Coming Attractions

 

So during my sessions at Photoshop World I showed some new stuff that I had been working on. I was asked by so many if I would be posting them as tutorials on this site or anywhere else. The answer is yes. I will be, over the next few weeks, posting tutorials both here and over at the NAPP members site. So keep checking back here for the updates, and for those of you who are not yet NAPP members you can find out more here.

Also I want to thank everyone who attended Photoshop World, especially my sessions. I really had a great time and I hope you all did to. The best part of my job is meeting the members face-to-face and learning how our teaching has helped and what we can do to make it better. Hope to see you all in Boston next year!!

    Corey,
    My son attended several of your classes and really enjoyed himself. I didn’t get a chance to chat with you this year, but it was good to see you at PSW if only in passing.
    Blessings,
    Doug

    That’s great Mr. Barker! I can’t wait to see some of the tutorials! I’m sure I won’t be disappointed!

Invert to Alpha

When working with vector - created art and the source art is unavailable, modifying the art to create a logo can be a pain, to say the least—particularly when it’s flattened and the background needs to be knocked out.  A careful combination of Invert (Command - I [PC: Ctrl - I]), Color Balance (Command - B [PC: Ctrl - B]), and layer Blending Options (Control-click [PC: Right-click] the layer name) can yield simple background knockouts of one- or two-color logos without making a mess.
