honeylimeco Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 (edited) I have about ten stock images that I want to place my poster images on but I'm having trouble figuring out how to copy the shadow that's over the frame. I want to place my image and then put the shadow back in. Is there a way to do this? I have Photo, Designer, and Publisher but I'm trying to do this on Photo.

PixelPest Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 I´d take 2 rectangles; 1 for the frame including the fake shadow shape and 1 smaller for the frame content. Adjust color/blur and transparency. Maybe this will work your you: Cheers Move Along People and honeylimeco 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Just replace the image I have with yours, you may need/want to change the size of the rectangle I used as a mask. Basically. I just masked an image and placed it under the stock image which I set to darken. That preserves the shadow.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
