Making Cool Effects with the Gradient Map Adjustment in Photoshop

If you’re looking for a really easy way to remove color from a photograph and replace that color with sort of a gradient (or solid) hue overlay, you’ve come to the right place. I actually just wrote another post on this topic and I thought I’d follow up here to remove all the fluff and […]

Can Illustrator Files be Imported into Adobe Photoshop as Smart Objects?

I saw a few forum posts out there today where people were asking if they could somehow import vector graphics from Adobe Illustrator into Photoshop. In one such question, a user asked if they could import the graphic and then manipulate it inside of Photoshop, as if it were still in Illustrator. Meaning, moving anchor […]

Using the Old Style Photo Adjustments in Photoshop

Did you know that you don’t have to use adjustment layers in Adobe Photoshop to make non-destructive adjustments? Yes, it’s true. We can now make adjustments the way we used to by using the Image > Adjustments menu item. And the best part is, Adobe recently gave us a way out and is now allowing […]

Quick question: My Canon Rebel T6i apparently only takes video in .MP4 format. I need a video in .MOV format to upload to iStock photo to try to sell some stock video footage. Last night, I imported my video file into Adobe Photoshop and attempted to export it in .MOV format. There were no options […]

This is one of those text effects that you’ve always wondered how to do, but never quite figured out. It’s pretty easy and I’d say it’s as flexible as it gets, if you incorporate Smart Objects in to the mix. All that’s needed to pull this effect off is to write out some text in […]

How to Clip an Adjustment Layer to an Individual Layer in Photoshop

Applying adjustment layers to image layers in Adobe Photoshop is super helpful and super easy to do. Applying adjustment layers to individual layers in Photoshop is just as helpful and almost just as easy. All it takes to “clip” an adjustment to an individual layer is an additional step. The benefit of clipping an adjustment […]

How Do I Create an Album Cover in Photoshop?

Question: I’m trying to recreate an album cover with some of my own pix in photoshop. I’m a complete beginner so I’m trying to run before I can walk! I’ve made a start and have zillions of layers. Suddenly I realised that maybe I should have measured the size of the album cover eg perimeter […]

Do Smart Objects & Smart Filters Grow File Size in Adobe Photoshop?

The answer to this question is yes, converting a layer to a Smart Object in Adobe Photoshop substantially increases the file size for whatever it is you’re working on. A lot goes into making something non-destructive and you certainly pay for it with disk space. So, just how much larger does a file become once […]

Can I Add a Filter to a Transition For Video in Adobe Photoshop?

The short answer to this question is yes, you can use a filter as part of a transition while editing video in Adobe Photoshop. Actually, you don’t need to “add” the filter to the transition. You can leave the traditional transition out of it and just use the filter itself. Transitions from video clip to […]
