>>>Photoshop's or Photostyler magic wand function works very well. I am doing a
stop motion video in which I have to replace the background. I only wish this
programs implemented a "batch" or script mode like DeBabelizer to make it easy
for us animators to deal with this type of problem. A related problem is this.
I have hundreds of frames (already rendered and or video captured) in which a
color or 2 need adjustment throughout (batch mode please!). The workaround is
to change one file lowering the saturation or whatever, then creating a
paletted file, then using Alchemy and -f(forcing the palette) of all frames to
that particular file.<<<
Ahh, one of the great things about the Amiga that I miss on the PC. The Amiga
has a great batch language called AREXX and most all programs support it.
Programs like Art Dept. Pro and Image Master on the Amiga do Photoshop type
operations and support AREXX. You need batch operations for video/animation
work and Photoshop being geared toward print is sorely lacking.
