Creating a Feature Image
-
Hey there groovers, this video was inspired by Mike in our office who insisted that I show this technique, infact as I was working away quietly to myself this morning he leaned over my shoulder and said “Hey Numbnuts, why don’t you show our readers and members how to do that?!”. So what do you say to that? Like any good working relationship I replied with “No problems butt face” and this is the result:

I’ve never used the patch tool, so it was cool to get to see this at work.

wow Shane
,i alway use this way and i never thought that it’s the easy one to do it
1- u r a really nice and funny guy
2- that was easy, best part i love about it when u just simply copy and paste part of the background and started to resize it
Nice pic by the way
Thank you

Shane, to see the freetransform guides on large photos, use Control+Zero. And with the copy paste, make your selection, thepress Control=Alt then drag into position. Ernie

Hey, Shane,
When you bring in an overly large photo, as you did with this video, if you hit cmd-T to transform the photo, then hit cmd-0 (zero), the work area will zoom out far enough that you can see all 4 corners of your Transform box.
Then you can just Shift-drag or Alt-Shift-drag your corners to a more manageable size.
I’m sure you knew this, but people who don’t might really benefit from knowing that in 2 quick steps, their photo’s placed, and they’re back to learning from your great videos.
Keep up the good work. I never use the patch or clone tools, so this was perfect for me.

Hi, I enjoyed that video.It looked a bit hard to me. I have not got the time to fiddle with my photo’s at the moment. Your are a very good teacher. I need to learn how to use my Slr first. Your baby must be growing up!

Thanks Shane, That was a welcome 10 minute break from work.
Your videos are always fun to watch, and very informative.
