Q: How do you print the grid?
Put the non printing grid on how you want it, then take a screen capture (alt + Print Screen on

itand print.
Q: How do I slice up an image in Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended?
Well, I just got Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended and I saw that there is no slice tool. I found
that kind of strange. I mean, that is a HUGE tool. All master web designers use the slice tool
to make their websites which is what I need it for. So could someone please tell me how I
slice an image in Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended?.
Q: How to achieve Black/White with Color Detail?
use the lasso tool to carefully select the elements that you want to retain as color you may
even want to feather the selection by a couple of pixels if it looks better. Once you have these
selected, invert the selection so that everything except the eyes/lips are selected, then
desaturated the layer.
Q: How to Unlock Background?
Click on IMAGE go to MODE and select GRAY SCALE (if the PDF or JPG is black /
white), and go back to the LAYER and double click, that will unlocked, if do not, go back to
IMAGE and select RGB color and double click, that would do it. Click on IMAGE go to
MODE and select GRAY SCALE (if the PDF or JPG is black / white), and go back to the
LAYER and double click, that will unlocked, if do not, go back to IMAGE and select RGB

Q: How do you create an artistic border?

Open any image> 2. Make a selection using the ?rectangular Marquee Tool? (M) 3. In your
layer pallet> add a layer mask 4. Then go to Filter>Brush Strokes>Sprayed Strokes and play
with the stroke length etc. You can apply other styles too.
Q: What is a Smart Object?
Photoshop CS2 introduces a new type of layer called a Smart Object layer. Smart Objects are
a little like symbols in Illustrator. Smart objects can consist of pixel-based content or vectorbased content, like an Illustrator drawing placed in a Photoshop document. With smart
objects, you can make multiple copies of a single object and all copies will be updated when
one of the copies is edited ? but you can still apply layer styles and adjustment layers to the
individual smart objects without affecting all copies, which provides for a lot of flexibility.
Pixel-based smart objects also remember their original size and can be transformed multiple
times without loss.
Smart objects is the pixel-and vector based content.
Q: Can you organize layers as in photoshop?
Yes we can organize layes..
For example you create a Ball in 1st layer and then in second layer you create the
background. But you should lock all the layers and unlock the layer which u r working,
because unlocked layers will be active always(active means, if u want to drage the ball,
backgroung layers also will be affected)
Q: What is Gradients?
Gradients are a great way to introduce flashy, eye-catching graphics in your pages.
Q: How do you select an exact color to match?
There are two ways of doing this: The easiest way is to use the eyedropper tool to sample the
color as your foreground color make sure the foreground color square is selected when you
use the eyedropper tool then use a brush, pencil or the paint bucket tool to cover the area.
Alternatively, try using the Clone Stamp Tool. Alt+Click where you want to take the color
from, and then hold down the mouse key to cover up the new area.
Q: How do I crop an image?
Cropping an image allows you to cut out any portion of the image you don't like and/or make
an image smaller. This document contains the steps performed to crop an image in each of the
major image editors. To the right is a visual example of a large image, such as a image
scanned into the computer being cropped to a smaller image.

Q: For photoshop is cs3 really that much better than cs2 on an Intel Mac?

On both the Photoshop CS works fine. But on Mac it seems to speed up faster. The startup is
much faster than on windows but relative to the velocity of the CS2, it indeed is faster. So
yes, photoshop cs3 is better at functioning on an intel mac rater than cs2, due to the faster
startup

3. What is Resizing Images and Size Guide in Adobe Photoshop?
Ans. When working with images for a website, you will need to resize your images to suit
your particular purpose. Here is a basic guide that can help you decide on what is suitable.
(The units used here are pixels, which are standard units across all computer platforms. The
conversion between pixels and inches is roughly 1inch = 72 pixels or 1cm = 28 pixels) To use
this particular unit of measure you will need to adjust you preference settings by selecting
Edit > Preferences > Units and Rulers and changing the units and rulers to measure in pixels.

To resize a picture look on the menu bar and select Image > image size

Ans. Gradients are a great way to introduce eye-catching and flashy graphics in your pages.
5. What are the Photoshops work areas?
Ans. The Photoshops work area includes Application Bar, Option Bar, Panel Dock and Tools
panel.
6. How do we crop an image in Photoshop?
Ans. Cropping an image allows you to cut out any portion of the image you dont like and/or
make an image smaller. This document contains the steps performed to crop an image in each
of the major image editors. To the right is a visual example of a large image, such as a image
scanned into the computer being cropped to a smaller image.
7. How do we print the grid in Adobe Photoshop?
Ans. Put the non printing grid on how you want it, then take a screen capture (alt +
PrintScreen on PC) Open a new file, the size should be set as the size of the grab, and paste.
Crop away everything (the background of the photoshop window, etc.)except for the image
with grid on itand print.
8. Can you organize layers as in photoshop?
Ans. Yes we can organize layers.
For example, you create a Ball in 1st layer and then in second layer you create the
background. But you should lock all the layers and unlock the layer which you are working,
because unlocked layers will be active always(active means, if you want to drag the ball,
background layers also will be affected)
9. For photoshop is cs3 really that much better than cs2 on an Intel Mac?
Ans. On both the Photoshop CS works fine. But on Mac it seems to speed up faster. The startup is much faster than on windows but relative to the velocity of the CS2, it indeed is faster.
So yes, photoshop cs3 is better at functioning on an intel mac rather than cs2, due to the faster
start-up.
