Thank you! This is the best Photoshop class I have seen.
Wow, thanks! I appreciate the kind words and the time you spend watching.
Excellent, Terry!
Thanks Richard!!
These videos are so good. I consider myself a competent Photoshop user, but these videos have filled gaps and clarified use. Thank you.
Excellent! I'm always learning as well. Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much. I've been using Photoshop for many years, but I learnt so much in just this half hour on selections 😊. You have a very easy manner and explain the process in an easy-to-follow way. I shall be checking out all your other videos.
You are so welcome!
Again, thank you so much!
You're very welcome!
You're very welcome!
Thank you sir for sharing your knowledge. You have helped me tremendously!!! Thank you!!!
You are very welcome Wallace. I'll keep making them.
I am very impressed so far. I've watched through Lesson 4. I'm a watercolor artist working on expanding to be able to make my own prints and cards. I purchased an Epson 8550 but have been unable to figure out how to use all the aspects of PS. I've watched others videos and then discovered yours. It was like the sun came out from behind the clouds. I watch and take multiple notes. I refer it to being back in college...lol Thank you much for taking the time to put all this wonderful information out there for all of us.
You are welcome Deborah, thanks for watching!
Another great video from Terry. This series contains some of the best instructional videos I have ever seen. Thank you Terry. 👍🏻
You are very welcome Ray.
Thank you so much sir!
You are most welcome! Thanks for watching.
Terry these instruction Videos are JUST what I need
Thank you. I'll keep them coming.
Great Vid Terry!!!!! 💗
Thank you for watching!
Thank you so much Terry for making really informative videos. They are pitched at a level that suits my ability to take in the information and I look forward to each and every one so far.
You are very welcome Alan.
Thank you for all the time and effort you have put into these videos. Makes photoshop less scary. I will definitely be using it more.
You're very welcome! Glad they are working for you.
Thanks so much for all these easy to understand videos! I've been binge-watching and taking notes. I used to handcolor black and white photos as a professional photographer and now I am scanning the old negs and trying to figure out how to handcolor them in Photoshop so they can be reproduced. I believe I'll have the skills to handcolor images once I learn more from you about masks and layers. Can't wait to get there!
Photoshop is PERFECT for that. You're going to love it.
A great teacher- 👌
Thank you! 😃
Thank you)
You are welcome, thanks for watching.
Thank you, Terry, as someone who only tingers with Photoshop, mostly using Lightroom finding these videos both interesting, well-paced, and learning new stuff. For example the "Colour Balance" tool, how did you pull that tool up, I assume a keyboard command. Have a good day
Hi Tom, thanks for watching. I have really embraced shortcuts. So much so, I find I use them and don't even think about it. I do plan to do a whole episode on shortcuts, once we get the basics out of the way. Until then, the keyboard shortcut for Color Balance is Mac: CMD B and for the PC it's CNTL B Take care.
Excellent Video. Learning a lot from your video Terry ❤
YES! Glad to hear it, I'll keep making them.
keep posting Terry, i have other two youtube. i will subscribe you from my other channels too.
Thank you so much!
I'm finding these videos really helpful to start using Photoshop. On this video I didnt see how you get the colour balance panel up - could you please let me know. Thanks
dont worry - ive read the other comments and found the answer!
Yes, I'm going to do a video in the series about shortcuts, like (MAC) Command B or (PC) Control B for color balance. Not all the shortcuts are intuitive, but you will learn all the important ones as you go. Thanks for watching.
Thanks Terry, but it would be so much easier to practice if you included a link to the images.
Thanks for that suggestion, I'll look into the logistics of that.
I have been dreading and avoiding learning Photoshop because of how daunting it is. I have tried several other videos attempting to get familiar with the program with no success. You are explaining every step so clearly, that I am finally understanding the program and how to use it!
I do have one question. If I missed this in the first video, I apologize. When you are in Lightroom and go to the edit in photoshop and that box pops up to ask if you want to edit the original or with Lightroom edits, which one should you be using? In another video I was watching, it said the best way to edit is to use the original photo without any Lightroom edits. If I edit an original photo with no edits in Photoshop then bring it back into Lightroom, because of the type of file it becomes, I will not have all the tools available to edit the photo in Lightroom. (ex. jpeg file vs raw file)
What is the correct process for that?
Hi Melissa, for me, I usually always edit with Lightroom edits. I typically change exposure and sometimes color, shadow detail ect. I don't see why I would want to do that all over again. Just my take.
@@tv510 thank you I was hoping it was ok to do it that way because I have quite a few that I need to fix a few minor things in Photoshop.
Thank you so much for these videos!
I do have a question- when you’re playing with the windows selections (about 8:30ish) and have multiple windows selected, how are you able to add multiple gradients on one single layer like that? PLEASE help! Thank you!
EDIT: I figured it out. It was because my gradient was set to gradient instead of classic gradient!
Awesome, I was just reviewing your question, glad you figured it out! Thanks for watching.
@@tv510absolutely! Looking forward to watching all of these videos and growing my skill. Thanks again!
What about selecting something with very complicated edges…like grass leafs or cutting out a pine tree with all the needles?
....Leaves, grass, hair and that sort of thing? Completely different way to make those types of selections. Not for beginners, but I will visit the one day as it is important skill to learn.
HI Terry - when you went back into photoshop and you found all the panels missing you clicked something to restore it - looked really easy but I cant catch what you did - can you just add a note to explain please , that would be really helpful
Sure. The way to get your background and it looking normal in Photoshop, is to just click the Photoshop app icon. On the Mac, all my app icons are across the bottom in what is called the "dock". If you just click the Photoshop icon it will bring it all back. I hope that helps.
For beginners: Color balance = Image > Advancements > Color Balance. It does not just pop up.
Maybe, I missed hearing cmd+b or ctrl+b shortcuts.
Thanks Jim, I'm putting together a list and a video just on short cuts and that should be available soon. I'm sure I've missed a few but will do better. Thanks for watching.
Having watched up to 11 mins, think I,ll just stick to Lightroom.
Hi Colin, thanks for watching. Yes, I use Lightroom all the time, but when I want to do something special, the tools in Photoshop just can't be beat. I know that PS is a deep program, but I also think it worth learning. Take care.
Fair enough, ill continue to watch your videos ( a number of repeat times :-) As a pensioner its a requirement Ha ha @@tv510
