HELP - Calling all photography/photoshop experts!!!

[Kenzo]

Arrrrrrrrrrhhhhh! I don't bl88dy believe it (in my best Victor Meldrew impression!) I took loads and loads of snaps at Chats with my Sony Digital Cam on Multi Burst setting (so you get a nice clean shots on moving images) which this professional photographer adjusted it to for me, so downloaded them onto Photoshop last night and I've got millions of little but wonderful photos on one slide/frame, thought I'd be able to click onto one where it would then expand and print/save but it wont!!!!!!!!! all my snaps are wasted and totally useless...help is there anyway of just selecting one where it will pull through individually?

That sounds weird. If I'm imagining it correctly, you've got one file with lots of small pictures on it. It depends on the resolution of the file whether the individual pictures will be OK if you copy and paste them into individual files. Is it a big file?

If you use the marquee tool (top left of the toolbar) to isolate one image then do EDIT-COPY. You can then go to the main menu and do FILE-NEW which will open a window giving some dimensions. Just click OK because it automatically opens a blank canvas at the size of the image in the memory that you have copied. Then in the new window click EDIT-PASTE and it will drop in. You then have to open WINDOW-LAYERS and in the menu off at the side by the arrow go to FLATTEN IMAGE. You can then save it as a JPG or whatever format you want. (By the way I use a Mac but assume Windows Photoshop works the same way).

If the image was really small at low resolution this may not look any good but if the file was humungous it should, although it sounds a lot of work to do them all.

Maybe someone else knows why they are all showing on one file, I'm afraid I don't.

Thanks Tamz, I'll give that a go this evening, the pictures that I took on normal settting (ie of something still) were fine and came up as one big normal picture on photoshop, but the ones where I used multi burst same up with about 15 little individual ones (all slightly different at 00.5 of a second etc) which filled the page, I thought I'd be able to select one and then print if off normal size. I tried editing it so I chopped one down, saved it but when I try to re-size it, it goes all blury....

Thanks for your advice though, much appreciated.
