    Appreciate your emphasis on experimentation. So easy to discard any mess but also most pleasing to stumble onto a new effect.
    Terrific having you back Dave!

  2. Rich Stopa says:

    Great show again

  3. Nice show!!

    Gonna try Corey’s MIB tip right now! :-)

  4. Debbie says:

    Its really exciting to think out side the box and get a good result. Thanks!

  5. Teresa R. Roberts says:

    Kuler is the answer! Cool stuff today, guys. Thanks so much. Corey really is Iron Man ;) What great giveaways this week!

  6. Gerardo Palermo says:

    Cool show. Will try the HDR thing with text. Now I’m curious to see what happens!

  7. Marie Sjoberg says:

    Great show as usual, loved Corey’s tutorial.

  8. Daniel says:

    Great tips guys!

  9. Twiztedfliz says:

    Wow that MIB thing looks really cool … miss corey on planetphotoshop where he used to do tips like this i adsolutly loved…

  10. Twiztedfliz says:

    i loved the show, really like the MIB tip , miss Corey on planetphotoshop…

  11. John Content says:

    I don’t know the answer but the show was great!

  12. Joseph Myers says:

    Good to see Dave on the show again.

  13. Jayson Sanders says:

    Good stuff fellas, thanks for the tips.

    Haven’t seen a lot of tutorials on animation with Photoshop. I assume most people would use AfterFX or something else comparable.

    Never the less, using the animation feature in photoshop can be helpful for creating simple animated banner ads for the web .

    Food for thought… Cheers

  14. Bill Guy says:

    I know, I know…Export to Zoomafily

    Love watching this stuff all the time. One quick question. Would preset brushes work just a well for painting on any masks rather than the KBS?

  15. Brad Grigor says:

    beth alla i ei ddweud? chi guys graig!

  16. Floyd F Sones says:

    I believe the answer is Kuler. Thanks for reminding me about the panel settings available, Pete! Thanks, Guys, for another show in inspiring, cool tips.

  17. Tim says:

  18. RON says:

    Kuler is the answer.

  19. Great show, loved Cory’s MIB effect, very cool.

    The answer is Kuler.

  20. Larry Travis says:

    No idea. Can I still win?????
    Thanks

  21. Nathan Gowan says:

    Another good show guys, like the relaxed nature of it. good to hear you you are trying to hit home the idea of just playing around with photoshop rather than just following along with tutorials and not diversifying.

    cheers :D

    Yes i am from the UK :D

    Nathan

  22. Rick Spitzer says:

    Zoomify.

    Always a great show.

  23. PD Taylor says:

    Nice to see Dave without a CANADA shirt, didn’t know he owned one.

    Thanks for the tips..

  24. CR Douglas says:

    Been playing with the MIB tip for a few mins now with a few diff photos. Very cool! Gonna spend more time experimenting!

    Thanks guys!

  25. Pegeen Shean says:

    Great Show Guys! Thanks again!

    Kuler! –needs an internet connection! I’ll trade everything for Corey’s Book, of course, that’s if the Photoshop Academy picks me!

    Thanks again!

  26. Mitch Miller says:

    Thanks for the Iron Man site just gave me an idea for an Ipad app.

  27. Robert Norris says:

    Great show. Sounds like something called Cooler should be an internet based thing. Is it to find Cooler stuff! Nice tips and see you in Vegas!!

  28. Eduardo Fernandez says:

    good tips. thanks

  29. Gary Sydnor says:

    Perfect effects 3

  30. Great job guys!!! I always learn a lot every time I watch. and by the way the answer would be Kuler.

  31. Svetlana says:

    Cool tutorial, Corey!

  32. Robyn says:

    The MIB tutorial is really cool. I always learn soo much from your show! The tutorials and knowledge from you guys is awesome! Keep up the good work. :)

  33. David G. Yocum says:

    Okay, so I’m a little slow sometimes or you zip right through the key strokes. So I’m downloading this episode so I can watch it again. Thanks!

  34. John Dabarno says:

    It’s true that it is fun to experiment, and being relatively new to using Photoshop, I should be doing a lot more of it, thanks.

  35. Jay Luptak says:

    Great show as always! Didn’t pay attention to the fact that you can set defaults in the styles panel. Excellent workflow reminder. And I believe that it is Kuler that requires the internet connections. See ya next week!

  36. Rich E. says:

    Great show. Just got the creative cloud and can’t wait to try out all the tips you guys dish out for Photoshop CS6

  37. Karen Spearrin says:

    Cool tip Corey! And I like the new filter in CS6 too! Man, each version of Photoshop never cieses to amaze me! Love this stuff! Another great show guys! Thank you Corey, Dave, and Pete :) Love the show!

  38. Karen Spearrin says:

    I’m havin a hard time getting a real Extreme surreal HDR look like I’ve seen in PhotoshopUser Magazine. Can you do a technique on getting that surreal painterly look from tone mapping in HDR? Thanks, would appreciate it greatly! :)

  39. Tom Housworth says:

    Love being able to view in HD…..a HUGE improvement!!

    Dave, your black shirt turned out to be appropriate for Corey’s MIB segment.

  41. John Richardson says:

    Always a great show!

    Humm the answer is … the one that one that works ….!

  80. Paula Coley says:

    Having problems leaving and comment. Great show. MiniBridge. Keep up the good work. love you guys

  81. Thomas Jay says:

    Fantastic show (as usual) guys! I love the way you bend tools to do all new things that I’ve never considered trying. I tell everyone I know that works in Photoshop or is just starting into Photoshop about this show. It’s not only free, but incredibly well done and the information you guys are able to provide on a regular schedule is nothing short of miraculous. Also loved the toss-in about the Iron Man site at the end. I’m heading over to try it out right now.

  82. Love the show. I also love to exparement in photoshop and learn new effects.

  83. JOCK j says:

    Cory, I thought Ironman was a triathlon. HQ IS in Tampa area, ya know. I need some love so a prize would make my day.
    BTW , did Debbe Do Tampa????
    alohadios Jock

  84. ian harber says:

    you guys are always an insperation

  85. Corey, every time I see you doing a tip or technique I see the background on you workspace on your laptop has a pattern instead of a solid color,.Would you mind sharing how you did that in a future show, I think it looks really cool and would like to do the same, thanks.

  86. Taylor Finley says:

    Very informative as usual. I always like hearing the keyboard shortcuts that saves a lot of hassle for newbies like when holding the shift key when dragging a picture into another file to center it. Keep up the good work guys.

  87. Dana Stiefel says:

    It’s a Kuler show….

  88. Great show guys. I have a tutorial request for all of you using nik software plugins.
    After taking a photo, what is your preferred work flow? Like import raw and jpegs to lightroom, then nik raw presharpner then adjustments in lr then if needed go to ps then bring back to lr and output Sharpening.
    Also with the new 32, bit tiff support what would be a work flow?
    Basically what would be ur work flows?
    Thanks in advance.
    Keep rocking.

  89. Great show. You guys make it so much fun and rewarding to learn.

  90. Jesper Mathiesen says:

    Nice show…

  91. Ron Elkins says:

    I love the tip on the wide angle filter. THANKS

  92. Great show. I always like the quick tips and the focus of the show. I usually have the video running on my laptop and PS running on my desktop so that I can try the tip out. thx
