Cool New Course!

 

A new course was just recently released on the Kelby Online Training site by John Paul Caponigro. It’s called Atmospheric FX. This covers some of the coolest effects that are featured in his book, The Adobe Photoshop Master Class. These techniques can be used to enhance your photos, or can even be used in an illustration. That’s what I really love about these techniques; that they have so many uses. For those of you who don’t know of John Paul, he is an author as I mentioned, but he is also a remarkable photographer, a Canon Explorer of Light, and an Epson Stylus Pro. He is also among the who’s who of Photoshop instructors at Photoshop World. Click here for info on the course and you can find out more about John Paul at www.johnpaulcaponigro.com.

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).
