    VPN's - Good or Bad?

    I never knew anything specifically about VPNs and never gave them much thought. But internet privacy—or its lack—has always been a major concern of mine. Rather than employing complicated technology like VPNs, my instinct is to go the other way and avoid the on-line world as much as possible. If...

    Tool Issue - Ps showing processing wheel/Cursor.

    @IamSam posted a helpful solution to your question. For any future questions you may have, I'd like to point out that you have committed the same error as you did in your post from last year. You say "Pen tool" when you really mean "Brush tool". In your second attachment, you clearly have the...

    Pasting an image onto an image

    Find a suitable registration plate image and copy/paste it as a new layer above your car image. Temporarily reduce the layer opacity of the registration plate to about 55% so that you can see through it. Use the Move tool to position the top-left corner of the plate into position. Go to...

    Does Anybody Know What This means?

    I'm using Photoshop CS5. When I activate the Info panel and hover over a spot on this green swatch, the section of the Info panel that displays CMYK values is showing those values with an exclamation point after them. Normally, CMYK values are indicated as percentages and display a percentage...

    Can someone explain the difference between Photoshop sizes?

    There are a few things going on. First, when you open an image in Photoshop (a "normal" RGB image), Photoshop separates the red, green and blue pixels into separate channels, which you can see in your channels palette. So right there, before you've touched anything, the image is now three times...

    Help with changing colour

    Some additional thoughts. The "color" blend mode—and pretty much every other blend mode—will always interact with the layers below it. In the image below, I created a black-to-white gradient and then placed a band of pure red on top of it, where the red band has a blend mode of Color. As you can...
