    Smart Object with auto resizing

    @Alexandria - Here is the corrected mockup if you want it. I straightened out the images in the PSB file.

    Smart Object with auto resizing

    You are an expert as far as I'm concerned! Don't sell yourself short! And I agree that the way you describe is the way I would create the mockup if I were starting from scratch. It's a method that I've described many times here on the forum. Relating to Alexandria's posted mockup, I felt it...

    Smart Object with auto resizing

    So just to give you some understanding of how a mockup works, I will try to explain how the image size in the PSB file does not matter. Here I have a PSD document with a 700px x 500px canvas. I have given it a grey background. Here I have a wooden frame that I want my subject to be in for the...

    Smart Object with auto resizing

    There's nothing wrong with the mockup or the smart object used in the mockup. Don't worry about the sizes or rotation, they don't really matter. Open the PSB by double clicking the smart object layers thumbnail. Then add the "girl image" to the PSB file (drag and drop or "place embedded")...

    Smart Object with auto resizing

    No PSD file. Maybe that will explain what you're asking!!! Otherwise, I'm lost as to what you are trying to do!

    How to Control Layer Mask Default

    Hey Rich. In my searches and experience I have never heard of or found a method to change the default setting of the layer mask icon to "Hide All". It will always defaults to "Reveal All". As you mentioned, the only way to control the type of layer mask is to use the Option/Alt key while...

    VPN's - Good or Bad?

    I have always used Firefox as well but I still use all of the top search engines including Google. This forums stats have shown me that ALL of the top search engines are scraping the internet including DuckDuckGo. They all collect and collate information and images. The largest company or...

    VPN's - Good or Bad?

    Yep, I totally agree! There's really not much any of us can do. My only hope is that maybe some folks watching the VPN video will understand that they are just throwing away good money. I will say that I can't hold it against anyone for at least trying, you just need to be selective in how you...

    VPN's - Good or Bad?

    I found this interesting! For years now I have advised against the use of VPN's without really knowing details other than I have always known that VPN's do not protect you from tracking and they really can't hide your location despite what they would have you believe, though I admit they make it...

    Tool Issue - Ps showing processing wheel/Cursor.

    No................if you reset your Ps prefs from step 3 in post #10, then this is not a setting issue. Other than those we have already tried in post #6 and post #10. I have read that this was a known bug and Adobe never addressed it. The problem for most, was solved by upgrading Ps. I'm still...

    Great! Is this something you can work with?

    Tool Issue - Ps showing processing wheel/Cursor.

    OK................we can rule out that this is not a specific tool problem. I've found several references to this issue but none really offer a solution other than what I have posted. I am curious as to when you discovered this issue. Can you comment in details of when you first noticed it. Is...

    Tool Issue - Ps showing processing wheel/Cursor.

    OK, what is the "Smoothing" setting on your Brush Tool? In the Tools Option Bar at the top of the document window........not in the Brush Tool panel!! Set it to 0% Under Preferences > Performance/Options...........do you have "Legacy Compositing" ticked ON? If not do so.

    Tool Issue - Ps showing processing wheel/Cursor.

    Yes, I noticed that the OP was having the same issue with the Clone Stamp and the Brush Tools, based on their screen photos, so that's why I felt that the video I posted would cover the issue since it was not really a tool problem. But I agree that you should be accurate in using the proper...
