                     25 - Create swatches from your own pictures
                                       A Photoshop Tutorial © by Sylvia DiGeorgio




                                                                                                    Fig. 2


                             Fig. 1

                       Note: As these screenshots have been taken from Photoshop CS3,
                  the settings shown on your version of Photoshop might be slightly different.


1. Open the picture you want to make a set
   of swatches of.

2. Go to Image → Mode → Indexed color.
   Leave the default settings as shown on Fig.
   3.
           If you have more than one layer,
           you’ll be asked if you want to
           flatten the picture.
           Accept the option to flatten as
           we’re going to undo this step after
           we’re done creating the swatches.




                                                                 Fig. 3

3. Now select Image → Mode → Color
   Table.

4. Click on Save (Fig. 4), choose the
   place where you want to save your
   swatches, name your file, and click
   OK to close the dialog box.




                                                          Fig. 4



5. Now open the swatches
   palette (Window,
   Swatches), click on the
   little triangle (see Fig. 5),
   and select “load swatches”.




                                                    Fig. 5



6. In the “Files of type” drop-down menu (see
   Fig. 6), select “Color Table (*.ACT), select
   the file you just created and click on Load.


                                                                            Fig. 6

7. The colors contained in your picture are now
   visible underneath the previous set of
   swatches (see Fig. 7).

8. Undo the indexing of colors with Ctrl Z /
   Cmd Z.

    You’re now back to the original picture.




                                                                            Fig. 7

You’re done! OK, so now you have a new set of swatches.



What do you do with them?
You can use them to paint new backgrounds, to adjust colors in your painting, to match colors from
other pictures.
Swatches are also helpful to keep consistency of colors for web design.
They’re also very useful if you work on portraits, one click and you have access to skin colors, hair
colors, etc.
You’ll find them practical too to adjust the color of the sky, of the grass, the ocean, whatever you’re
working on
 You can have sets for winter colors, fall colors, etc. There’s no limit to their use.



Edit your set of swatches

    ‱ To remove a color: Ctrl click (Cmd
    click) on any color in your swatches.

    ‱ To edit your set: select the
    Swatches palette, click on the triangle
    (see Fig. 8) and select Preset Manager.


                                                             Fig. 8

    ‱ To organize the sets: once you’re in the Preset Manager (see fig. 9 below), you can select the
    swatches and move them around, rename them, delete them, etc. Don’t forget to save your set if
    you modify it
