About
CS4 Digital Retouching For Fashion, Beauty And Portrait Photography
The expanded Photoshop CS4 edition is even more comprehensive than the first – written by a working retoucher who also enjoys communicating the skills through writing and teaching. 260 pages of tutorials presented as solutions to a range of cosmetic pixel problems. It has the feel of a good cookbook, using high-quality images to inspire and guide you. The tutorials are tried and tested in a professional workflow, and the same methods were used creating the illustrations.
This CS4 edition has a new section for the image as a whole, as well as a handful of complete workflow case studies. It adresses all the changes in CS4, integrating new ways of working and avoiding potential CS4 pitfalls. The e-book was originally conceived as a working tool for professional photographers and has proved to be a good source of new ideas and methods for digital operators, retouchers and graphic designers.
The tutorials are presented as step-by-step recipes, also explaining the thinking behind the method. There are plenty of tricks, but the emphasis is on developing good technique and skills whilst keeping the retouching subtle and editable. Although it’s by no means a beginners’ book, there’s enough detail for inexperienced Photoshop users, while the more advanced users can fast-track skim the bold text and headings.
Gry Garness works in London as a digital photographic retoucher and Adobe Photoshop trainer. She has for several years been an Adobe Certified Expert (ACE) and has a broad
range of other qualifications, amongst them a BA Hons Photography and Master
of Crafts Hairdresser (Norway). Since graduating from London College of
Printing in 1995 she has enjoyed a successful career within photography – shooting fashion, music and advertising for clients such as Body Shop, Sure,
American Express, Polydor, British Airways, Martini, Marie Claire, Black
Book, Scene, and Atomica magazine.

Brush Pilot - Desktop App For Previewing Adobe Photoshop Brushes
July 01, 2009
Brush Pilot™ is a fast and easy application for previewing Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Photoshop Elements Brushes (.abr), built exclusively for Mac OS X. Brush Pilot is designed to save you time by allowing you to instantly preview your brushes without having to load them into Photoshop.
When you launch Brush Pilot, it automatically finds every brush file on your system, so there's no need to navigate a Finder-like menu system. Brush Pilot also knows what version/s of Photoshop you have, and it separates your installed brushes from the rest.
Brush Pilot has a small footprint, uses very little system resources, and previews even the most ginormous brush files at breakneck speed. It's designed not to get in your way, but to make you more productive, as well as creatively inspired.
Brush Pilot is designed for productivity on more than one level. You can send files to the Trash, reveal their location in Finder, and even install selected files into all versions of Photoshop on your system with a single click, menus, Control/Right + Click, or keyboard shortcuts.

SiteGrinder Photoshop Plugin - Create Websites Instantly
There often seems to be a strict division of labor within the world of web design and development. Creative professionals tend to stick to the Photoshop domain, while those well-versed in scripting are left to the task of implementing their work. Indeed, the two realms are quite different from each other, to which any of us even vaguely familiar with either can easily attest.
Essentially, Photoshop is a no-holds-barred design studio, offering the artist a seemingly endless array of creative options. On the other hand, HTML, CSS, Java and the like follow strict rules of engagement, requiring the developer to take any number of esoteric concerns into consideration in order to ensure that designs are properly displayed on the web.
Turn Photoshop Into A Complete Web Design Tool
SiteGrinder seeks to bridge this gap between design and development. Basically, this program turns Photoshop into an easy-to-use and fully functional web design tool. With SiteGrinder, designers will now have the freedom to totally let their creativity loose and then, without skipping a beat, transfer their designs to the web. Bringing esthetic concerns together with more practical considerations, this program is an amazingly powerful tool that would make a fantastic addition to any web designer's bag of tricks.
Generate Your Web Pages Directly From Photoshop
By generating web pages directly from Photoshop, you'll be able to spend much more time on the creative end of the spectrum, since you'll know right off the bat how well particular designs will translate to the web. No more going back to the Photoshop drawing board after getting a phone call from your development team, telling you that what you had envisioned doesn't have a chance of being displayed on the web. You can immediately visually and interactively test your designs, which permits you to then make changes to either esthetics or functions while it's still relatively early on in the design process.
Pricing and Availability
Mac OS X and Windows versions of the SiteGrinder unlockable demo are available now via download. SiteGrinder can be ordered from Media Lab's online store.
