As I informed you before, I wrote another Photoshop Manual for MakeUseOf.com – Advanced Features and Fun Photo Effects. This time I will post a small part of it here on TrueKolor. I will show you the basics of animation in Photoshop CS5 and you will create a morphing effect. As we proceed, you will use such tools as Liquify, Forward Warp, Bloat, Color Replacement, etc. Plus, you will learn the basics of creating an animation and saving it for the web.

As I promised before, I’ve finished writing another Photoshop Guide titled “An Idiot’s Guide to Photoshop, Part 4: Advanced Features and Fun Photo Effects” for MakeUseOf.com and now it is available for free download.

Photoshop is an enormous universe of useful tools, many of which we don’t really care about or never use. Sometimes because we just don’t know their functions, usefulness and efficiency, sometimes it’s just because there are so many tools in Photoshop, you can’t be aware of all of them.
Don’t waste your precious time going through all those standard menu paths to perform a small task! You have the magic shortcuts here, thoughtfully provided by Adobe engineers.
What is a silhouette? It’s an outline of any figure filled with a solid color, most commonly a dark shade. Like when you look at something against sunset.
Whether you are a professional photographer or just taking pictures as a hobby, you still need to tweak around with the photo to make it look better. And you don’t need a lab, as it was before digital photography, all you need now is a computer and photo retouching tools.
As a Photoshop freak, I spend many hours everyday doing something, experimenting, working and just having fun with the software. And it’s been like that for many years. But I am still not a guru, it is impossible to know everything about Photoshop. And sometimes I come up with little sweet things that make me wonder how come I didn’t know about them before?
