How do you use and create paintbrushes? I've heard that many people can create stunning graphics in Adobe Photoshop without the use of filters, but I'm not experienced enough with brushes to know how to do so.

Here's one, I have Photoshop 8 CS (PC) and it none of the shortcut keys work. Why? Also, I use the web photo gallery batch command frequently and it doesn't look as robust as the one in PS7. I also have Photoshop 7 and it works much better IMO. What is new in CS?

with regards to keyboard...CS has a new customizable keyboard shortcuts..so if you have been tweaking it, chances are you have set shortcuts which you could not remember. And maybe out of memory (RAM) too...?

 

what new in cs

 

1. increased price

2. increased memory consumption

3. new features----> http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/features.html

 

I downloaded the trial version of CS before (took me ages to download that). I personally like the new Text on Path feature. Its much easier to place proportioned texts on curves and those hard edged areas. Still I love PS7 very much...It runs well on my system unlike CS which crashes too often.

Okay, I have a question... Is it possible to *only* erase a specific color? Or set of colors?

im not sure..I havent actually used a full version of CS so I cant tell the difference.

why not pour those colors out as a separate layer so you could easily turn that color off? You could also use channels and masking options.

See...I have no idea what you just said I just got Photoshop last friday...

i see...ok heres a simpliest way to safely erasing or turning off your colors (by using different layers...we will start with this image..

 

 

refer to image below: on your layer pallete press 1 to add a new transparent layer

 

 

make sure that the current editable layer is your new layer. (just click on it) now use the brush tool to add color on certain areas you want. lets say you will use red color..

 

 

same procedure to rest areas you want to color (new layer>color)

 

 

if you want to turn a color off just press 2 (refer to image #2)..if you want to change it..simply delete it and create another transparent layer then color.

much easier way to select group/single colors: open an image: then, select "SELECT" -> "Color Range..."a color range dialog appears: use a the "eye dropper tool" (lower right) to select colors -> just select and click the eye dropper tool to the canvas to select color.: to add colors use "eye dropper tool w/ +" -> then select and click( you will notice the change in the preview pane)then hit ok all the colors you select is now selected
