Photoshop: Where Imaginary Coins Come To Life!

Probably because it appears to be in higher relief that you would normally see on a coin, and higher relief than the lettering.

I'm on a mobile device, so the only way to transfer a picture from app to app is to screenshot it, crop it, and paste it in the other app. Repeat that 20 times and it lowers resolution quite a lot. As for why I was transferring, the photo editing software I used was a bundle of apps, not just a singular program. Also, the optimizer did a number on its quality.

Nope. That's what I get from 3 free apps.

I created this $100 silver certificate with Photoshop about a year ago. The first photo is the design that was never implemented/printed. I took it and made it look like it would if one existed. Unfortunately, I was never able to finish it because I lost all the Photoshop files. This one was a copy I luckily saved halfway through.

I do essentially the same thing. Most everything I post is captured with and edited on my phone. I currently have three different free editing apps:

Photoshop Express - has the primary editing functions such as crop, rotate, exposure, contrast, temperature, etc. It's a really good app.

Sketch - I use this for combining Photoshopped images into a single side-by-side image and adding things like text, drawings and arrows.

Round Photo - exclusively for circle-cropping (or even elliptical cropping)

For images like this, I've used all three:



Of course, I also used the CCF optimizer to reduce file size (by nearly 90%) so, I guess it went through four different programs.

I used to use Photodirector for editing but eventually realized it was severely downgrading output image resolution when saved after editing. If I wanted better, I'd have to pay, so I dropped it.

The three apps I use all have their own galleries for saved edits so, I'm not taking screenshots between steps. Sketch has its own in-app gallery so I have to export images to my phone's gallery where I can open them with other apps.

Something's not right if you have to use screenshots between steps to move to another app.




Looks normal to me.

The Mint did that last year.



Wow, Eisenhower with hair!

That's odd. I use Photoshop express and can't seem to have it directly saved to my photos. (In the bundle was also Photoshop Mix and photoshop Fix.) (Photoshop mix is where I combine to two images)

I created a new topic in the Photography forum to try and figure out your dilemma. I posted the saving process as I see it for PS Express and Mix.
