Home >> Photoshop Tutorials >> effects >> effects7 >> Taking Shortcuts Part 4

We will be finishing up the series on keyboard shortcuts this week. It seems as though it has taken awhile to get through them all. I recommend that, rather than try to learn them all at once, you take your time, print these articles out and use them as you need them. If you apply them as needed, the shortcuts pertinent to your everyday Photoshop work will quickly become second nature.
