Photoshop, with it’s multitudes of tools can be a little intimidating. With this guide I will be showing you the basics of this great program
If you want to try photoshop, a download is available on the Adobe Website.
First off, I will begin by explaining all the features in the ‘tools’ window
- Basic movement tool, used to move layers, etc
- Selection/Marquee tool. Basically allows you to edit only what’s inside the selected area. Has the ability to be changed to circular, etc
- Quick Selection tool. It selects an area of the current layer.
- Cropping tool. Need to cut a part of your work off? Use this!
- Eyedropper. Used for colour sampling.
- Quite simple, brush tool emulates a paint brush, whilst the pencil emulates a pencil.
- Eraser.
- One of the unique parts of photoshop. Allows you to add a layer where one colour flows to another.
- Blur. Something too sharp? Want to create some depth? Here’s your tool!
