    How useful are tuts for older PS versions?

    Welcome, Harnarky! As for shortcuts: I have to disagree with Erik a little bit here (as much as I admire and drool over his art!) Everyone works different, and I'm a keyboard person, so I LOVE shortcuts. Not that I memorize every one (who can??) but I do memorize the ones I use most. To...

    some slicing questions....

    Yep, I too would like to see an example. It does sound like you have some slices that can be combined, but it's impossible to tell without seeing them. As for the 1kb "images" I assume you're talking about empty spaces where you don't want images. You can turn those into non-image slices in...

    Corel products

    You can get Corel products that are no longer available on their web site ("old" versions...but not ancient;just back one version) on Corel's ebay store. Some of the products: Painter 7 (upgrades & full), CorelDraw 10 (upgrades and full); KTP Effects, Knockout 2, Bryce. I just got Knockout...

    Dreamweaver, GoLive vs text editor?

    Joy, I've never had a single problem upgrading (this is how I got Photoshop in the first place). But... it's important to do some research. Read the product description carefully...look for "new in box" or something to that effect. Also, be sure you're not bidding on an academic version. If...

    Dreamweaver, GoLive vs text editor?

    I use GoLive and BBEdit. I'm using BBEdit more and more now since I'm mostly building pages based entirely on cascading stylesheets. When you don't have to code tables, it's a LOT easier :) (Life is too short to hand-code tables!) That said, I like GoLive, because of its tight integration...

    Improving this page...

    realneed4speed, when optimizing images for the web, there's always a tradeoff between small file sizes and image quality. Different people have different methods; here's how I do it. In the Save for Web dialog, make sure you have the 4-up showing. Then in one of the windoids, show a gif, in...

    Logo comes out blurry

    It looks like you have some beveling going on there, which by its very nature introduces some blurring. Either lose the bevel, or give it a 1-pixel bevel with a small distance.

    Would you pay a small price to learn?

    Mark, may I make a suggestion about this topic? Put it in the Photoshop General forum also. I'm not sure if you can mirror a topic in phpBB, but if you can, it would be good. A lot of people are missing this because they never visit Other Interests.

    "Unsharping" reduces sharpness

    I agree, it's impossible to see what you mean exactly without seeing the image, but I suspect you may be seeing slight halos, color shifts and artifacts, which make the image look blurry. One trick to prevent this: After you fool with the image, but before doing the Unsharp Mask (which...

    Saving Animation

    girlvixen, I'm not familiar with Paintshop Pro, but if it does save an animation that originally were jpg frames, my guess is that it first converts them to gifs. It's not a matter of what an application supports; it's the file format itself. JPEG does not support animation; GIF does...

    Black and White images with colour parts

    Bubble, I hope I can answer your question Once upon a time... When you first opened an image, you have a history "state" in your History palette (at the top). You then add a brush stroke, type some text, apply a filter, etc. etc. Each of these adds to the image's history. You set the...

    NEED HELP ASAP - Project due!!

    Phenomenon, does this only happen in PS, and only in the Save for Web? I you save the file by some other means (like Save as: JPG) does it do the same thing? And, does your monitor display the same behavior in other apps? If it's only in PS, particularly only in Save for Web, it's most...

    Black and White images with colour parts

    You can also desaturate the entire image, then brush on color on a new layer, set to Color mode. This preserves luminosity while adding the color of your choice. If you want to show the original colors, use the History brush.
