About Eric Renno (435 Articles)
Eric’s background in video editing with Adobe Premier led to his interest, and then obsession, with Photoshop. Starting TipSquirrel.com as a hobby he is proud to have gathered together and be a part of The Photoshop Nuts.
Known as only “TipSquirrel” for two years, Eric ‘went public’ when he was a finalist in The Next Adobe Photoshop Evangelist competition. He’s also been a finalist in Deke’s Techniques Photoshop Challenge.
While still taking on some freelance work, Eric has recently become a Lecturer at Peterborough’s Media and Journalism Centre where he enjoys sharing his knowledge as well as learning new skills. This realisation that he loves to teach has made Eric look at altering his career path.
There once was a liquify tool,
Which at first did seem pretty cool.
It made models so thin,
but that sickly look’s in.
Overuse it and you look like a fool.

I wish I could clone myself sometimes – I’ve such a library of images to touch up, there’s not enough time in the day 😀 Although I admit I’ve got a history of procrastination – always wanted to be a “pro” at something 😀
I am such a Photoshop groupie with my Adobe Camera Raw in a Lightroom filled with brushes!!
Thanks for all your great content!
Your consistent tutorials are a great refresher to the various procedures in Photoshop like using the Clone Stamp tool.
Might have to wave my Magic Wand, so i can win this, lol
Just got Photoshop for my birthday! LOVE IT!!
I tend to be rather liberal, but every so often, I want to say, “Hear this Tory! Brush aside your preconceptions.”
The last time the internet asked me about to touch tool, my girlfriend objected and was a little RAW. she didn’t think that kind of thing was appropriate, especially with the lounge curtains open during the day. Her tone curve implied that, if i was going to partake then i should wait till evening and not be in an exposed Lightroom. Elements of what she said were fair and to highlight priority of her sensitivity and in an attempt to placate her i gave her a lovely image of the two of us I’d brushed up which led to a real noise reduction.
My favorite photo subject is anything I can reduce to its most graphic Elements… as long as it’s SFW, that is!
I am a new user of Photoshop Elements and really am enjoying. I look forward to reading tweets from @TipSquirrel every day.
The blur in the cover photo is great, love to learn that one.
Love the cheap cost of elements and all the things it does for the price….thanks for helping me use it to it’s ability!
omg i have to share and comment? that is annoying
i commented and i shared and i still couldnt read this article!!!
Adobe Photoshop Elements with Adobe Elements are a perfect combination for a working photographer.
Sorry to put you through all this Maria. I understand your annoyance but here’s our thinking….
We are a free site, we do it for love and a little publicity, so that’s why we asked you for the share. The comment is so we know you entered and can put you through to the draw.
Like’s, Pluses, Pins and Tweets are our currency, and for all the Photoshop Nuts give to the site for free, I think its a pretty good deal?
Photoshop bright and clean
My monitor dirty and dim
The nib cries all night
My favourite of the many tools
Available in PS
Is the dodge and burn tool
I use it often with success.
Clone this, heal that
