I just put this together for folks that have been asking about how to make a step-by-step process GIF in Photoshop! It's about 3 minutes and very simple, so hopefully someone finds it helpful.
Hey guys, that presentation of the zombie baseball team inspired me to use my textures more efficiently, and I would like to put my gloss and specular in the alpha channels of my diffuses and normals (if they have no transparency of course) Edit: Found it out, copy paste in photoshop is just confusing to me, gotta select…
I don't know how many people use this little trick, but I did a search on smart objects and didn't find any threads. That being said, I recently tried using smart objects to see if you could just link an image to a layer in Photoshop. Sure enough, you can! Lots of time saved not having to manually open files and copying…
I have a problem in photoshop where when I'm using the blur tool on a block of colored pixels, and near a transparent area the tool will try to blend in the transparent pixels. This makes it very hard for me to use the tool on fine edges. Obviously I'm doing something wrong. Am I using the tool incorrectly in terms of…

Masks are always your friend. It's very very rare that I'll even use a layer in photoshop without it having a mask. I thought I was proficient in photoshop, but I didn't even know about the tilde key showing the masked parts in red. I guess the old saying still holds true: "you learn something new every day".

I am not that great with scripts or actions. I am curious if anyone has stumbled upon a plugin or action I could download that would do this repetitive…

Anybody know what could be…
Hey, so there's a really useful photoshop filter called "cutout" that essentially takes an image and simplifies it into polygons and colors. I'm wondering if there's any way to achieve this effect in susbtance? Does anyone know if there's a custom node for sale that can do this?
Is there a setting in a Maya shader that does the same thing as curves in Photoshop. I'd like to set up a lightmap shader for a render that would display the same as the game. We are using overbright lightmaps 0-2 range so I'm wondering what setting I should use in my Maya shader to make the light appear over bright? I…
