Silver Efex Pro Control Points – An Apology

29/03/2012

In one of my previous tutorials on Silver Efex Pro I may have given the impression that I wasn’t too impressed with control points, I think I may even have used the phrase “I don’t think the control points work very well in SilverEfex and never use them!” Oh dear, what a muppet. I was, of course, wrong and its not very often you’ll hear me say that according to my wife and I apologise for misleading you. That isn’t to say that they are a panacea but they are pretty damn good. [More]

Introduction to 3D features in Photoshop CS6 (beta)

22/03/2012

Photoshop CS6 is now available as a beta release from Adobe Labs, and it is nothing short of amazing. It will take a long time to work through all the new and improved features, so today, I’m focusing on the one area I’m most excited about: the 3D engine. 3D in Photoshop keeps getting better, and the developers have taken things up several notches with this new release.

The Eyes Have It.. LR4 Brush presets

21/03/2012

One of the things I have noticed since using the Lightroom 4 is that my adjustment brushes that I created for LR3 just don't give the same results as they used to. The reason for this is that the adjustment sliders have changed since Lightroom 3. The clarity brush is a perfect example for this, as the clarity slider is now twice as strong as it was in Lightroom 3. [More]

Using Non-Linear History in Photoshop

16/03/2012

The History panel within Photoshop is something most users have made us of in their workflows. One of the most common things I see happen with beginners is accidentally erasing History Steps (aka History States). This generally happens when someone clicks a Snapshot not realizing that can erase History, or more often someone chooses a previous step and does something new. If you add non-linear history to your workflow that's a quick way to keep as much of your history as you've set in your preferences. Enjoy! [More]
