USING PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 9 Filters, effects, styles, and artwork 196 Filter Gallery The Filter Gallery (Filter > Filter Gallery) lets you apply filters cumulatively, and apply individual filters more than once. You can also rearrange filters and change the settings of each filter you’ve applied to achieve the effect you want. Because you can apply more than one filter to an image when you use the Filter Gallery dialog box, you have a lot of control over the way your image is affected by each filter. The Filter Gallery is often the best choice for applying filters because it’s flexible and easy to use. A B C Applying filters through the Filter Gallery A. Original photo B. Photos each with a single filter applied C. Three filters applied cumulatively However, not all filters are available from the Filter Gallery. Some are available only as individual commands from the Filter menu. Also, you cannot apply effects and layer styles from the Filter Gallery, as you can from the Effects panel.

These options make images appear as if they were painted onto textures, such as canvas or brick, or viewed through glass blocks. Texture Specifies the type of texture to apply. You can also click Load Texture to specify a Photoshop file. Scaling Increases or decreases the effect on the image surface. Relief (if available) Adjusts the depth of the texture’s surface. Light (if available) Sets the direction of the light source on the image. Invert Reverses the surface’s light and dark colors. Improve performance with filters and effects Some filters and effects are memory intensive, especially when applied to high-resolution images. You can use these techniques to improve performance: • Try filters and settings on a small selected area of the image. • Try filters and settings on a smaller, resized copy of your image. When you’re satisfied with the results, apply the filter with the same settings to your original image. • Free up memory before running the filter or effect by clearing the clipboard, the undo history, or both. Choose Edit > Clear > [command]. • Exit from other applications to make more memory available. • Adjust filter settings to make memory-intensive filters less complex. Memory-intensive filters include Lighting Effects, Cutout, Stained Glass, Chrome, Ripple, Spatter, Sprayed Strokes, and Glass. (For example, to reduce the complexity of the Stained Glass filter, increase cell size. To reduce the complexity of the Cutout filter, increase Edge Simplicity, decrease Edge Fidelity, or both.) More Help topics “About photo effects” on page 190 Artistic filters Colored Pencil The Colored Pencil filter redraws an image using colored pencils on a solid background. This filter retains important edges and gives them a rough crosshatch appearance; the solid background color shows through the smoother areas. You can set the pencil width, stroke pressure, and paper brightness. Note: For a parchment effect, change the background color before applying the Colored Pencil filter to a selected area.
