Adobe Releases Photoshop Express

 

Adobe has finally released the much-anticipated Photoshop Express. It’s the new web-based image editor that provides some basic correction tools, remote storage, and interactive galleries for your digital photos. No, this not a complete online version of Photoshop. It simply brings the very best tools for image correction and makes them available to anyone with an internet connection. The interface is very intuitive and I think you will find it a lot of fun. The best part is that you can upload your images, correct them, set up an online gallery and then access these from any computer with an internet connection. Just log into your account and Blammo! Signing up is free, so what are you waiting for. Oh, and to get you started off right, my buddy Matt Kloskowski has put together a free online training center covering all these new features. Go forth and enjoy!

    I tried it and I was not impressed. It reminded me more of Google’s Picasa than of Photoshop. I guess the sharing aspect with all of the sites is good but I tend to use Kodak which is built into Bridge for that purpose.

    It would be helpful to mention that as of now Photoshop Express is only for US-only residents.

Create A Composite Layer

If you have a multilayer composition and you
want to apply an effect to all the layers at once, don’t flatten the layers–use a composite layer instead. Hide the layers you want excluded, and press Shift-Command-Option-E (PC: Shift-Ctrl-Alt-E). A new layer will be created at the top containing a merged copy of all the visible layers.

Another option is to create a new layer at the top of the stack and make it active. Command-click (PC: Ctrl-click) each layer you want to include to make those layers active, as well. Press Option-Command-E (PC: Alt-Ctrl-E).
