When you have selected your layer (which you intend on being one colour) cut and paste it into a new document and make it grayscale, (settings should be resoulution: 200, colour mode: greyscale) Paste it into the new document then make it a bitmap, (output: 200 Method: Halftone Screen) click OK. For halftone Screen settings(frequency 55, Angle :25, Shape: ellipse) Click OK, then save as a tiff. Your settings should be (Image compression: LZW, Pixek order:Interleaved, Byte order: Macintosh) and that’s your tiff that can be brought into Illustartor and recoloured in any colour.

Syntax overContext.blendOnto( underContext, blendMode, offsetOptions ); - overContext : A CanvasRenderingContext2D - underContext : A CanvasRenderingContext2D - blendMode : A string with the blend mode to use, e.g. 'screen' - offsetOptions : [optional] JS Object with some/all of the following keys: destX, destY The X/Y location in the 'underContext' to blend onto; both default to 0. sourceX, sourceY The X/Y location in the 'overContext' to blend from; both default to 0. width,height The size of the box to blend; both default to 'auto', blending up to the right and bottom edges of the 'over' context. Width and height may less than specified if there is not enough space on the over or under contexts to fit the blend. Use // Likely an 'offscreen' (not in the DOM) canvas var over = someCanvas.getContext('2d'); // Usually a canvas that is shown on the page var under = anotherCanvas.getContext('2d'); // Blend all of 'over' onto 'under', starting at the upper left corner over.blendOnto(under,'screen'); // Blend all of 'over' onto 'under' (again), starting at 17,42 in 'under' over.blendOnto(under,'multiply',{destX:17,destY:42}); // Blend a 16x16 tile from 'over' onto 'under' (again), starting at 17,42 in 'under' over.blendOnto(under,'add',{destX:17,destY:42,sourceX:32,sourceY:128,width:16,height:16}); Supported Blend Modes The following blend modes work perfectly (or as nearly as the vagaries of the HTML Canvas allow): normal (or src-over) screen multiply difference These blend modes mostly work as intended, but have issues when it comes to dealing with the alpha channel: exclusion - very subtle color differences (slightly too bright) under limited circumstances. src-in - the output of this blend mode is slightly different from the effect of applying the transparency of one layer as a mask to another; the difference only appears in low-opacity areas, however. add (or plus) - Photoshop's "Linear Dodge (add)" blend mode does not perform addition on the opacities of the two layers. I have not yet figured out what it does instead. For now, this mode performs simple numeric addition, the same as the SVG 1.2 "plus" mode. lighten (or lighter) - the result is slightly too dark when the opacity falls and incorrectly 'favors' a higher-opacity source. darken (or darker) - the result is too dark when combining low-opacity regions, and does not properly 'favor' the higher-opacity source. overlay - this is only correct where both the over and under images are 100% opaque; the lower the alpha of either/both images, the more the colors get clamped, resulting in high contrast. hardlight - this is the opposite of "overlay" and experiences similar problems when either image is not fully opaque. colordodge (or dodge) - works correctly only under 100% opacity colorburn (or burn) - works correctly only under 100% opacity Requirements/Browser Support Tested on Safari v5.0, Chrome v8, and FF v3.6. Should work on any user agent that supplies a CanvasRenderingContext2D along with getImageData and putImageData. About This library was created around the need solely for a one-off 'screen' blend mode to match the company-mandated style for bar graphs used internally, previously only available via a Microsoft® Excel® template. Clearly this functionality is useful in more contexts than just my one-off, so I decided to make a framework around it and encourage others to help figure out the formulae. Please, fork this project, add blend modes and/or fix math, and send me pull requests! I feel certain that the resources must exist out there on the equations Photoshop uses in the presence of alpha, but so far I have not found them.

If you’re a user of our design applications such as Photoshop and Illustrator, you know how you can create very cool effects with blend modes. An Amazon search returns many books and a Google search on ‘photoshop blending tutorial’ returns more than 200,000 results. This points to a very widely known and used feature.

The interesting value of the Swatches palette is the ability to load custom swatch collections, so you can quickly access to specific colors without having to remember any numeric color values.

HyperDither is an OS X image processing utility that converts color or grayscale images to 1 bit black & white using a sophisticated dithering routine. Specifically, HyperDither implements the “Atkinson” dithering filter. Years ago, during the development of the first Macintosh, Bill Atkinson (of HyperCard, QuickDraw, MacPaint & now nature photography fame) discovered a very elegant dithering filter to convert greyscale image data for the 1 bit black & white Mac video display. The dithering produced by this routine was much higher quality than the now-a-days ubiquitous Floyd-Steinberg or “Error-diffusion” filter (used by QuickTime, PhotoShop).

Coming to the Layer Styles, I found a lot of styles on the Web to download but none of them were of the today’s trend of Web 2.0. So here is a set of 131 Photoshop Layer Styles I created in .ASL ( Photoshop Layer Style ) format. As explained in the below image, I feel this set of Layer Styles could be the fastest way to create Web Elements like Buttons, headers, Content Backgrounds and a lot other stuff…

Adjusting your photographs to get the color 'just right' can be a chore. Think about this: The Old Masters of painting spent years of their lives learning about color. Why let all their effort go to waste on the walls of some museum when it could be used to give you a hand with color correction?

To clarify, this is an easy fix if you have saved your png files from Photoshop and, of course, still have access to the software. I stumbled across this fix in PS and haven't tested in any other applications.
