Screencast #2: Useful keyboard shortcuts for Photoshop
July 5th, 2009
I received quite a few e-mails and even a comment on NWD about some of the “unseen” things I was doing in the very first screencast — namely, some of the keyboard shortcuts in Photoshop, how I could “nudge” things around in the Photoshop layers, how I could quickly create rectangles to be used in a basic website layout, and some basic cut, copy, and paste techniques.
Which reminds me of a Photoshop joke…
Person A:
How do you know when a newbie has been using Photoshop?
Person B:
From the scissors scratches on the monitor when he tried to cut the image.
You:
Uncontrolled laughter.
All dumb jokes aside, in this second screencast I’ll take you through some of those unseen Photoshop keyboard shortcuts as well as the nifty little cut, copy, and paste tricks I was using. (You can put the scissors down now. 
)

I never knew about those tricks in Photoshop. I think you just saved me hours and hours of work! Excellent stuff.

Thanks for the positive comments! The more I get the more I feel encouraged to make such screencasts!
