I'm trying to adjust an image, a .png file. What I want to do is a gamma adjust, to lighten it.
In the past, I remember a program, I think it was called Core Image Fun House, or something like that, for doing that sort of thing; but that program is no longer around. I did find some quartz composer transforms, including a gamma adjust, but that opens in Quartz Composer, and that will not actually let me supply a file to the transform. However, it tells me that I can use the transforms in Photobooth or iPhoto. So, try photobooth -- but as far as I can tell, that will only start with a camera picture, and I can't give it a file. So, try iPhoto. And ... how in the heck are you expected to use iPhoto / what does it actually do? In any event, I was able to drag the image in, apparently putting a copy of it into the library, but then I could not actually apply the quartz transforms. But I did find, under Edit, sliders to adjust colors. I was able to get a "good enough" version, and then tried to save it. Err, Export it. But the exported was a copy of the original, without any of the edits. I cannot believe that a simple "apply this quartz filter", or "apply this color profile as an adjustment" (there is a lighten, and a darken, color profile for simple gamma adjusts), is this hard to do -- what simple tool am I missing? --- Entertaining minecraft videos http://YouTube.com/keybounce _______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list [email protected] http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
