Wednesday Inspiration

 

You really must check out Scott Kelby’s blog today. On Wednesdays he has a guest blogger and so far he has had Vincent Versace and Joe McNally. Well, this week I am thrilled to see that the guest blogger is John Paul Caponigro. John Paul is, without a doubt, one of my favorite photographers and Photoshop gurus. I had the chance to actually chat with him at the last Photoshop World in Orlando and what a treat it was. He is really a great guy and an awesome Photoshop teacher. I love his lectures because he talks from a deeply emotional and philosophical standpoint. This is evident in his guest post, which is titled: Making the Visual Verbal. It’s an interesting read on verbalizing your images through words, both written and spoken. If you are a writer, or aspiring to write, don’t miss this post. Check it out here.

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).
