Of all the programs we have used in CAPP 30523, I am still the least confident about Adobe Photoshop CS3. I just feel that there are so many different ways to use Photoshop and that I am still a "noob" at using it. That's why I was so excited about finding this helpful website. The Photoshop Cafe has news, tutorials, videos, action guides, work samples, and software reviews all explicitly for Adobe Photoshop. My favorite part of the Photoshop Cafe is the tips page. This page describes many useful tips for mastering Adobe Photoshop CS3 and even the new CS4 version.
For example, here is a tip entitled "Want to use RGB Filters while working CMYK?".
"As you know some filters like the render filters are disabled in CMYK. Here is a neat tip, work in RGB mode with CMYK preview turned on. CTRL/CMD+Y build your file as normal then when you are finised, convert it to CMYK. This will allow all the filters to work, give you a smaller file size to work on (used 1/4 less memory) and you won't 'lose' your colors when you convert it. Only use CMYK for going to a commercial printing press."
