Color Index

I just bought this great book called 'Color Index' by Jim Krause. It's basically a book full of color combinations, over 1000 of them. It's the designer's dream. It has two, three, and four color combinations, and shows them side by side and with a pattern to see how they look together, then it gives the rgb, cmyk, and hex codes for the colors. It also has little tidbits about color use, etc. and some info about web color. Great book, cost me $25 at barnes & noble, only $17 online.

Here's a link

The other images that were provided, luckily, had their own clipping paths so they were not an issue. I've used this process numerous times before (which is why it was frustrating when it didn't work!),...

The curvature continuity "smoothness" of the shoe shapes needs to be cleaned up.

The problem you're facing is one I face all the time. The easiest solution is to create a clipping path in photoshop. You haven't missed any steps, it all starts because transparencies and spot colours...
