Photoshop Top 40 with Deke McClelland #20 - Free Transform

In this tutorial Deke shows how to use the very powerful Free Transform tool (Ctrl+T) or (Cmd+T) to Scale, Rotate, Skew, Distort or Match Perspective images in Adobe Photoshop.

As powerful as Photoshop is, there is little about the program that is obvious. Case in point: How do you rotate a layer? Right-click on it and select Rotate? Choose Rotate from the Layer menu? Click on the Rotate tool? The answer is no, no, and no. Fortunately, there's the Free Transform command, which rotates the active layer and much, much more.
