Quick Selection in CS3 with John Reuter

I am very proud to say that with our last episode we exceeded 100,000 downloads for the Creative Photoshop Podcast. To me, this level of response to a longer, more measured approach to on-line Photoshop education is very gratifying. I thank all of you who have become subscribers to this podcast. This week we continue our look into Selections with a move into Photoshop CS3 and the Quick Selection Tool. The Quick Selection Tool is a relative of the Magic Wand but with impressive capabilities and editing options. It will certainly become a favorite of many Photoshop users. I am grateful to Russell Brown from Adobe and his earlier podcast for giving me the Adobe Insider description of the Refine Edge tool options. Since the CS3 Beta did not have a help file, it was a challenge to figure out Adobe’s intentions with some tools. Russell’s podcasts are my favorites and I always turn to them when I really want to learn about new techniques in Photoshop. I look forward to his return from his hiatus. I hope you enjoy this episode and look forward to breaking that 200,000-download level.
