9 Quick Photoshop Tips for Beginners

1. Edit multiple text layers collectively
You do not necessarily have to edit each text layer separately if you should be making the very same changes to all of them. For example, hold down Ctrl or Cmd whenever choosing the written text layers from the Layers window to snag multiple ones, and make your changes via the tool bar.

2. View One-layer by Itself
Listed here is just another shortcut that can save you a great deal of time: If you need to see one layer by itself, there isn’t any need to uncheck all the other eye icons. Instead, hold down Alt and click the eye icon on the layer you do want to see (then click it again to go back).
3. Make use of paste in place
When you paste in a new layer, it goes in the center of the current image or selection automatically, but you can avoid this by using the Shift button as well as Ctrl+V (Cmd+V on a Mac). This keeps the selection’s original position and it works between pictures.
4. Quickly straighten a picture
Use the Ruler Tool (hidden behind the Eyedropper Tool) and then drag out a line across the horizon or another reference point that should be horizontally or vertically straight. Then pick Image, Image Rotation and Arbitrary, and Photoshop picks exactly the required value.
5. Dehaze landscape photos edit
Here is a very useful new feature added in the most recent Photoshop update. Choose Filter then Camera Raw Filter, open up the Effects panel and there’s now a Dehaze slider that reduces the haze effect you get when shooting sweeping landscape shots.
6. Insert dummy text
Lots of people use Photoshop to mock up layouts for websites and the printed page, and if you need to fill in an area with some dummy text then you don’t need to tire out your fingers typing it–just choose Paste Lorem Ipsum from the Type menu instead.
7. Use any picture as a brush
Open the Edit menu, then pick Define Brush Preset to use the current image (or pick) as a brush. White areas in the source image count as translucent and black areas are where the virtual ink will hit the virtual canvas, so tweak the picture accordingly.
8. Cycle between fonts
Photoshop does not always have the most user-friendly text editing interface, but this quick tip can make life easier: with some text selected inside a layer, click on the font selection drop down list on the tool bar.
9. Rotate the view, maybe not the image
You might want to make use of a different angle for retouching, however, you don’t have to rotate the image it self: press R (or even click-and-hold on the Hand Tool icon) to find the Rotate View Tool, which then lets you spin the picture across on screen without rotating the true image.

For the file format, you will have two choices: TIFF (Tag Image File Format) or PSD (Photoshop Document). This seems like a no brainer since we are working with two Adobe Products and Photoshop happens to be one of the Applications we are working with. Logic says to use PSD, right? Logic be damned! Adobe Engineers themselves have suggested, along with other leaders in the industry, that the best file type to use is the TIFF file format. When you choose PSD, you are warned how PSD files can be less efficient than TIFF files with respect to metadata updates. Also, make sure “Maximize Compatibility” checkbox is clicked on. But why bother with all of this?!? Save yourself the headaches and use the TIFF file format. All of your layers will be saved and in tact for further processing down the road. source: internet If u need a free photoshop alternative that give you a productive solution,  photoshop online  will be a great option.

Finally! We are now ready to take this wonderful work of ART and put it out on social media for all to see and envy! What should we do? What settings? sRGB? ProPhoto? Adobe???? ARGH! This is simple! Since the vast majority of displays out today are sRGB capable, your best bet and recommended choice would be JPEG and sRGB. sRGB will assure you that it looks very much the same over a large amount of different displays. Personally, when I have tested this exporting bright, vibrant and saturated colors, there tends to be a little fall off from the displayed image in Lightroom. It is very slight and remember, you’re going from a HUGE color space to a much smaller one. I have also exported as ProPhoto and, to me, it looks exactly as it did in Lightroom. I use an iMac 5k, and an iPhone 7 – maybe they display the colors nicely!! To be honest, it looks better to me exported as ProPhoto and that is against what most say you should be doing (exporting to sRGB is the norm). If you chose to

1. Easier marquee selections Hold down Alt to start a selection at the centre point with any Marquee tool, and then hold Space to temporarily move the selection around. 2. Undo, undo, undo You probably know that Cmd/Ctrl+Z is Undo, but you may not know Cmd/Ctrl+Alt+Z lets you undo more than one history state. 3. 1000 history states Go to Edit>Preferences>Performance to change the number of History states up to a maximum of 1000. Beware though of the effect that this has on performance. 4. Cycle blend modes Shift + or – will cycle through different layer Blend Modes, so long as you don’t have a tool that uses Blend Mode options settings. 5. Rotating patterns You can make amazing kaleidoscopic patterns with the help of a keyboard shortcut. Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+Alt+T lets you duplicate a layer and repeat a transformation in one go. To demonstrate, we’ve made a narrow glowing shape by squeezing a lens flare effect, but you can use any shape, image or effect you like. First, make
