    ok plug your favourite plugins here.

    Interesting post at the start of this thread, and I have to say Mr Hoogle has nailed some of my favourite plugins. Topaz Adjust - I have the bundle but use Adjust at least 100 times more than any of the other bundled plugins. I actually used Adjust > Simplify on a client wine bottle tonight...

    Non-destructive techniques in Photoshop

    Heck. Multiple drives are a no brainer nowadays. We had that glitch a couple of years back with the Taiwan floods, but drives are very affordable, as is RAM. Big tower systems are great for cooling and expansion, and external USB3 drives are easily fast enough to be fully usable. (I am...

    Non-destructive techniques in Photoshop

    Noise - using the 50% grey layer set to Overlay.

    Eye Candy

    You make a good point regards reflections, but the could be added manually after using layer styles. Thinking back over the years, there have been some outstanding plugin sets, like the Koi Power Tools, Mystical lighting, Eyre Candy and Flood, but my versions have not worked for several...

    Enhancing/Changing sky color

    There's nothing in the original to work with, so 'enhancing' the image is not going to work. If you have any blues at all in the sky, you can enhance them in Adobe Camera RAW using the HSL tab, and darken the blues, an increasing saturation for the blues. If already open in PS, you can do the...

    Looking for an image

    How on earth did you find it? Did you just use a description of the image in Google, or what?

    Change your Adobe password

    If you have a Creative Cloud subscription, Adobe had forced a PW change. Same thing for using the Adobe forums. This is the same ID you use to access your account which contains serial numbers and downloads, for any products you have bought directly from the Adobe online shops, so crazy not to...

    Multilayer exporter for Photoshop (Tool)

    But there is already such a tool built into Photoshop - Duplicate Layers, and chose New document.

    Illustrator Pen tool problem

    The - (minus) icon deletes an anchor point and the add anchor point does exactly that, but not on the end of an existing path. You need the work path selected (so you can see it) and with the pen tool selected, hover over the end of the path until you see the Chain icon (bottom left in the...

    Eye Candy

    Even Steve Caplin uses plugins, and one of the ones he uses is a chrome effect. Possibly this one! You might argue that it is wrong to use Quick Select and Refine edge, because you might lose the skills you used before they became available. In actual fact, chrome, gold, metal etc. are super...

    Tutorial 3D text

    I wish I was still young enough to be able to ask that question. As to the graphic, that is really nice work and a lot of talent went into creating it. I am not saying it is hard to do, but visualizing it was most of the job. Yes you could use PS 3D tools to make an extrusion from the front...

    Poll What are your favorite Photoshop video tutorials?

    With Lynda.com and Total Training on the list, there should absolutely be Video2Brain, which has much better content than either of the afore mentioned. That is especially true for a lot of the regulars on this forum who would learn little from most of the Lynda.com and TT tutorials. OK the...

    Photoshop or some other vector drawer like in flash?

    I think you can go a long way just by understanding the different pen tool icons. Most of these automatically change with context, so when you see the icon, you know what's going to happen when you click. Together with the Ctrl (Cmd) key to spring to the Selection tool, and Alt (Opt) keys to...

    Adding an image onto a block of flats.

    Whoops. I did say it was 3.30am. It's now 8.30am and I am typing this with my eyes closed. :cry:

    Adding an image onto a block of flats.

    Rather than cut out the windows, I'd be inclined to use an Image Map to apply the flag to the building. I'd have a go but it is coming up to 3:30am here.

    Digital MP3 Player concept

    Yep. Where's that Steve Jobs when you need him? Bless his heart. Nice concept, and very well executed. I partularly like the highlights on the upper edges of the curves

    Photoshop or some other vector drawer like in flash?

    Do you realize that you can actually reshape a Work Path in Photoshop much as you are describing, by placing the Selection tool cursor on the path between the points?

    How do I get this soft light effect on my photos?

    OK, here's something that will illustrate what is going on (not that anyone here needs to :rolleyes: ) Copy and paste the grey bra lady into Photoshop, open a Curves layer and move the lower point to the right to reset the black point to a proper level. Open another Curves layer above the...

    A Halloween Paper Toy

    Wow. The little boy is incredibly life-like. Do you, by any chance, work in the movies doing CGI?
