Photoshop Disasters

Fun, Photoshop 1 Comment »

In magazines, posters, ads we use Photoshop a lot to alter an image for multiple reasons. It’s ok to modify an image, but it shouldn’t be noticeable and viewer shouldn’t see weird things like a third hand! Photoshop Disasters is a new blog on horrible published Photoshop error. It’s fun to laugh on other work, specially when it your competitor, but make sure we won’t see your work in there!

It’s always better to not save it under your original image. Always keep your original somewhere. When you add a layer and save it, it will be save as a .psd file so you can work on it later.

Other way is to copy an image (per example on the Web, right click ‘Copy image’) and paste it directly in Photoshop. To paste it in Photoshop, you have to create a new file first, so from your FILE menu click on ‘New…’ (Or Ctrl + N). You’ll see, the dimension specify is exactly the one of your copied file.
