GOTCHAS:
- The shear complexity!
- Watch out for help videos that are from another version.
- Sometimes a command will just not work as it should. Again the complexity. Always be prepared to SQR, Save-Quit-Restart.
- Beware of file size. A layered photograph can easily reach 250MB and if you convert for
- “Smart Objects” it can double in size. How big is your drive?
- Know what is destructive and what isn’t.
- If something isn't working right, check the tool you have selected and its options. Then check which layer you have selected!
