Re: [Photoshop-beginners] Learning Photoshop CS

After you have selected the area to change, use the fill tool.

JohnW,

 

Thanks very much.  How do I set the background color please?  I tried selecting the area to change using the magic wand, then clicking the background tool and nothing happens.  Please take me step by step.

 

Thanks again, I am really lost and I do need the project.  As you described it would be very similar to the Target logo but it has a cross in it too.

 

John D.

From what I understand of your description, it looks like target. If so,
then it is simple. Set Gold as your foreground color, and select the fill
tool, select the white you want to change and it will be filled with gold.
Do the same for the red, set foreground to red and select the black you want
to change to red and it will be filled with red. If I understand your
description correctly that will do the job.

I am a new member just joining and I hope to learn how to use Photoshop CS.
When I look under "Help" then "About Photoshop..." it just tells me it is
version 8.0 just so you know what I am working with. I would appreciate if
someone would help me with this please?

If I have a circle that is 500px in diameter white with a black border and
inside of that is a circle that is 450px diameter centered inside and black
with another circle centered inside it that is 350px in diameter with white
inside. All layers have been flattened I believe because in the Layers box
they show only one layer. In other words I have a tiny black circle border
then a small (50px) white inside of it then the 450px black circle inside
that with a 350px white circle inside that. I'd like to make that first
50px white inside circle gold instead of white.

I hope that description is understandable, I'm not sure how to describe it.
Can someone please tell me how to change the white to a gold color and maybe
the black inner circle into red or something.

I'd really appreciate your help, I am not very knowledgeable with Photoshop.
Thank you, John D.
