Hi, I’m a complete amateur when it comes to Photoshop and this is probably basic stuff to most of you but I’m having trouble with this :
when working with silkscreen you use sheets (not sure if this is the right word, I’m Dutch); for every colour another transparant film with the design in black lightblocking ink.
I’d like to work like that in Photoshop too, so for instance I open a photograph and with adjustments->threshold I turn this into a black and white picture.
Then I’d like to be able to just turn the white bits transparant and I’d like to be able to change the black bits into any colour I choose, without painstaikingly selecting everything by hand.
Can someone please give me a step by step explanation how to go about this (since the help-file didn’t help me at all on this. Probably my fault, but I did try first)
