Hi Matt:
Speaking of
“You can’t have enuff shortcuts” I add an international touch to your tipp:
1.) If you keep pressing cmd+[1-7] the apropriate panel opens and CLOSES
2.) you can do the same on the left panel too:
just throw in the crtl key => so cmd+ctrl+1 opens / closes Katalog
=> diabolic, isn’it`??

Corey’s tutorial:
My white lines weren’t picking up any of the background colors. Even when I switched the blend mode to Color Dodge nothing happened. Anyone else have this problem?
Thanks

This F.A.D. is really fantastic…. (can’t really find a word what I feel !)… I will definitely replace my “High pass” sharpening with the “FAD” ! Thanks Calvin Hollywood !
To the Photoshop Guys, you really rocks ! I’m waiting for each show ! Thanks you all !
Your Contest button is not working??? Where’s RC when you need him
The Pen tool Does NOT accept Pen Pressure
Great show guys!
The F.A.D. technique is really interesting! Calvin also “discovered” a really cool SKETCH effect with the new Divide blend mod in Photoshop CS5. Here his technique:
1. Duplicate the layer
2. Change blend mode to “Divide”
3. Filter -> Blur -> Gaussian Blur (Radius 2,0)
4. Add a Level adjustment layer, then move the dark slider to the right to darken the picture.
5. Add a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer (Saturation -100)
And… that’s it!
The answer is c. Pen tool
