I don't even know what the hell
a layer mask is ... LMFAO, this is wack.

Anyway, this is what I got.
No one told me that you had to
change it so that the duplicated
layer can't be seen for this to work.

You can try this, its what i do

Make sure that the layer that u are working on is unlocked.
go to EDIT>STROKE>and from there u can choose the color and thickness in ur border

ya i know i followed it but the background just goes kind of dull theres still some faint color there

 

[kdwallace]

Are you desaturating it? Or just reducing the saturation.

To make it completely black and white is a one click process - image>adjustments>desaturate.

If I was trying to do what you did up there I would do image>adjustments>hue/saturations and move the saturation slider down a bit - although if you go right to the left it will still go completely black and white.

Maybe u got one of those faded brushes to desaturate the parts that u dont want in color. Try using a hard edge brush (one of 1st one's as u open ur brushes)

and i also noticed that when i saved it as a new pic in PS, the level was all the way to 12, try saving it at 6...

maybe that's what keeping the color from going black and white

How do i download the fonts and save the fonts to my computer so it will be in PS

 

[dunk kid]

I think i know why its doing it i just cant figure out how to fix it. In the guys on first page showing how to do it, his layer thing looks like this with white background and black when you paint in. In mine its white too but when i paint on the layer thing it is grey even though i am painting with black, does anyone know how to fix this?

mine is same but grey for some reason

go to a font website.
unzip it.
go to CONTROL PANEL.
click APPEARANCE AND THEMES.
on the LEFT there should be a folder called FONTS.
open it and drag the new font in there and you're done.

[numberr97]

how do you clear the background of a photo.like make the background completely white?
aim: numberr97

 

[kdwallace]

^ just do the same processes as if you were making the background black and white but paint over or fill the background layer with white.

You'll have your image left on a white background.
