Photoshop Tools: This section is a comprehensive Toolbox reference. Click on a tool's icon to view its video manual
Portrait Toning Adjustments
Sometimes the lighting for an image is just a little bit off. Perhaps it's unbalanced, or there's a shadow, maybe an unwanted highlight... You can use Photoshop's Brush tool to even things up.
Bleeds and Crop Marks from Photoshop
Page layout programs, such as InDesign, and illustration programs, like Illustrator, can easily handle "bleeds" and can automatically place crop marks. In Photoshop, you can use Print with Preview's crop marks and bleed options, or you can create the crop marks manually.
Printing Separations in Color
It's easy to see individual channels in color in Photoshop's Channels palette--simply select "Color Channels in Color" in Preferences> Display & Cursors. But what if you want to print the channels in color, say as samples for a screenprinter?
Select Hair by Using Channels
Selecting fly-away hair can be one of the toughest assignments in Photoshop. The Extract command can be helpful, but sometimes the easiest way to select those random strands of hair is right in your Channels palette.
Compound Paths: Creating a Gear
Photoshop's Pen and Shape tools are incredibly powerful tools, especially when creating complex compound paths by intersecting paths. To see how this works, let's create a gear in Photoshop.
Color Picker Versatility
The vast majority of the time, the vast majority of us use Photoshop's Color Picker in the default configuration. Perhaps we use Custom Colors to select a spot color, but when using the Color Picker itself, we ignore the eight optional modes. (What? You didn't know that the Color Picker has different modes?)
Eliminate Noise with the Color Replacement Tool
Although it's not the purpose for which it was designed, the new Color Replacement tool in Photoshop CS is an incredibly efficient way to remove digital noise from photos. Paint away noise quickly and easily!
Photoshop Vector Shapes
Last week, Alexandro Colorado emailed me asking why Photoshop creates a mask when making shapes with the shape tool. I told him that I would explain the reason why the best I could.
