    Using content-aware fill with smart objects

    I believe the reason for wanting to keep it a smart object is so that if I want to make changes later, I can double-click and be in ACR. Normally - before being convinced that smart objects are fabulous and by FAR the best way to edit, I'd have taken my NORMAL pixel-bearing layer, and just...

    Sharpening or similar operation with layers

    Thanks for all the replies... I just got back, so I haven't tried any yet, but I'll play tomorrow. As far as rules, I'm not sure there really are any. I wish I could go back and rewatch the seminar (I can't), because when it was explained (why you don't want to create any merged/fixed...

    Sharpening or similar operation with layers

    In a recent seminar, the presenter recommended NOT creating a merge visible layer above all the adjustment layers. The idea was that you'd open your image as a smart object, do whatever editing was needed, and everything was non-destructive..... So, open image as smart object create layer for...

    Using Refine Edge with Quick Selection

    I recognize there are a lot of different ways to get good selections. And the ones where I've seen this demonstrated use images with lots of blowing hair or fluffy kittens or whatever. I don't have any blowing hair since I don't shoot people, but I tried it on raccoon kits, and it was middling...

    Using Refine Edge with Quick Selection

    If that's the case - that I"m trying to make the refine edge (specifically the Refine Radius Tool) operate outside it's capability, I'm going to have to go find some better information on the tool... Anyhow, here's the image... My purpose on this image is to test the Quick Select/Refine Edge...

    Using Refine Edge with Quick Selection

    I'm not sure what's going on over at the Adobe Photoshop forum, but I've tried three different browsers and I can't get the Create/reply buttons after I log in. So, since life's too short to put up with whatever they're doing, I'll try here... Here's the long version: I do a quick selection...
