Hi PTC Channel, i got a problem in photoshop When i go to preset manager, i cant see(also select) brushes. What i have to do ?

[@RealCK]

I don't know why, but whenever i hear his voice and see him smile, i just want to go and hug him. He's such a sweet human!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, Real CK!

[@appusingacademy4907]

Yes you say right! He is sweet human!🙂😊

[@leekafs2784]

sometimes I watch your tutorials just to see you teaching, you are one of the best online teachers I had ever seen. Keep the fire burning!

[@redfenix92]

I can not thank your enough for this channel! Just started my photoshop journey and you Sir are making it easier for all of us! Thank you!

[@gaslight1944]

Thank you so much for upping my photoshop game! You are the best instructor on KZbin! I appreciate all the time and effort you put into making us all the more creative. 😁

[@draganzagorac7639]

Great tutorial. I really like how you explain all the steps and why we do what we do. Keep up the good work.

[@dipaksingh1715]

You can explain eloquently everything. Great tutorial. 🙌

[@patsondominic4976]

Just came across this tutorial and couldn't wait to subscribe to your channel, I love how you elaborate and tutor its really awesome and handy to catch and understand.

[@jtinoco9859]

In my opinion you’re the best in presenting topics of interest and value related to learning PS. No gimmicks, no fuss, zero clickbaits. Your presentations showcase what’s important and how techniques relate or may be of use in other situations. And better yet, it’s free. “Al Cesar lo que es del Cesar.” Thank you JR.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, J Tinoco! I do try to stay away from clickbait. And if I use a clickbait title I try to overdeliver so that it doesn't feel like one.

[@allenbaxter3985]

Excellent tutorial as is usual. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@LuHeringer]

I just love the way you teach J.R. Because you REALLY teach. It's not just: do 'this' or do 'that', just replicate what I'm doing... You EXPLAIN WHY you're doing and HOW some features work so we can understand the concept behind that particular resource, how it works as a whole, and we can apply it to other types of projects in the future. Fantastic! Applause!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, Lu!

[@JacobSurland]

I second that! "the Why" is so important! Thanks for yet another great tutorial!

[@JacobVanko]

I just found your channel and immediately subscribed after watching for the first 2 minutes. I like that you explain the WHY and not just the HOW. Explaining the mechanics of anything to help people understand why they're performing the steps is the mark of a truly great teacher.

Very nice and very well described video you are a legend. I didn't learn only the lighting effect but also learnt the new tricks to manage layers and keep control over every step. Thanks, buddy nice job.

[@5120518]

Very clear explanation and a great effect on your photos! You probably can get this effect using gels during a photoshoot but it seems easier this way isn't it?

[@afpwebworks]

Thank you for taking this new approach to teaching photoshop. I found you previous videos didn’t teach me much except that photoshop operates with a confusing blizzard of click this and click that steps. Very few things in photoshop are intuitive, I find so I rarely use any of the techniques you have been teaching. Now with more time taken and more of the “why” covered it makes a lot more sense to me. Thank you

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, Mike! I'm glad that you find the new ones more beneficial

[@WBanduMedia07]

[@rbarrett111]

You mention the Wacom tablet. They are great. I wanted a Cintiq, but they're super expensive. I went looking for an alternative. I found the Huion pen display for about $200, and I bought one. It was a crushing disappointment. It's in a box of junk somewhere, now. Then I found the Gaomon pen display, also for $200. I almost didn't get it, due to the disappointment with the Huion - but I was desperate, so I went for it. The Gaomon pen display, at $200, is every bit as good as the Cintiq. I am not kidding. Performance. Pressure sensitivity. All the standard settings. All the shortcuts. It seems too good to be be true, but it is true. Every time I use this pen display, which is a lot, I bless the good people at Gaomon. So that's just a heads up, because it can be hard to find inexpensive equipment that actually works. The Gaomon works great.

Hola Jesús! Muchas gracias por tus tutoriales son increíbles! Hay alguna manera para que photoshop no cree automáticamente una máscara de capa cuando incorpores algún ajuste? Perdón por escribirlo en español pero es que se me da mejor que escribir en inglés! Saludos y gracias!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Si! Del panel de ajustes! (Windows -> Adjustments) En el panle de adjustes, has click el boton de opciones (flyout menu). y selecciona "disable Add Mask by Default."

[@CUADRADITOSS]

@@PhotoshopTrainingChannel gracias!! Me has arreglado bastante la vida jajajaja

[@danjatau4379]

I wonder if would be possible to create an action for dual color lighting..?

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Definitely. You can set create an action that sets up all the layers and you can just paint in the details with a mask.

also, after the job is done, how we put this image in a circle ( if the masking is dine within a grouped layer )

[@Mohammed-ph]

Hi Professor .. We want to update the perspective lessons in a simple way, thanks.

Applying the layer mask to a group is definitely a better, more flexible workflow. Thanks Jesus 👍

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, dunnymonster!

[@carlkristensen8398]

What's not to like? If not anything else, one can always get the techniques refined on this channel. By the way, if you some day should feel the urge to explain the Posterize adjustment layer, it would be fun, as I never found it useful in any way...........!

I noticed the left side of your shirt had a darkened soiled looking spot on your chest. I first thought you needed to put it in a masked group with a levels lightening layer, then I realized that it was the light behind your microphone that was causing the dirty looking shadow.
