    cool! this is really helpful. Just a hobbyist, toying with PS, and this is going to be a nice timesaver.

    great tutorial. thanks..i always wondered what “hard light” was used for. I never found a use for it.

    Thanks for the tutorial Corey, another great one. I have used a picture of the theatre I perform in to add several images from my 365 day project of ‘Derek’s Beard’. This image is for the milestone of 100 days and I have four different vanishing points on it. Made easy with your help of course.

    I guess I am doing something wrong. When I copy and paste my picture and click on vanishing point, I get my grid, but my pasted picture will not move. Please help!

    Thank you Corey – a very useful tut!

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.
