NEW Photoshop GRADIENTS instantly blend images

[@photoshopcafe]

I apologize, I made a boo boo. At 1:11 make sure Reverse it on in the toolbar written steps are here: photoshopcafe.com/how-to-seamlessly-blend-faces-into-background-in-photoshop-using-new-radial-gradients/

[@RoyBlackwell]

Now works as demonstrated. Thanks!

[@j.t.creations7048]

Wow.... This one missing step was breaking my brain! LOL. I just couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong. Thanks for the fix. I binge watch your channel on my free days.

[@Joserodriguez-lt3el]

Apologies but I am still struggling on these step. Please help.

You prove it over and over week after week that keeping it simple works best, thank you Colin you really are the Master

[@photoshopcafe]

Great to hear!

[@photoshopcafe]

I hope you enjoy this. The rainbow tutorial is coming tomorrow, you don't want to miss it!

[@leonard187]

OMG I’ve been searching for a way to get this done for three weeks now. Thank you so much for all of your hard work in Photoshop and Lightroom and here on KZbin making all of those countless hours of video tutorials to help us all with learning Photoshop and Lightroom. I have been a huge fan of your work for 10 years now. Again thank you for all of your hard work and dedication in teaching us all about PS & LRC

[@photoshopcafe]

@@leonard187 Thanks! You're welcome

[@divadmottram]

are some of the steps missing as when you start the gradient you see the head and the gray box has gone this is not happerning for me unless i invert the layer mask from white to black

[@the_creative_frontier]

wow wow wow ...By far the best I have seen !!!

[@JoeHTX]

Thanks Colin! I learn something new every time I watch one of your excellent videos! I use masks a lot but never even thought of using a radial gradient on a mask in the technique you demonstrated here. It will come in very handy in the future!

[@cfr1205]

One of your better tutorials. It's kind of like special effects which I love. Thank you.

[@totalmonkeyspeed260]

Excellent tutorial, concise and helpful, thanks 🙏

[@TheNewMexicoMan]

This is exactly what I have been trying to do to combine a sequence of a barrel racer going between barrels into one image. You made it simple and seamless! THANK YOU! ! !

[@photoshopcafe]

yay! I don't know why I didn't think of using radial gradients sooner :)

[@TheNewMexicoMan]

@@photoshopcafe I am glad you did! Your content matters. Your creativity opens up all sorts of amazing possibilities! 😃

[@FranklinCretton]

Another Like from Brazil! Helped me here!

[@bobolinklisa]

That was very enlightening. So much easier than selecting the subject turning it into smart object, then getting rid of the background then creating a gradient. The background is lost and you will never get the same results. Thank you for that.

[@-441-]

Short, Sweet, and just what I needed in this moment in time!!

[@donovanw.2943]

Thanks!

[@photoshopcafe]

Thanks so much! I really appreciate it :)

[@TauqeerAli-q4r]

You Made my Day..Thanks for this Tutorial..much needed

[@Pomdaddy]

As always awesome! What a great way to use the radial gradient tool. I have always used the regular gradient to blend with masks, but this is a game changer. Thanks Colin!

[@photoshopcafe]

Glad it helped

[@Graphicxtras1]

Love the new gradients feature as well as masks, created lots of designs using it. A very flexible use of the tool

[@shutterbug49]

This is fantastic! I have struggled with masking and gradient blending. I will be using this technique for sure. Thanks for the tips.

[@photoshopcafe]

You are so welcome!

[@fidelrodriguez7964]

Superb! Awesome.! Thanks so much Colin!

[@steffore1]

Excellent 👍🏽

[@janecooper4243]

It’s so nice to see how far you’ve come over the years from Photoshop World. I remember you being on the floor in the exhibition hall selling your videos. Great job!

[@chasebros4948]

I’m glad they finally added a gradient tool to Photoshop. I wonder if they will ever give us the ability to create elliptical/oval radial gradients like you can in Illustrator using the gradient tool. The setting is called aspect ratio.

[@PhreddCrintt]

Wow! WOW!!! Thank you Colin!

[@photoshopcafe]

Glad you like it

[@gopimk3122]

thank u

[@koolmom2]

[@photoshopcafe]

Thanks so much

[@cbrandwijk1880]

This is asome. May i ask where can i find the gradients you use in this video. Have you make them yourself?? 😊

[@photoshopcafe]

The foreground to transparent is a default under basic

[@lisam9233]

Incredibly useful for the photo collages I create 👍🏼

[@photoshopcafe]

great

[@chriskay3058]

I've been looking for this exact thing. Something simple and easy to understand, even for a novice such as myself. Cheers !

[@photoshopcafe]

Glad to help, I like to keep my tuts simple when I can

[@sandramcmillan-cato5206]

[@Zebrajellyfishphoto]

Useful!

[@bh8365]

Useful. This will be an enjoyable attempt for me to try.

[@photoshopcafe]

Have fun

[@richmonlightsandsoundvlog9921]

Fantastic

[@dktraveller8364]

I think you missed a step at the beginning and some people may get confused if they follow your instructions. We must create black layer masks or invert the normal white layer mask. We must set the foreground colour to White not black. Please let me know if I have that right. Thanks for your videos.

[@TiloVentures]

Great little tip.. thank once again for your continued passion and great content… 👍

[@photoshopcafe]

My pleasure!

[@snoopaka]

Thx

[@photoshopcafe]

So glad to hear

[@luisabreu9271]

Nice

[@photoshopcafe]

Thanks

[@tyeeggleston6159]

great video. I love the video, but It seems like everytime i try to follow what you are doing my PS does not show the same exact panels and does not do what yours does, is there some way to reset PS back to factory defaults?

[@photoshopcafe]

Yes, hold down alt+Shift+Ctrl while launching photoshop. You might lose any custom presets though, so back those up first.

[@EricaDyson]

Was it useful ? YES. Did I learn sthg new? YES. Thanks!

[@billlodge6070]

Excellent tutorial as usual Colin, can this be done in CS6?

[@adnana7331]

I really did not do it perfectly until I checked reverse box coincidence , Thanks sir and god bless you

[@alanvandever9683]

Clever.

[@VISUALIZERSffm]

excellent audio

[@photoshopcafe]

Glad to hear! I did some processing (compression) to it, wasn't sure if it sounded good.

[@TomaszTwojFotograf]

Great veideo as always - my gradient tools is disapiring and i can't grab it and adjust - where can i togle the visibility?

[@Dennis-cl7ov]

Top Shelf Colin !

[@photoshopcafe]

Thanks

[@capnpooter]

New to me. Better try it out..See you in a couple hours..

[@photoshopcafe]

New to me too, it just occurred to me to try it and see what happened :)

[@SqueakyWeasel247]

I wish there were some way of it remaining live after closing the doc. Does working on smart objects make a difference?

[@RoyBlackwell]

I am missing some step(s). I have tried to duplicate this technique without success. I have written out the steps. About 1:17 you click on an image of a woman, the image disappears but as you drag the radial gradient, she come back into view little by little. When I click on an image, it does not disappear. Any chance of getting a step by step guide in PDF format?

[@michaellucks1642]

Question re gradients being baked in on closing file: does it remain editable if layer is converted to Smart Object?

[@carolbell4550]

Colin thank you so much for this. I have been looking for something like this where I can put my butterflies. Only thing is I have no flying butterflies! There is so much to learn and so little time when you get old......

[@photoshopcafe]

Thanks!

[@leniehulse1621]

Good one Colin! I was not aware that you couldn’t edit an image which has been rasterized and saved.

[@photoshopcafe]

You can, just not gradients in masks

[@ebarav]

thanks Colin , great only one snag I encountered , using windows and photoshop beta when using the gradient tool , the centre dot and circle radius ( at 1minute 27 seconds on your clip ) , when I do this and release the mouse they vanish so cant repositon ,, am sure its some stupid box I haven't clicked , but cant find it . \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\keep up fantastic work

[@photoshopcafe]

I'm not using the beta here but the shipping version

[@RoyBlackwell]

I am using Windows and Photoshop beta, and all is working ok for me. Note the new comment from photoshopCAFE about making sure Reverse is checked.

[@gregwoolliscroft6255]

It looked complicated..I must try it...
