Inspired by Hollywood

For the longest time, Apple has had a page on their site devoted exclusively to movie trailers. It’s a great place to get some Photoshop inspiration because there are a lot of really cool poster designs. You may even see something cool in the trailers themselves. The site has just recently been redesigned and has a boat-load of new HD trailers for current and upcoming movies. Check it out here. At the very least, it’s one heck of a time killer.

Viewing and Basking in your Image

When I’m done working with an image, I like to sit and admire it (hey, I spent six hours working on it, I should). To do that, I hit the Tab key, then hit the F key three times. This hides all of the panels and toolbars and lets you see the image by itself surrounded by black. To get back to regular mode, press the F key and the Tab key one more time.
