Are we allowed to use "invert" funtion for entries.
Also, is there a way to look at action setting after you choice another action. Or is there a place where it can be seen after the editing is completed. Sometimes get carried away changing the picture and forget
what I setting in my action were made. |

On invert, I would say no. One usually "inverts" a selection; selections are not allowed under the rules -- all actions must be on the entire image.
I'm afraid I didn't understand your second paragraph well enough to respond.

You can create an 'Invert' adjustment layer, which turns your picture into a negative of itself. I assume this is what Musicman is asking about, not the 'Invert selection' functionality.
This is an interesting question, since this is functionality that many cameras have. Is it OK to do this on-camera, but not in Photoshop? Or is it OK to do stuff which is commonly available on cameras in PS as well?
An interesting question for me as the 'F707 has no black & white mode, so I'd have to remove colour in PS.

Just my $.02 worth, this should be completely DPC legal if you are color inverting the entire image. You can accomplish the same with the hue/saturation dialog, and this is clearly legal.
Creating an invert adjustment layer should also be legal, since the rules state that adjustment layers are legal as long as the effect is applied to the entire image. |

To the best of my knowledge, if you are using Image>Adjustments>Invert, and are not selecting any section, but rather applying it to the whole image, it is legal.
As to you question about actions, I think you are asking if it is possible to see just exactly what steps were used in your action. If you go to WINDOW>HISTORY it should show you all the steps used in your action.
I hope this answers all your questions. Good luck!

| I have seen it used in other challenges. One guy did it to a dock scene of girls in bikinis-never did figure out why he did it though. |

would this also apply to the use of filters in PS7 as well?
since 99.9% of the filter work on the whole image would it be legal to use them?

No, the only FILTERS you can use are listed in the Rules. Basically its only the Sharpen filters, GaussianBlur, Noise, and Despeckle which are allowed.
ADJUSTMENTS are allowed, on a layer or not.
In general, Adjustments change the color values of pixels, while Filters rearrange the locations of pixels.

Sorry, I didn't make my self clear. I was press for time.
My question is.
When someone like me let say changes contrast less say +50 then I go and adjust the color. Is there a way to go back and find out what amount of contrast I made. I don't always use a set amount of contrast,hue,brightness,etc....
Maybe this clarifies my question #2.
1st question was like this
Image>Adjustments>Invert
Thank for info. |

You can also convert your shot to a negative by using curves, you change the endpoints of the line to be in the adjacent cornersof the curves grid

change the curves line from

Zeissman!! Thats Funny!! It left such a lasting impression on you?
I have no idea why I did that to the lovely "Photo-opp Babes" (*) other than I'd had my camera only a few weeks and EVERY variance look neat to me then. The guy in the picture was the "real" photographer and I kind of stole a shot while he was posing the girls. The challenge was Black and White and I guess I got carried away. Anyway, I set my personal worst score as I recall...123 of 124.
* I would have linked if I knew how without writing down or trying to remember the path. I know there must be an easy way.???
btw, Looking forward to seeing more of your entries. It has been a while you know.....David
