Embed Your Message Into Your Photos

 

As you know, your digital camera embeds background info into your photos (called EXIF data), and Photoshop embeds its own info when you edit the image (called File Properties). However, in Photoshop CS2 you can add your own info (called IPTC data) in the IPTC area within the Metadata palette in the Adobe Bridge. This is where you might embed your copyright info, website, or other comments that people viewing your file might find important. To add your info, just click next to any IPTC item that has a Pencil icon to the right of it, and a field will appear where you can enter your own custom info.

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).
