It’s Tip Tuesday, and today I’m answering Firgs request to demonstrate why RAW is better than JPEG when it comes to adjusting White Balance. This video continues the thread started in yesterday’s post on using RAW vs JPEG. In the video I demonstrate white balance adjustments in both Lightroom AND Adobe Camera RAW. Check it out:
It’s Tip Tuesday, and I thought I would extend the conversations started yesterday about my last YoutTube video preventing unauthorized printing of your Facebook photos. Lots of people weighed-in on comments, Twitter & Facebook, with suggestions ranging from “Don’t post your photos online” to “That’s why I watermark my images.” You should checkout the article written by Terry White on how you can further protect Facebook content by using Lists. Today’s video tip demonstrates how to make a quick watermark on an image using Layer Styles while adjusting Layer Fill.
Be sure to watch for the #TipTues hashtag on Twitter, and join me again for next week’s video.
Yesterday, Janine Smith posted a Photoshop tutorial over on TipSquirrel entitled Cubism. If you don’t know Janine, she’s an award-winning photo restoration artist, and MUCH MORE creative than myself. Before you watch my video, be sure to read her tutorial. (That’s where you’ll find the PSD file Janine created that I use in the video) It’s a great idea, and I wish I had thought of it. Being the Photoshop technician that I am, I quickly broke down the steps to come up with Cubism 2.0. That’s the great thing about Photoshop–talk to 100 different experts you’ll get 100 different methods to accomplish the same task. Thanks to Janine for being this morning’s Photoshop inspiration. Enjoy!

On Monday, February 15th, Sandy Norton delivered a presentation on using Facebook as a business application for DFWSM. I was unable to attend, but understand there was some valuable information. By popular request, here is a quick video tutorial I created for #DFWSM members on how to set the default landing page for your Facebook business pages.
Good morning everyone. The following Photoshop video tutorial breaks down the advantage of using Curves versus Levels. Choose Levels to make sweeping changes in the shadow, midtone & highlight areas. Choose Curves for more refined control of the overall tonal range. Checkout the video to see a demonstration.
