Here the Miz shows us how to conduct “Photoshoptic Surgery” on an image of a tractor with some dull/flat colors. Here we learn how to use curves and the photo filter option to really bring out the colors and saturation in Photoshop.

Here’s my first impression on flick panning, a new feature added to CS4.  When you click, drag, and release, the image glides and slides all over the place.  ME NO LIKEY OKAY!?

I found the answer already, after I recorded the screencast, of course. It’s so easy – just go to: Edit->Preferences->General and then uncheck “Enable Flick Panning”

When you’re making a quick selection in Photoshop, a lot of times you will realize that because you were feeling so lazy the selection really came out like crap.  The edges are jagged and fringed, and basically look like crap compared to if you had actually used the pen tool and done it the right way in the first place   Either way, sometimes you just feel like being lazy.  This method show how to defringe a fringy edged image.  The Miz’s photoshop video tutorials are always a great resource to all photographers, graphic designers, and Photoshop users alike.

Another Photoshop video tutorial by Robert Mizerek.   This is a good one for this time of year.  Here Bob illustrates how to use an adjustment layer to turn a green tree into a “fall” looking tree with bright autumn foliage.  Right now in New England the trees have all peaked, and the leaves are falling.  If you have shots of trees or landscapes from the summer, you can still make them look bright and amazing.   The Miz’s photoshop video tutorials are always a great resource to all photographers, graphic designers, and Photoshop users alike.
