Thank you for your advice, Oooo yes, there is an editing program on the mobile now you mention it and it looks like there is a white balance thingy in there.

I use a scanner at the end - so put it in the computer and then I play with things if it does look gray. I am sometimes jealous of those with a phone camera who can take steps in their creations ... but then there are so many issues that you raise. Do you use an editing program at all? "levels" or maybe "white balance" can make a difference. Thank you for joining in!!<br /><br />~ Diane Clancy<br />www.dianeclancy.com/blog/2015/07/my-diane-caroliens-y-h-a-challenge-entryDiane Clancyhttp://www.dianeclancy.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615439901164697685.post-23064532159349123032015-07-02T16:52:04.190+01:002015-07-02T16:52:04.190+01:00"Make sure it is set up for black and white&q..."Make sure it is set up for black and white" Doh! Why didn't I think of that! I have a camera that I am able to do that with and would use it the setting solves the problem however I normally use my iPhone to take the photos.

Suggestions -- play around with lighting options and other settings. Like whether or not to use flash. My camera lets me choose whether it's a distant shot, text, daytime or evening, etc. Try them all and see what turns out best. Maybe you could actually focus more lights on the piece. Make sure it's set up for b/w and not gray-scale??? Also, I remember the angle changes the dimensions, but your dimensions look OK.<br /><br />I really like the choice of patterns here.ecsheltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12293929411197730097noreply@blogger.com
